>As to Rod, I discount a great deal of what he says, as I think he picks up on tidbits of lingo without any true understanding of the subject matter.

Yea, let us not forget when he read the humor column, and thinking it was an actual press release, posted an authoritative dissertation on the latest Java VM technology, the "CheapBox 3000" that enabled old 8080 PC's to run 300% faster than a Pentium system. He went on to redicule me after I posted a response telling him I did not believe that such a "CheapBox" was technically possible. The best part was when he backpeddled and said he was going to write to the author and tell him he shouldn't make his humor colum look so real. Yep, we have a real expert in Rod.

I do not have any problem with contrary opinions. However, I have a hard time with people who jump on the thread, make wildly speculative assertions, and then berate and belittle anybody who disagrees. And Rod is clearly the master of this type of childish behavior.
