@DoomBananas what specifically are you referring to? Because I had this very same "conversation" yesterday with someone else on this very thread and he too thought ad hominems and being indirect was the ticket.
Where was I "lashing out, east and west"? How have I "lost perspective"? And be specific, not in regards to what you just wrote, but anything - really, ANYTHING - in that long ass thread that you can pinpoint and actually argue against.
Remember: argue the points - not the person.
