If Eli is mistaken, he is unable to admit that he is and even if he isn't mistaken, often half of the content of his replies contain implied self-adulation by some kind of manipulative disregard of other personalities. I'm very, very seldom disturbed by any kind of criticism, I only try to make Eli aware that several subscribers are making jokes about him, if he again makes a fool out of himself. Sure, I'm speaking for myself, this doesn't mean that I'm not aware of other subscribers' opinions. Sometimes people are writing emails off-list. >Besides, for anyone knowledgeable it would always be easier to ignore >other less knowledgeable people... But you see where this would end up. Not really and I wasn't talking about knowledge, I was talking about wisdom and psychologically balance. Consider to reread Eli's brilliant achievement of wisdom and online psychotherapy: >> I have run Arch on it since 2009 -- I'm familiar with what it >> does. > >Just using a thing often used by intelligent, computer-savvy people, >does not *automatically* qualify you as one of them.
