You and Tex completely ruined that thread. You dragged in an unrelated ongoing argument and ended up taking the thread completely off topic. What was particularly galling was that you continued your flame war even after Mr. March, the subject of the article, made an appearance on the thread and even went as far as asking you to stop. You pissed him off so bad that now he is banned for using vulgar language.

I was about to respond [belatedly, I admit] to him, and offer encouragement, etc, when he blew up.
I am sorry that you think, -- that I was at fault beyond that. -- I don't see it that way at all. I'm responsible for what I actually do or say. - Not for anyones perceived opinions about my actions.

My Mom told me as a 'real smart' person it might be a good idea for me to avoid excessive debate with a fool because she said a casual observer might not be able to tell the difference.
In this case there was collateral damage. That is a shame.
I understand their "timeout", they needed a chance to eat and sleep, I do not understand one of them being allowed to continually harass and disrupt in a private forum.
One thing I can assure you is that NO-ONE should take their posting privilages for granted here!

It makes a good bumper sticker and a good reply: "Life's too short to stay on topic"
