Everything I say you twist into some sort of crime. You single handedly cut the traffic in the Java news groups with your personal attacks on everyone. You have them afraid to speak. You bawl people out for asking questions. You bawl people out for answering. Just stick to the facts and stop commenting on motivations. You normally nit pick just so you can find some excuse to put people down, so I don't usually read your posts.
