So "world traveler" is a trigger word? Not that I need to validate anything for anyone but for the last decade constant business travel is my life and I say that because it's critical to my experience and not to boast. But I see that any opinion against the pompous homerist narrative and the juvenile ad hominem attacks are unleashed. I won't reciprocate insults because I don't share the same contempt for a complete stranger. Also I can express ideas and read about concepts that aren't favorable to my reasoning without being frustrated into belligerence.

Honestly I wouldn't want a moderator to ban him or censor anything because I'm not vindictive and I think it should remain for posterity. After all I believe that attacks like that say more about the person than the person they were attempting to attack... it's all good.
