Nutz, I'm going to one up you! In the 80's, I worked for a telecomunications company that had, for all intents and purposes, and Intranet and internal bulletin board, bascially V1.0 of the Usenet.
I called some guy out for making preposterous claims.
He tried to stand behind them, and I proved him wrong, essentially making a fool of him.
He got so mad he swore at me up and down, and told me to meet him in the parking lot after work for a beat down.
He was met all right. By security, with the contents of his desk in a cardboard box! He got himself fired!!!

Yep, that was TTodd alright. He ended up working at a factory on a swing shift. He had been up for like 45 hours in a row when he went postal that day at JSO.
But imagine that there is only one fish in the ocean. And its Leviathan. And it likes eating land. And continues to eat until there's no land left. And then this place is turned into a big, blue ball, as shiny as HH's ass.
Whew...My mind just went on a really wierd tangent. Too much caffeine this morning. You'd think I was buzzing.

Well, Scott Lite isn't really an option. Good luck!
Ahh, come on, don't be that way. You can't allow yourself to be defined by one other person!
So it didn't work out this time - there'll be more Woody's to come along that you can mix it up with. There's more than one fish in the ocean.
You still think my problem is with Woody. Get a clue. My problem is with you trying to play God.
It's my opinion that your behavior is not good for the long term viability of this forum. The road to hell was paved with good intentions. Giving the discretionary power to ban users and issue restraining orders to just one guy - the great and powerful Harlan can only lead to watered down arguments and tepid limp discussions.
Scott usually is pretty reasoned, and Harlan would be the last person I'd think would threaten to ban somebody.

I miss the struggle between Woodbuck and Scott Cambell, they had that going on all but 4 or 5 threads. It was great!
No, it wasn't great. It was ugly, caused serious bad feelings, and it is NOT going to continue here even if I have to be as asshole about it.
Today, Scott and Woody exchanged indirect insults. Then the Woodman opened-fired with trash talk. Woody, you've complained about Scott menacing you, but you get the unnecessary roughness flag today. Scott controlled himself and didn't respond to you. I'm serious, you two must avoid each other, the bad vibes aren't coming here.
