Amazing how bent out of shape Mike Kent and Roy *still* are because people
speaking honestly and with honor offends them.

Can either of you point to any comment I made that was not honest and
honorable?  Not your claims of what I said, but what I actually said.  Bet
the most you can do is point to my reacting to trolling with - likely - more
kindness than was showed to me.

Should be interesting to see if you can find anything.
