   I have spent 22 years on this. I have filled in   
   all the gaps. Mere Rhetoric is woefully inappropriate   
   for any honest dialogue on the foundation of the   
   notion of truth itself.   
      
   There are coherent ideas, incoherent ideas and   
   ignorance of which is which. Personality   
   characteristics are never directly relevant.
