Although I don't think it is the case, if what Mr. Santana Gómez Garrido said in his above post--which I presume he intended as a sort of coup de grâce for the thread--is true, and the original poster is a troll, then the real problem is that there are a bunch of us respondents hanging around who are too stupid to know better. So you really wouldn't want us participating in the 'more reasonable' discussions, would you? The problem takes care of itself. If you still aren't convinced that we are a lost cause, by all means recommend such a topic. -J
