from Tile Man, commenting on Troll:
Tile Man, I think that on most of the actual issues in this debate I agree with you and I strongly disagree with Troll. However, he has strong, honestly held opinions (no matter how misguided I think they are), and I don't think it helps to make personal comments of this sort.
Apart from being a bad idea in itself, it doesn't help you win the argument. You can't persuade people to come round to your own point of view if you start by making them hostile.
