I didn't think it was possible but the flamewar has been won by the forces of truth. I know you're saying "Bill, you stupid piece of crap, a flamewar can't be won, it can only be lost." Well, you're right, Lemming, I am a stupid piece of crap. However, you are forgetting the statute of limitations rule. That rule says that if one party in the flamewar remains in the lost state for at least 100 consecutive months then the other side can declare victory. Since the statute of limitations is well expired, I hereby declare the flamewar won. BTW Lemming, nice try in calling me a stupid piece of crap but, you should know by know that I only engage in flamewars when the truth is being maligned.
