Cool term..."feral creature." Thanks for using it several times. That helps to get it into my functional vocab. I am going to try to find ways to use it where I'm not actually flaming a particular individual (like talking with my kids about a character in a movie).

I enjoyed your use of the term "feral" here.

Duray once referred to a couple of SI members as "stinking feral zombies", which was particularly apt.

Good response. Those who feel no sense of being accountable are ill suited to the task of cooperating with others for mutual benefit. On the other hand, CH has every right to eschew social norms of behaviour provided he breaks no laws...
