I said what I said, and I stand by it. The fellow (I have not gone back to
look up who it was) who took the tack of "Oh, yeah!?! PROVE it!" came across
to me as a moron. I do not say that he is one (although I admit that this is
a very small distinction), but that IS how he struck me.  Will you fault me

was me.
