	 Proposition G: You insane idiots can no longer remember what you 
			disagreed about in the first place, so now you simply
			argue about meaningless semantics and debating 
			technique.

         Proposition H: The above declaration G would not necessarily 
			constitute a proof that you are a clique of fools,
			unless you actually believed the aforementioned 
			argument to be an intellectual discussion, the       
			resolution of which would possess some intrinsic
			importance in the pursuit of truth.

         Conclusion 5:  You can't, you do, you do, and you are.

	 Proposition I: None of which would certainly warrant an attempt
			to impede your peaceful enjoyment of alt.flame
			were it not for the incredible banality of your 
			discussion and the amazing waste of bandwidth consumed
			not only by this circle-jerk but primarily by the 
			inclusion of the last twenty or so pearls of wisdom
			you cannot bear to delete from the attributed quotes.

         Proposition J: ALL of which might still somehow be overlooked if 
			you simply had no place to go or were not unbearably
			pretentious jerks replete with smug undeserved 
			arrogance derived from Conclusion 5.
			
	  Conclusion 6: It does, you do, you are, and it's not.

     Summary Judgement: What an amazing bunch of nincompoops you are.
                        You have alt.fan.kevin-darcy, talk.abortion...  why
			do you crosspost this blithering idiocy to alt.flame
			as though anyone other than yourselves could 
          		possibly care? It's not clever, it's not meaningful,
			it's not flaming, and it's not even entertaining.

			What total schmoos you are.	
			Do you actually chortle with glee when you 
			write your bullshit?
