It is said:

"Don't argue with idiots. It only makes more difficult for the others to 
see the difference between you and them".

I am not sure if I can see any difference between you guys...

Well, if I were going to bed with someone, I think I'd prefer a "pussy"
to a "prick"! ;-P

Cheers!

Nah - I just consider it "banter". :-)

Just for the sake of keeping in the spirit of things:

"A wise man is never insulted, for the Truth will increase his wisdom,
and an Untruth is not worthy of note."

I have no idea who said it first, but I like it. It gives me the
opportunity to pretend I'm wise. ;-)

Cheers!

"We?"

Tonto and the Lone Ranger were out of ammunition and surrounded by
Indians, and the Lone Ranger said, "What are we going to do, Tonto?"
To which Tonto replied, "What you mean 'we', white man?"

Yes, I think we are all missing something here.

I can tell from your posts that you don't offend easily.  I hope you
did not think any of my posts were criticizing you.

Oops...
I missed that one earlier.

Go back and read the post again and you might find that I wasn't
making physical threats, but rather making allusions to the
background you must have had in order to be speaking from
"experience".

And, a correction: "Adversary" isn't for the birds, "aversary" is.

In fact, I'm Minnesotan. :-)

Not at all.  The purity of simulation allows the vagaries of the
real world (of which simulation is a part, BTW) to be studied in
ways which would be impossible without it. 

Sorry you didn't get it.

Never mind predicting the behavior of circuits using 100 million
transistors, Just think about a wind tunnel and how many lives
_haven't_ been lost because of that sort of simulation.

Even yours, perhaps, in which case had it not been for simulation,
which you decry, we wouldn't be having this discussion.

Again, not at all. (IMO, of course)

Most of us here are bright enough to extrapolate an end given a
beginning and a bit or two of data, and that's the fun of it,
comparing the ends.  But you're new here, aren't you? 

Welcome to the garden of earthly delights!

I'm sure you'll fit in just fine.

Well 4Q2!

Ah, profanity!  The language of the gods.  Gettin' down and dirty
and not pulling any punches, and you still have to call someone
who's fucked your sister, "Dad" ? 

Are you as fat as Guy Macon?

Strange, but I get a vision of you as a porker.  Maybe just the way
you write.

Yes, of course you're right, and I'm shit (with a capital "I")

Adversary?  That's for the birds.  How sweet it would have been if I
hadn't had to explain it.

That's true, but so far your vague threats don't carry much weight.

Are you .gov and you want to kill me because I can easily de
monstrate how fucking stupid you are?

Amazing medium, this.

But then we all know that.
