 I couldn't agree with you more Tim.  Virtually every post I've seen from
 Scottie has a sneering tone which is unpleasant.  Maybe he thinks he is
 being funny but I for one ain't laughing.  His posts come across as a
 form of intellectual bullying.  And I detect a distinctly nervous tone
 in the posts of those people who reply to his mail along the lines of
 'oh your such a funny crabby guy'.  It reminded me a bit of how certain
 people would try to pacify the bully in the playground. >>

I understand where you're coming from, and I've had my share of run ins with 
Scottie, but trust me, he's a true gentleman.  His "sneering tone" is 
usually, so far as I can tell, directed toward ideas and not people.  

Nothing wrong with that in my opinion...
