I've been Cellardwelling since July of 2002, and despite the desire of some to dismiss me as a nutty toolbox, Lumberjim has never felt that urge in all that time... in the political sandbox or out.

UT has bitched at me -- actually bitched -- exactly once.

I suppose it's incumbent on me to point out to some folks who don't get it and don't want to, that there is a difference between being annoying and being crazy. I have values that many of my opponents never attained to, and hesitate to take up...

ETA: as for whether Spexx is learning anything from this thread, read the bottom end of p. 25 and draw your own conclusions. I have.

You don't read as many posts as you write, and when you do, you don't pick up nuance.

There is that which I shall and should accept, and there is that which I should ignore. I ignore and let pass from me the poor ideas and hemipygian thought that my bitterest opposition frequently comes up with, as things unworthy of me. They may be satisfied with such second- and third-bests; not me. I'm after something better than that, and it shows.

I think you can stop rambling about "nuance." I perceive it well enough to know when it's worth it and when it's worthless. A lot of the time, it's wholly worthless -- and can you tell when it's worthless? A lot of the time it doesn't appear certain of us can. These impoverished ones are the type to scream at me the loudest.
