Have you read his web page? Like I did? Get back to me after you come up 
to speed on Xah.

<g> Note that I was not endorsing the content.

The restraint I was talking about was in ignoring you. If you and 
everyone else ignored his articles there would not be this thread. Which 
  is not being dragged out by Xah.

You all dis Xah, yet he is larger than you: you cannot resist heaping 
abuse on him. If you could, his articles would appear and disappear 
without leaving a trace. Instead we get people with half his wit making 
lame attempts at witty put-downs, embarrassing only themselves.

Xah acknowledges his problem, you clowns do not even know you have one.
