"JP" graced the world with this
thought:

You fed the troll.
He didn't respond to your post, just called you names and
then pasted in his boilerplate rant, full of inaccuracies, quotes
taken out of context, anecdotal opinion and pseudoscience.
He has no interest in wilderness, just his neighborhood park,
a park system in the San Francisco area that was reclaimed from
the worst types of ecological ravages and is itself a prime example if the
resiliance of "nature" and a refutation of his prime argument.
His dispute with bikes is of a personal nature disguised as ecological
concern.
From his inane hypothesis to his spurious degree he is a fraud.
If you feed him he grows, gobbling bandwidth with his longwinded nonsense.
If you don't he'll just fade away.


I think you're pretty much wrong on all counts, ignoring him hasn't
worked for the past ten years, so I"m relatively certain you can plan
on it not going anywhere until he's incapable of using a computer any
longer. Of course, you must've just gotten here, or you'd know his
credentials are, surprisingly, authentic.
Of course, credential aren't a guarantee against just being a nutcase.

He is unaware of what other people think, only interpreting it in
terms of his own worldview, which he defines as the truth.

He does apparently have a real PhD, in psychology, with an undergrad
degree in mathematics. He believes that this makes him expert on all
topics, and more infallible than the Pope.

He has no control over his actions. He will compulsively post, and
respond to replies, but never with a new thought.

When he replies, he has no choice but to add back in all of his usual
cross-posted groups. I have been experimenting, and he has not missed
one time.

He will keep this up as long as he can, because it is out of his
control. And, he will never accomplish anything.

Happy trails,

Especially things like Ph.D.'s ...

I bet Berkeley would revoke his if they could. :-)

(Like I bet they'd like to revoke the Unabomber's degree, etc.).

Funny how advance degrees don't have time limits ...
so they have to take an exam every few years to prove
their brians haven't rotted.

I always thought that a PhD was in one specific field, if not a
subspecialty within that field, and most specifically in the area
which their PhD dissertation covers.

Apparently Mikie got a special PhD in all knowledge in all fields, as
well as a dogma of infallibility more sweeping than the Pope's.

I like to see the Pope at the end of a rope think he's a
fool.

Craze, once in a while you might pause a moment before hitting "Send".

Ah, well, at least that explains Crazy's crazy Pope post a few posts up from
this.

Webtv doesn't have a "send", it has a "what the hell, might as well".
