"Listen , Spannie, I've been charitable, I've even used small words to explain complicated concepts "

I trust you are well read but have you ever really CREATED anything - perhaps in the arts, commerce, industry?

Are you published - best seller?

Perhaps a patent or two?

Any multimillion dollar, brownfield new process startups?

Have you ever managed any type of significant venture involving 100 or 1000 with bottom line accountability?

Do you really know how the material world works?

Right, I didn't think so.

"I trust you are well read but have you ever really CREATED anything - perhaps in the arts, commerce, industry?"

As a matter of fact, yes. I enjoyed a 20 year career on Wall Street (at Smith-Barney), as a system's programmer, where I helped design, build and program many of the automated trading systems that are an industry standard (by the way, I do not hold a dgegree in either computer science or programming. This stuff is NOT rocket science). I left the firm three years ago to start my own Automation consulting business. I work only on those projects that interest me, and I spend the vast majority of my time at home, with the lovely Mrs. Wombat, here at stately Wombat Manor, and completing my studies via correspondance (internet) at Stanford.

"Are you published - best seller?"

No, I am not. If you wish to imply my opinions are not valid because I haven't been, then that makes even less sense than everything else you've posted here.

"Do you really know how the material world works?"

Whole lot better than you, my friend. Whole lot better than you. Now, are you done embarrasing yourself?
