		<description>Instead of "deleting this post" I'll point out a few things for your benefit.

I. The man who expects to post on the Internet and ~not~ therefore make a fool of himself is certainly very special, intellectually speaking. In the retarded sense of "special".

II. The "thousands of people" argument carries about as much water as you'd expect. Consider that Trilema is idem followed and appreciated by thousands of people worldwide. Consider that &lt;em&gt;tu ipse&lt;/em&gt; failed to google etc.

III. No deletion ever fixed anything. I'd much rather be me, - which is, someone read and appreciated by thousands of people yet still ready to make a fool of myself and learn something in the process - than, for instance, you - which is, too insignificant to have a name and too petrified of wholly imagined consequences to ever be anything but insignificant. 

See how this works ?

Now, if you have something substantial to add to the conversation, preferably something other than a reflection of your childhood trauma and assorted maleducation, I'm sure the Internet's all ears.</description>

		<description>Ron Maimon has two degrees, from Cornell and Harvard. And Luboš Motl is a former Harvard University professor. Both are followed and appreciated by thousands readers worldwide. Dude, you really should use Google at least a bit before writing about other people.

Quoting Huxley's novel does not automatically turn any written nonsense into something worth reading. If I were you at this point I would do myself a favour and erase this post. Unless you don't mind making a fool of yourself.</description>
