"Is this trip REALLY necessary?" wrote in message

I don't know why some people are so intent on arguing with this Mike
Vandeman. He's just a pathetic old fool with a very bitter and sad view of
life and all that it is and can be. His ridiculous crusade is impotent,
without any meaning, and of absolutely no worth beyond his own selfish
self-serving interests. If nothing else, he has proven without any doubt
the he is beyond any kind of reasoning with, beyond seeing past his own
ignorance and prejudice, and certainly is incapable of seeing anything
beyond his own twisted delusions of reality. This much should be obvious
to
anyone from the classic newbie that reads one of his posts and subsequent
replies for the first time right down to those that have seen it
throughout
the years. Does anyone seriously think they're ever going to change his
mind about anything?

I don't think anyone would ever think they are going to change his mind,
replying to him is just entertainment and something to do when not much else
is going on. No sensible person would ever take him seriously enough to
argue with him in an effort to change anything.
