Actually, "well said" means "you said that well". It makes no comment on the completeness of the underlying facts, or whether one knows the underlying facts. My view about which facts are relevant to the issue differs from yours. I see a swamp (more accurately, a cesspool) into which all sorts of creatures voluntarily wade. They get bitten by all sorts of other unsavory creatures while in the swamp.

To me, the sensible response to that is not to chastise the game warden for failing to drain the swamp; it is for the creature who feels injured from his trips to the swamp to find someplace else to wade, perhaps a peaceful suburban swimming hole with chlorinated water and a lifeguard.

We did have an exchange on the GWB thread some time ago, and I commented on one or more of your posts at that time. I found them to be nonsense, and I said so. You apparently succeeded in shrugging that off since you don't even recall it.

As for protecting your "good name", I will leave that fish floating in the barrel for someone else to shoot. I think Bob is doing a good job running the site and continue to approve of his response to your tirade.
