Lenover21 is on record saying that good manners are a sign of weakness. Oddly enough, the opposite is true. Bluff, bluster, insults and invective are a pretty good sign of a weak argument and often of insecurity. Always has been and always will be. - Mike KB3EIA - |

Bluff, bluster, insults and invective are a pretty good sign of a weak argument and often of insecurity. Always has been and always will be. So spake the PCTA extra... Another PCTA extra used a totally anonymous AOL screen name, no identity given, no signature, just a bunch of Jimmy phrases. Tsk, tsk. Now you accuse another PCTA extra of "insecurity" and "weakness!" How droll. beep beep and a hi hi. |

Lenover21 is on record saying that good manners are a sign of weakness. Oddly enough, the opposite is true. Exactly. Bluff, bluster, insults and invective are a pretty good sign of a weak argument and often of insecurity. Very true. Some people simply cannot tolerate disagreement with their cherished opinions, and lash out at those who disagree. Even worse, when they are proved to be in error, some people get *really* mad. But it doesn't change the facts. Eventually the various forms of personal attack turn into variations on the theme "shut up". Of course that's amazingly ineffective in a newsgroup. Always has been and always will be. Absolutely. 73 de Jim, N2EY |
