You're insecurity on your ' intelligence ' screams through every post and Einstein also said
"Imagination is more important than knowledge." keep that in mind.
Get this, ND. If you breath down my neck long enough, I'm going to hit you. Likewise, if people continue to disrespect me on this board when I am being polite and showing decorum, I am bound to change my temperament as I have on here too.
TrueGrit - as I said, I got attacked first. Secondly, there is substance and science in my posts and not solely insults. Those insulting me cannot normally say the same. Most of their postings are devoid of anything BUT insults.
Also, yes, it was unintelligent of me to not figure out getbig sooner, although I would prefer to call it naivety, which I suppose is a construct of intelligence. Subscribing to the egalitarian fraud that is fed to all of us is why I thought this. I would always naturally assume everyone was as intelligent and diplomatic as me, when I should not have insulted my own intelligence by even assuming they could look me in the eye intellectually to begin with.
Then one day, *light bulb over the head moment*, I discovered that maybe people aren't as smart as me and it is their own piss poor biology which results in conflicts between us. Maybe this also explains why I get along so much better with intelligent people and maybe heredity explains certain aggregate actions of ethnic groups too. DOH!
I want people to look at my past mistakes as the tale of Icarus in Greek mythology - the cautionary tale of the man who flew too close to the sun. Awareness is something which can only help you in life, never hurt you.
Lastly, I don't see how you can't differentiate my intelligence from an average board board member when the average board member cannot distinguish between "your" and "you're" and can't string together a sentence in English coherently. The fact you even wrote a reply to me about the topic at hand and did so with a good grasp of vocabulary and spelling is enough proof for me that you are smarter than the average member here.
