   Why are you so insecure? To take this as a personal attack shows certain   
   sensitivities.   
      
   As to being insulted, lol, of what? Are you stating in effect that you   
   have no delusions of grandeur, but are the real thing?   
      
   Does your education match your level of knowledge?   
      
   Have you ever actually sat down and thought about whether or not they   
   were indeed correct? Or do you just automatically assume you are the   
   correct one?   
      
   Lastly, how can one be objective based on one one-sided post?
