A Recapitulation

1. In response to an OT post concerning Steve Irwin's untimelydemise, I was critical of the sentiments being expressed pointing outthe man made his fortune tormenting animals for the amusement of the'ignorant'.The response was a stream of abuse, at least I think it was abuse.From that I conclude many think tormenting animals is OK!.2. I raised the topic of the many, in fact a significantpercentage of OT posts in this newsgroup. I remarked that this is adiscourtesy to others. This was also greeted by howls of abuse andprotestations that you, at least those that responded, do not abide bythe general rules that most do for the sake of order in our society.I claim nothing original in either subjects. What I find interestingwas the response. There seems a number of very angry women (I won'tdebase the word 'ladies' by applying it to you) out there, mostlyconcentrated in the US, I think.Now what new abuse can you think up to continue to demonstrate yourignorance that by now must be apparent to most.

Getting him fixed wouldn't matter. Trolls are impotent. They have no power of any kind. That's what makes them trolls. That's why troll behavior is the way it is -- a feeble and futile attempt to gain power they can never have.

I think we need to get him done: it might be hard to re-home a litter of troll-lets. Might also help him not to stink the place up in the breeding season. Anyone know what the breeding season for trolls is?

Out there somewhere is a multiverse poem based on the same song I twisted.
