The former is of course true, but nonetheless, as I said, you substantially<br>
misrepresented what the man said, and your non-sequitur objection<br>
doesn't change that. People sufficiently interested can consult primary<br>
sources, which I provided in my original post as part of great care to<br>
stick to fair commentary and good information.<br>
<br>
His views aren't mine, so I'm not going to detail the places where you<br>
got things haplessly wrong in restating his csail-related postings,<br>
because the natural result would be that a lot of -other- people would<br>
then become a 'Rick Moen said [foo]' ragemob, and I'm just not nearly<br>
that stupid.<br>

Without objection, I note that you changed the subject. And I'm _still_ <br>
not interested in arguing with you.<br>
