   Are you in fact claiming that you do not indeed suffer from no sense of   
   confusion regarding the implicit irony of having, and continuing to   
   maintain a polite discussion in what is ostensibly regarded as a flame   
   group? If so, and possibly not, as the case may be, then you should be   
   thinking, "did he fire five shots, or was it six", and then you should   
   be asking yourself if you feel lucky...   
      
   I like the insult, it was almost subtle. (sorry, I guess I still haven't   
   got a handle on this flame thing :<( )
