    1. The reason for the aggression, much like that among drivers of large trucks/SUV's is likely related to "compensation". In the name of decency, I will elaborate no further. If you are confused, send me a pm, and I will happily explain.

    2. Why hassle the man for taking the time to proofread his own writing? Sure, no one wants to come off as a pompous-a$$, but that still beats sounding like a f@#*ing idiot (one who would criticize another for having education).

    Toodles. :)

    I agree with live aloha....he is both intelligent and witty, great combination. J Shawn, ease up on your "docility" and let people know that while you respect them, you wont' be disrespected and things should work out. If that fails, make the drive across the state to the east coast and find your own peak.

    stick to your guns, oh articulate one....

    a person with a skill in sports is not expected to act like a novice so the rest of us don't feel bad; why would you ask someone who has honed his skill in speaking properly dumb it down so someone doesn't feel inferior? wow. pay attention. you might learn something.

    big words do not necessarily = smart person.

    I know how to create power, I understand how and why things work, I could write you this in hexadecimal. I could build a robot and program it to give you a wedgie. I don't write like an oxford geek and I spell like a foreigner. Intelligence is all relative.

    My grammar and spelling got worse the moment my phone/tablet became my primary tool for surfing the net instead of my comp w/ a regular keyboard

    physics and programming does not necessarily = smart person.

    I bet you could also program a robot to sodomize your pompous anus. I enjoyed reading his post, wish I could write like that.

    btw, I'm a math/physics person too.

    However i fully agree with your last sentence.

    hey hey hey, keep it classy now. And forget it, you are not getting the XYZ location of my pampas bum hole.

    Oh yeah, I think I am obligated to say this: eat a 8===>!!!!!!!!!!!

    I'm just saying that we all have our strengths and weaknesses. I bet any of us could put together a strange string of big fancy $9 words if we wanted to.

    Not to sound pompous, but aren't the 'pampas' the grasslands of argentina?

    I was there that 4/5 at Juno, didn't see the Hooking, but the crowd was pretty uptight.

    The inlet bar and a lot of bars down the beach from Jupiter to Juno are simply GONE. Everybody HAD to surf the pier.

    It was jammed and tense. With all sorts of craft riding from every angle.

    Intelligence is not "all relative" only a moron would believe that

    Then, by your own standard, you are a retard for your lack of punctuation.

    I thought that "all relative" was a dating site in West Virginia. There, now I've steered the boat towards a completely different set of rocks.

    I would go to my shaper for questions about surfboard design. However, I would go to my professor for questions on applications of fiber optics.

    Both I consider intelligent.

    HAHAHAHA. Thank you, just made my morning. As I sit here shedding red ink on my students' physics quizzes. I guess they possess this "all-relative" intelligence as well. My intelligence just happens to agree with how the world actually operates. Hmmm, interesting.
