    Now it is your turn. What am I doing that constitutes trolling, especially light of the subject topic you chose to post about?

    History is the joke the living play on the dead.

        Fat arse, skinny ankles, and a massive beard. Is that the look in every country, because in the UK it is!

        Why can't the little buggers just have nice, sensible, bright green or red mohawks and wear safety pins like we did in the good old days? The main difference is that our fashion crimes didn't come with a life sentence - unlike those goddawful t(w)attoos and piercings that they all seem to have these days. I am very grateful that such things didn't exist when we dinosaurs ruled the Earth.

            Yeah, those massive bits of wood stuck in their ears, WTF! While I was, and still am, into Punk, the whole Mohican, safety pin thing was a joke, a fashion invention by Westwood that only the Pistols were forced to wear. Real Punks just wore normal clobber. :)

                  If you explain how and show that I have personally attacked you then I will apologize and not make that mistake again. Now then, the context of our current email exchange is as follows. Over the past 8-10 months, you have made quite a few contentious, yet largely unsubstantiated, claims on various topics. When I have challenged you, you cannot support your claims. For example, you have the dubious reputation of being the only CP member to regularly post about global warming to the point where I very recently explained (and cited examples of what you do to illustrate my point) that that your behavior in this matter constitutes trolling and grinding an axe. Subsequently, but not coincidentally, you have begun to claim that I am trolling. Then, to up the ante, you also claim I have done nothing but attack members of this group. As I have regularly said to you, if you are going to claim something then be prepared to support that claim. Here is an excellent opportunity for you. You claim that trolling is "a person who starts a quarrel". You also wrote I have done nothing but attack members of this group. Please review any of my email exchanges and show where I routinely engage in such behavior. Bare in mind your own 'colorful' behavior and history at CP so as to avoid being the 'pot that calls the kettle black'. Finally, you started this thread with the following statement:

                  There is no other way to interpret this other than you are making a sweeping generalization which necessarily cannot be true, which reflects nothing more than a mean spirited opinion, and which, in my opinion, violates the spirit of the SB. As I suggested earlier in this thread, perhaps you should be less critical of others and take care of you own house first.

                                Correct me if I am wrong, but according to you, does that not constitute as an attack on a CP member - something you have recently been prone to complaining about?
