What is it about the internet that makes people think that pointlessly abusing each other is a valuable use of their time? Guys, life's too short. Get out and do something that's actually fun. The internet really does seem to bring out the worst in people.

It gives those who want to shout and scream the perfect opportunity to do so with little in the way of retribution.

Most of those white-knucklers sit there grinding their teeth and foaming at the mouth, then spurt it all out in one go, no punctuation, like a single-sentence rant.

Mustard, I don't think this is a case of two people abusing each other, as you'll see from re-reading the exchange. I think I might qualify for a TMA medal for restraint.

Toxic, I can only reiterate I don't recall ever speaking to you and find it hard to believe I ever said anything in the Lion that could lead you to say what you have. As for Avebury and the children, it was I who proposed at a very early stage that if any civilians were allowed in the tunnel it should be the Avebury youngsters.

I oppose the TC for reasons I've laid out and am entitled, I suppose.
