First of all, I call you names because you deserve them. That says nothing
about my psychology.

And, you'll have to explain that bit. You publicly insulted me, claiming
that I wrote 'gobbledegoop'; and when I told you in detail why your insult
was ill-applied, you said nothing.

Why should I let that pass, just because it is 'past'?

So, I thought that my reply to your claim that my Clarinet Companion article
was 'gobbledegoop' had settled the issue. Clearly not.

You still think that what you said is in some way justifiable -- ie, it's
still 'gobbledegoop'.

That's why you are still an idiot.

All you are claiming here is that your head isn't 'completely' up your arse.

But I'll defer my judgement.
