::::"Bragging," when you went off the deep end mocking my "research skills," eh? I see: a person is just supposed gleefully to accept your half-witted crap; if he successfully hammers you back into your ditch six or seven times, then he's "bragging." I have gone over my musing twice and have yet to detect any "bragging"—unless demonstration of crystal-clear, brutally obvious semantic and pragmatic superiority to you and your ilk constitutes "bragging." That's right, antagonize someone with baseless crap and then, when he buries you beneath your own foolishness, tell him that he's bragging. How picayune can you be?

::::(This is quite a mystery! Perhaps you feel I'm "bragging" because I indicated that I was the first to contribute such-and-such content to the Web. It seems to me that many millions of people can make such a claim, provided it's posited within an idoneous context. Is someone who beats you fair and square in a game of skill also bragging?)

::::Oh: "sixteen-year-old college junior" must be what upset you. Gee: I was just setting up a scenario to demonstrate that the behaviors of you and your ilk were beneath me when I was sixteen. I had attendantly to demonstrate that I was engaged in activities in the proper milieu when I was sixteen, now, didn't I? (Of course, nowadays, every schmuck and his brother does such things, particularly if they can, say, recite the alphabet by age eighteen. Doing this in NYC in the 1970s was a bit different. But I guess you'll consider that "bragging," ''pauvre petit''.)

::::Why don't your developers who agree with me take a few minutes and code up the missing feature? Do they have any capabilities other than staunch agreement? Or are they like the standard "network engineers" who stand around looking concerned and muttering various acronyms to demonstrate their "seniority" while the Asian kid with the Coke-bottle glasses does the actual work?
