   He's lazy, ghost... He does not grasp the 'zeitgeist'.   
      
   his mind is locked in the 'tangible world' not realizing that reality   
   is wherever you project your mind / thoughts / being: 'wherever you go   
   there you are.' To be on-line for him appears to be an attempt to   
   project his troubled RL being into some 'different, uncomfortable,   
   unreal place' and he's attempting to make that place 'like' the 'real   
   world'.   
      
   It's not and won't ever likely be.   
      
   If he was interested he'd grok the 'spirit' of the denizens of this   
   place instead of whining. With a little effort one can grasp who   
   someone is just by reading what they say and not get distracted by   
   'hand waving' or 'toe tapping'. I suspect he can't focus his thinking   
   long enough to do that-- he's too easily distracted.   
      
   He has wondered how I can poke fun at the south and its "culture". How   
   do I know? It's simple: I was born here but grew up in the west. I   
   returned to the south almost two years ago. I know what its about and   
   I understand its general 'bonehead' morality-- i deal with it every   
   day... and out of sheer cussedness I don't agree with that   
   'boneheadedness'.   
      
   I think he needs to go visit other places on usenet to see how kindly   
   he has been treated here.
