Can't this thread be locked or something?
Merlin responds the way he does because (choose any or all of):
- he doesn't care whether you like him
- he doesn't care whether you are offended by the way he says things
- he likes to repeatedly defend the way he acts
- he likes to see others defend the way he acts
- he thinks it's more efficient to defend the way he responds some of the time, than to watch how he responds all the time
He, and most of the community, feel he has earned the right to make these choices.
End of story.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
