If Jack weren't here I would be reduced to mocking the preening fatuosity of newbies. He is ultimately a much more satisfying target because he has the intellectual horsepower and life experience to be able fight back.
Oh, my. Hypostomus, it appears some esteemed members believe that you and I, along with a few other lost souls, are in need of therapy and counseling. I suppose that medication may also be indicated, due to the passing reference to psychosis. Do you think that Dr. Deco would be willing to look into the matter? No doubt, his schedule is a busy one, so I propose group counseling in order to accommodate the good doctor. And since we, the infirmed, are geographically dispersed, a group counseling thread may be in order. Paging Dr. Deco.
Dr. Deco pronounces himself quite weary of the whole alleged debate, and has in any case clearly come down on one side. He therefore asked me, as a disinterested party, to accede to your request. Kindly see the new thread "Guru Abreaction" in Psych. I strongly caution both "Teams" to comport themselves in a gentlemanly or ladylike fashion to avoid thread deletion. Warmest regards to all.
Thank you, Dr. Kraepelin. And please accept my apologies for having completely overlooked you in this matter. It has momentarily slipped my mind that you have an established reputation in this field.
This just came to me...FWIW (not much!) Does anybody else think Thunderdog is the dearly departed dbphoenix? Their sentence structure and style are quite similar, if I remember correctly..
You flatter me, Wayne. However, I have never had any username other than the one I am presently using.
I have no doubt that you are correct. However, I am puzzled by your use of the word "sound." Do you hear him often, and are you listening to him in the background at this very moment? If so, then you may wish to consult Dr. Emil Kraepelin in his Psychology thread. Best wishes for a speedy recovery.
