- I find it far more effective to "give someone a hard time" by turning the
- spotlight on THEIR ignorance, than, as Keegan does, constantly turning the
- spotlight on HIS OWN ignorance, and hoping I'll eventually get annoyed by
- the display of illogic.

- I don't mind being baited, as long as each and every exchange shows the
- baiter to be more ignorant and immature than I am. Every time Keegan insists
- that "Kellmeyer and Darcy" is an "individual", he makes himself look stupider.
- I find that faintly amusing. My only "reaction" to the bait is to gingerly
- strip the surface layer from his propagandistic phrasings so as to reveal
- the basic stupidity of his claim, i.e. that "Kellmeyer and Darcy" is an
- "individual". What a loser...
