   It is a lack of technical ability on your part which is unable to judge   
   whether such a correct simulation is possible.  Everybody else sees that   
   it is not, so further questions about it are non-sensical.

   For calling you the liar that you've been shown to be on this very   
   thread?  That makes it doubly nauseating that you have the hypocrisy   
   (falsely) to accuse others of being liars.

   Nobody's "dishonestly trolling" you.  You wouldn't know a fair review if   
   it bit you on the nose.  By "fair review" what you really mean is   
   somebody accepting your views.  Other people here are too careful about   
   telling the truth to do that.

   Not at all.  There's been the odd troll here over the years, Mr. Flibble   
   probably being the latest of these, but in the main people have been   
   sincere and truthful.  That appears to be something you can't deal with.
