HUMOR: How to put an end to a flame war

[Alice Yucht <aliceinfo@EXCITE.COM>]

From another list I'm on:
===============
How to put an end to a flame war:
I refer to your latest discharge of plebeian verbiage; in which, you have
proven, once again, that there is no such thing as unutterable nonsense.
Just as the strength of a solitary brick will not save a poorly built
structure, your bold typeface does not redeem your craven incoherent words.

If there's an idea in your head, it's in solitary confinement. If ignorance
were a disability, you'd get the full pension. A long period of non-posting
would be most welcome on your part. As Abba Eban so aptly said: "His
ignorance is encyclopedic."

Calling you dull is a gross underestimation of just how tedious you are.
You have the personality of a damp sponge and the appeal of a moldy sweat
sock. Why don't you close your mouth before someone sticks an apple in it?
Maybe you wouldn't read like such a pathetic loser if you weren't
intellectually outclassed by dead sheep; if the chief excitement in your
meaningless life wasn't spotting people who are fatter than you are, or if
you didn't have a face that would give Freddie Kruger nightmares. Nah, of
course you would.

Please try to have some small idea of what in the hell you're talking about
before you try to post again.
