Do you really want the ugliness of your character revealed here?  So be it, 
fool:

I could live with – and killfile forever – such a troll.  However, the most 
disgusting aspect of your false character is that you actually think you can 
make up for that extreme hostility with subsequent extreme reverence, (and 
I, believing in the good core in people, continuously fall for it):

<news:bd93fc08-185a-4614-91c2-a78ea5b6beaa@n11g2000yqe.googlegroups.com>
<news:c6cce191-f2f8-487a-ae89-cb775395730a@r3g2000yqe.googlegroups.com>

That is only what is still online, and from it what I cared to find for this 
occasion.  I was only halfway those the articles matching your name.

Now I know I might not be considered the nicest person around because of the 
facts that I state, but at least I am *honest*: When I say something, I say 
what I think, and I do what I say.  If I sometimes target the person instead 
of the behavior or the argument in question, it is only accidentally, under 
rather extreme circumstances, when forced to react, like now.  For example, 
you have seldom, if ever, seen me talking bad about people behind their back 
like you do, seemingly out of habit.

No, I am still arguing against your interpretation.  Because I know what I 
wrote and how I meant it, and it was not what you misconstrue it to be.

> I know quite well that you don't agree with my interpretation.

So, there really is nothing else to discuss if all you can base your 
argument on is your interpretation, and if you would not accept the 
possibility that your interpretation could be (and in this case is) wrong.

> I've stated my point there; I'm not trying to convince you.

But you are trying to convince everyone else that your interpretation is 
correct when it has been showed by at least two people that it is not.  Now 
where is the logic in that?

I have made *several* legitimate arguments against your interpretation, 
which is the primary point in question here.  The secondary point that I 
debated is your are preceeding from *another* false assumption: the single 
possibility for the return value of Function.prototype.toString() for a 
given function, regardless of the implementation.

You have chosen to ignore all of them and label them “irrelevant”.  I am not 
going to repeat them for you because quite frankly I have better things to 
do than to teach you how to read properly.

Me too.  He cannot be convinced who thinks he cannot be wrong.

Yes, I know the rest of your fallacious argument all too well.

I *have* responded to your false statement which says that I would “deny” 
your previous factual statement.  It is *your* turn now.
