I think you were both pretty low in your mud slinging, but I understand you are both pissed off at each other, and if I consider how you both view the world, I can understand why each of you is angry with the other. It is tempting to be personal when you are annoyed, or angry, or royally pissed off.

Now I expect both of you to tell me how not pissed off you are. That is the way things go on SI.

We all want to be able to go after the people we don't like and call it "justice", or "humor", and yet if people go after us we want to insult them and think them very very misled individuals. It is very funny, really. It is a microcosm for any little border dispute anywhere in the world. The other guy or gal is always the be all end all of evil. A world view which I've always found amusing, even if it is tempting.
