... while your adoption of an
indiscriminate attack on an entire profession in the face of your empirical
experience with at least two of its members that must have, in all fairness,
indicated to you that decent human beings, whose company you have apparently
enjoyed, do practice law, with an obvious effort to be true to their duties
and fair in matters economic, is in itself not surprising, given the modus
opperandum of your internet persona (we lawyers have a weakness for latin,
no matter how poorly spelled), and the possibility that this entire
confrontation finds its origin in simple boredom, an objective observer can
only wonder at how the paucity of passion that you feel for your own work
is revealed by your suggestion that a similar attack on your endeavors would
fail to elicit a defensive response. ...

Holy **** !! That's one hell of a sentence. Have you been taking lessons
on turgid, incomprehensible run-on sentences from our resident expert ?

Anyway, I did not indiscriminately attack an entire profession, I posted
a rhetorical question and a newspaper blurb, the latter Jeffie didn't even
bother to read by the way, and so now I'm waging weak minded attacks on
all lawyers.

An objective observer might have cause to wonder why some lawyers are so
sensitive and defensive.

oh, well, i suppose i could have just said "**** you, forty", and had
about the same effect upon your thought processes.

Yeah, but there's something to be said for a good tirade, hope you
enjoyed writing it as much as I enjoyed reading it. ;-)
