Yes, I remember... those assholes never even tried to read the manuscript.
If they did, they'd save me a year's work. I published it anyway.
But, it's for the other folks, I know that you have it, the message was
"hi" to all, and then a reply to yours.

I dislike diplomacy. I'm usually extremely straightforward, and if someone
has a problem with it, he can kiss my ass.

Oh, I talked with some guys on usenet recently... atheists, "it's all in
your head" and "spiritual experience is just crazy people hallucinating",
"nothing beyond the physical" kind of theories.

I seem to have a problem with another sort, the ones with zero empathy, the

As I said, you liked it. I didn't say that you learnt it there.
