By not being willing to simply ignore what you don't like, you miss

response to him. Therefore, you miss not only the knowledgeable stuff
that is posted under his nome de plume but the discussions he has
with the likes of Dudley H. and others you respect. Don't tell me
that there is no worthwhile content there. These people are
conversing with him. Besides you killfiled him, so you don't see it.
I'm not Jay H, but I'll reply to this:
Yes, I killfiled Bertie. (And all of his recent morphs to evade
killfiles; that's a really annoying trick that's against many
providers' TOS.)
Not mine.
It was a balancing choice. Yes, I'm going to miss his
good posts. I'm also going to miss the aggravation of dealing with his
(many more, IMAO) posts where he quotes 150 lines of argument to add
one line of insult. The tradeoff is, for me, positive. I don't have
enough time to put up with that crap.
Not a problem for me.
Bertie
