>> Further he is not interested in intellectual debate - only in controversy. This is precisely correct. Years ago, when I first encountered him, I found that his posts were designed to draw you in, but when you responded with an argument he couldn't counter on an intellectual basis, he used the usual tactics (moving goalposts, straw men, or simply turning tail and running). While some of his posts are so absurd as to be difficult to ignore, I long ago concluded it was pretty much like arguing with tejek or American Spirit.

Koan has been very helpful to me in formulating ideas and opinions. When I'm ever in doubt about anything I consult with Koan and do the exact opposite. I have the complete confidence of being right 100% of the time. aynrandlexicon.com blogs.telegraph.co.uk
