They are beneath human dispute."



Apparently, Nick Bourbaki endorses this opinion, more or less, while proudly
announcing that its phrasing was "bad grammar." I don't agree. If what he
meant was that they were beneath human dispute, he said it well enough, if not
succintly. They should not be argued with, by those who turn up their arrogant
noses, in other words. By those (like Nick) who project racism onto their
"enemies." By those who choose to regard their unwanted critics as sub-human.


Yet Nick had no answer as to the stated question: why does he waste his time
and "our" bandwidth disputing or feuding with those he supposedly has convinced
himself are sub-human?



My position on this is that it is *his* time he wastes (not very wisely).

And as for bandwidth, I think we shall not yet squeeze out the folks over on
alt.cancer.find.the.cure. If it comes to that, I shall be the first to stop
posting here!
Just in case that were to happen, here is my brilliant draw with Louis Blair
from a Chicago Open, in which we were tied for 1st place (Class D):



HTML invalid script error
no such position
no such game
cannot find moves
invalid header
nobody would want to
see such a game anyhow
