Yeah. Nice that other Dell customers ultimately have to pay for your constant belligerence towards motorists both on and off the roads. Knowing all that I do about you, I'm pretty certain that you were in some way more difficult towards the driver in question than you needed to be. You just have to keep reminding people that you think they should be feeling guilty for getting behind the wheel, despite you knowing nothing about their individual circumstances, and despite them having every right to do what they're doing. They don't care what you think, but you have to force your opinions on them anyway. You have to be as obstructive, uncooperative and rude as possible towards *all* drivers, and of course you never, ever thank them no matter how nice they are to you. They "shouldn't be driving" so you're going to be a bastard towards them, end of.

And like with the shit-wallowing that you keep doing on usenet, you'll keep trying to make life difficult for drivers again and again, no matter how close you come to a serious collision. You won't stop because that would be a sign of weakness and you'd have "conceded". Much better to show that no-one pushes you about by carrying on picking fights, and if you and others suffer because of that then it's a price worth paying. You may get covered in shit, and you may receive injuries in road traffic collisions, but at least you're refusing to give a millimetre no matter what, something that you clearly pride yourself on a great deal. As Ian Smith says, you *never* admit defeat no matter how beaten you are.

Talking of which: Did you post as Lou Knee? DID YOU POST AS LOU KNEE?
