  Obviously you don't know me very well, or you wouldn't have to ask that :-)
I have problems with people who don't consider what they are saying before
they say it, and in the mood I am in currently, I will express my opinion
on it in whatever form I feel necessary to get the point across. If you
start in on me with a rational and coherent argument, I will respond in
a like manner, but if you spew drivel...well, you know. Call me short
tempered, or just intolerant of other peoples complete lack of thought
if you want, but several encounters with pea-brained idiots already
this week have shown me the value of being rude. Generally people
who are unable to grasp the concept of logic or reason respond
better to outright abuse and insults, rather than reasoned arguments.
I can give you an example if you want, just let me know. If you noticed,
I have not insulted you at all here :-) No doubt that is because you
made me aware of your opinion in an intelligent manner.

To keep this message on the Subject: Well, Mr. Lau, how about finding out
EXACTLY what is planned for the rose garden? I for one would be most
interested to know the plan, and I'm sure others would be equally as
appreciative....
