- I'm an optimist, and I'd liek to think that all of us are capable of
- overlooking past idiocies if behavior changes. If Kevin stopped
- posting the bilge and stuck strictly to those things he posts
- intelligently on, I would happily change my opinions of him.
- Hell, I'd even change my opinion of Peter "Have I told you my SAT
- scores lately" Nyikos if he started acting rational.
