Incidentally, that was my only issue with Brass. Can't just make his point without having to be a snide little you-know-what. Ricter was always good at dissenting opinion without resorting to pissy little behavior. As a result, we had some good debates, he and I. By the way, where is Ricter?
Ricter is probably just busy. But you've gotta admit, there is a certain futility to this forum. For me its just become a reminder of the type of people that are taking over the earth and a reinforcement of my decision to escape as best as can be managed. It is possible that Ricter feels the same way albeit in the other direction. I like him and hope he returns.
