Mr. Royce,
Please do not call other list members names or otherwise make nasty personal remarks.
"Mr. Tim Starling is either a liar or an easily-fooled person."
Which is worse, calling someone a liar or libel?
As you should know, libel is a false publication, as in writing, print, signs, or pictures, that damages a person's reputation.
If someone tells lies about you, what are you going to call him?
(And anyone who reads my Usenet messages can see that I am by no means a vicious person.)

Yes, he has fallen into the same sewer as those who called him a crackpot. ;-)
