       Sidney, like some others who participate on newsgroups, doesn't seem to   
   really care about what the topic is or what others thing or don't think. The   
   whole point is to get something going so he can make out how right he is and   
   how wrong they are. Over and over and over.   
       Actually, does anyone know that Sidney is a "he"?  He writes a lot like   
   someone else I used to know on newsgroups, who would use fake IDs but was a   
   woman. At least so I was told.
