A Flounder is as Flounder does.

You're definitely on their list.  The question to ask next is what list it is.

So?  It isn't flatfish.
I've been around long enough to recognize his style.

Do you have any evidence of this?

I doubt that it is flatfish.  Very doubtful.

They are grasping at straws.
With the COLA Cabal all you have to do is make a statement, no matter 
how false, and wait for the rest of the Cabal to back you up.

It's rather sick.

It is either flatfish or Snit Michael Glasser

His posting style has enough similarities to both of them, and also the way 
he changed from "reasonable newcomer" to outright troll

I've been around Jim over in CSMA long enough to know him.
It isn't flatfish.
When Jim starts talking about professional audio work, then you can call him 
flatfish.

It was discovered 11 years ago, and then later developments undid the fix,
Flounder.  I mean, "Jim".

Now tell us about Microsoft's record in fixing long-standing bugs.
I'll take "Linux's" opne-book record anyday.

Check out kernel.org and the Linux Kernel Mailing List.  Cool stuff!
Much better than the whinings of faux Linux "advocates" like Flounder.
