   ### - smile, we've had our clashes over the years but you're wrong if you   
   think i despise anyone, and have, from an outsider's pov, actually enjoyed   
   our encounters in various ways coz he's fairly smart albeit somewhat   
   erratic, and even if we don't always agree which was fairly often...   
      
   plus you've asked/puzzled-over exactly this same question re lowrider too,   
   about how i could possibly talk to him considering his shitty behaviour,   
   and i told you then that am able to speak to him in exactly the same way   
   am still able to speak to 'you', whose behaviour has been as equally   
   shitty if not worse!   
      
   so go figure :)

   ### - lol, and yet only the other day you lectured me re keeping this   
   place going, saying: don't i think it's possible for people (meaning you)   
   to change their minds occasionally??   
      
   lol riiiiight...  :)

   ### - (really laffing) well that's hardly the only 'possible' conclusion   
   is it heh...   
      
   no, that's just your overly hasty + sloppy conclusion clearly based on   
   faulty reasoning and a very nasty disposition haha, something of a   
   repeating pattern of yours, one that's become rather predictable to say   
   the least...   
      
   iow: predictably slow: tap him on the shoulder on tuesday and on wednesday   
   afternoon he turns round and says: huh? wot??   
      
   and because 'intelligence' is rather difficult to define, there being all   
   kinds of tests to measure it and stuff but defining it remains   
   controversial...   
      
   imho though, intelligence is just how rapidly or not one's brain   
   communicates with other parts of itself, how fast it sparks across from   
   one side to the other & back... a measure of electrical resistance perhaps   
   heh: the less resistance the faster the flow of current through the entire   
   system + the faster it coordinates & correlates information overall...   
      
   a moron, in that sense, being ponderous and slow witted; slow to realise   
   the implications of any given argument if in fact he gets them at all...   
   on the other end of that scale: people who're so fast they can almost take   
   the words out of your mouth before you even speak them they're operating   
   at such a rapid pace of information processing, consequently they're   
   always several steps ahead all the time...   
      
   intelligence not being 'how much' a person knows, so much as 'how fast'   
   they operate at ;)
