Nonsense.  The Illinois dweeb said he was *really irritated* by "outrageous
and unsubstantiated claims".  Asking that the *least* that could be done is
that a thread of evidence be provided, with the remark "if such exists", is
practically a direct insult to William Thurston's intelligence.

Such is balderdash.  I only flame the bigoted, the rude, and the liars.  If
you don't like it, unsubscribe.

I am directing followups to talk.politics.misc, the only group where flaming
is not out of the way.
