yeah, what he said. Perhaps your best post in my estimation...
soon as these scientists get off their butts and talk in vague biochemical generalities too instead of only in vague physics generalities,
we will almost be talking about the real world

Finally I'm cutting loose from this forum
for a while. Why now? Let me spare you the explanation...
I take the greatest pleasure in saying farewell
to you, Harv. You were the most annoying to me.
Congratulations!
Yanniru was close, but his continuing factual errors and dis-logic made it kind of pitiful. Since you almost never invoked any facts at all, you win the prize. Plus, you showed me several new ways to be nasty while seeming nice! Alexander didn't even come close in this competition.
In the event I return to this forum, I will probably have forgotten, so I might need a little
extra annoyment.... can't rest on your laurels, ya know.
