You and Wolfgang share a trait, at least as it appears to me from your
postings. The two of you often convey in your posts that each of you
think you are the sole arbiter of THE TRUTH and that people who don't
see things YOUR way are fools or idiots or liars or putzes or stupid
or ........... For me, especially in social situations, but in many
(most?) other areas as well, there is no THE TRUTH. IMO, it's usually
the people who feel that THEY know THE TRUTH who are the fools.

Willi, don't include Wolfie with Forty. His posts are usually witty, cleaver,
humorous, thought provoking, sometimes totally nuts and completely off the
wall, but never mean spirited or vicious. He rarely resorts to name calling.
He loves to mix it up and I don't think I've ever heard him claim to be the
"sole arbiter of THE TRUTH." His tongue is usually firmly planted in his
cheek.

You can't say any of those things about Forty and a lot of other big blow-
hards who love to hear themselves talk on this newsgroup.
