It's true.

No, I haven't in a while.

Only in this one post, my first since I killfiled him, not
"endlessly." That was the point of contention. To say that is as
fraudulent as the title of the movie "The Neverending Story." ;-)

Oh, you're confused. I'm not referring to Eric Chomko. I'm talking
about "casioculture." I'm still replying to Eric, though even that is
not "endlessly." I'm ignoring most of his idiocy, even (particularly,
in fact) when he pathetically attempts to insult me.

"casioculture" (isn't it amusing that these loons think that they have
to be anonymous when they speak truth to power
^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^Hnonsense to indifference?) is who George was
replying to.
