Well, lissener, as usual you’re making an ass out of yourself by throwing a tantrum that anyone would dare try and open a debate with you on a message board dedicated to open debate. In the linked thread, you asked:

Seriously: Rik, Miller, et al.: are you saying that we have to form a secret club, and get a hidden web address, before those of us who want to can have this conversation in peace?

No, I just don’t see the point of starting a debate on a public message board if you don’t want to hear differing points of view. Maybe I’m crazy, but I thought the entire point of offering a critical analysis of a work of art was to test its soundness by inviting people to try to knock holes in it. It seems you just wanted people to post if they were going to give you a big, sloppy blow-job. Maybe you should have made that clearer in your OP, since I was operating under the assumption that you had some sort of intellectual curiosity or inquisitiveness. Clearly, I was wrong. I will keep this in mind when I see threads from you in the future, and avoid them accordingly.
