The subject line should have been prefixed with "OT: ". And it's rich that you (implicitly) refer to your opponents as "trolls" while starting a thread like this!

I don't see much trolling behaviour on this group from anyone: most of the activity is civilised debate (which I know some people desperately want to extinguish when it's about certain subjects, but thankfully there are much fewer of them here than there used to be).

Overusing the word "troll" and using it to refer to anyone you dislike or disagree with is one of *the* psycholist traits and is very unhelpful all round. Please stop, and allow "troll" to take on its original, and correct, definition once again, rather than using it as a silly generic insult.
