Since I removed talk.abortion from the follow-ups of the post you are
replying to and you added it back in, I am gratified to know that you
would never have complained about posting inappropriately to newsgroups by
any individual. Or have you? Nah that would make you a hypocrite.

Oooh I do love the irony of your statement given the drivel you have 
posted about people not agreeing with you. Oh well. And I note further 
delusions from you concerning text that you appear to see yet to normal 
people does not appear anywhere. Have you sought help yet or perhaps you 
are too embarassed?

: Unfortunately for you, those of us with intelligence

Speaking for others who don't share your characteristics may be 
considered rude. Including yourself with the those who posess 
intelligence is even ruder.

Ooooo a spelling flame. Such wit, such bravado, resorting to spelling 
flames. What next? Are you going to tell me to go fuck myself or are you 
saving that for an even more special time when even your spelling flames 
don't quite demonstrate how pathetic you have become in your apparent 
need to strike back?

Oh he's doing something adequately alright but not quite what he had in 
mind I would imagine. I haven't laughed so hard at the stubborness 
displayed in the defense of stupidity as I have with Iolo. He's 
entertaining to say the least.

: Hmmm. Do they let you have sharp objects in there?

Did you think that one up all by yourself or did someone give you a list 
and suggest you enter the comments from the list at random, despite 
whether they are responsive to the preceeding text or not?

You can do better than this, can't you? If you can't there is no shame in 
asking for help from your freinds. Freinds would never let freinds 
embarrass themselves as you are doing now if they could possibly help. 
Prehaps your pride is preventing you from accepting their help?

Very good. We will see how long that lasts however.

: So you admit that keegan does these things?

Ahhhh reading comprehension was never your strong suit was it? I was 
speaking on those things you claimed on my behalf to beleive. Nothing 
more nor less should be construed from those comments. 

: Good, that's a

Ooooh another spelling flame. Has anyone explained to you that spelling 
flames are the avenue of those who can't argue? Or do they prefer to 
watch you make a buffoon out of yourself?

I'm sorry I guess you truly don't understand what was written. If you 
like I can use small words from now on if you think that would help.

: No, it was simply incorrect. As is your spelling - specifically, 
: of "perhaps" and "understand" above.

Oooooh more spelling flames. Stop, your merciless. Such wit, such 
intelligence, using spelling flames to rebut your opponents comments when 
many would consider that a sign of how lame you are. You are a 
genius for risking that and venturing ahead where most people with more 
than a brain cell would fear to tread. Bravo.

Nah, spelling flames are the things you see from children.
