I only had the patience to go back and multi-quote the first 8 pages.
If people like this would simply acknowledge all the counter examples they've been given, it would have been a much shorter, and equally usefully discussion. But instead they keep restating their opinions as fact, as if all experiences counter to theirs are irrelevant aberrations not worth even the courtesy of acknowledgement. (See post immediately above, as if on cue.)
