[remaining drivel snipped] By now, everyone who reads your posts must realize that it bothers you to no end that your beloved Harrier shot down just two missile-armed jets during the Falklands War...that their opponents had no reserve fuel to dogfight even if they had carried missiles...that British attempts to neutralize the airstrip at Port Stanley were, and still are, worthy of criticism from their opponents and everyone else. Your attempt to dismiss the substantial overclaiming of Argentine aircraft by the British was also yawn-inducing, but not surprising. Apparently all of this is a bitter pill for you to swallow, because you make continous efforts to distract our attention from it with longwinded posts of "technical minutiae", interspersed with petty attempts to dicredit Ruben Moro, whilst propping up your hero -- the self-righteous windbag Sharkey Ward -- who is arguably less honest than Moro. Basically, you are an expert at talking a lot but saying nothing. Evidently, you have a tremendous surplus of free time not available to the rest of us. Oh, dear, Evan. I seem to have hit a nerve.

: Don't stop now - I'm waiting for Evan to conclude that the Argentines really did sink Invincible. He provides hours of hysterical entertainment at minimal cost. You aren't kidding! I've actually taken him out of my killfile just so I can get both sides as Mr Alcala takes him apart bit by bit by bit with the technical minutae Brennan appears to think so important right up to the point where it destroys his argument (basically every time). I actually had to check my history books at one point after reading a Brennan post just to check that Britain did actually win that war! Still, this thread appears to be dying now, so I suppose it'll be back into the killfile with him shortly. . . -- Regards Drewe "Better the pride that resides In a citizen of the world Than the pride that divides When a colourful rag is unfurled" |

I suspect a bitter experience at the hands of a lover dumping him for a Brit at some point in his early life. Much as I've enjoyed giving Evan the public spanking he apparently thrives on, I think I'll give it a rest. My hand is getting tired, and besides, there's so little challenge involved. It's rather too much like shotgunning rabbits while they're staked out spread-eagle on the ground - it's just too easy for anyone not an entrant in the "Upper Class Twit of the Year" competition. But I'm sure that, in another thread or another forum, others will be willing to take up the gauntlet, and oblige Evan with the public humiliation he craves. Judging by his last post here he's reached levels of evasion, mendacity and belief that (all evidence to the contrary notwithstanding) the truth is whatever he says it is. This leads me to suspect that he has a new role model. If so, I must congratulate him for his success in emulating John Tarver, a (fortunately) rare achievement. Guy |
