it goes a bit further than that. Good ole Mike called me up one Labor Day morning to argue about a post I made following up one of his. He got angry and hung up before I could demonstrate I was not mistaken. He posted a condescending post and out and out called me wrong.
Several other folks jumped in with math and other examples and it was shown conclusively that Mike was indeed mistaken. In public. There was a little bit of name calling going on. Things like: I can't believe you're such an ignorant fool. and a bit worse. Most of it got deleted.
The RAT wars were before my time. I am sure of one thing: it takes *TWO* lunatics to produce that sort of destruction. One of them is still around and goes by the name Mike LaFevre.
It happened again over a different yet very similar topic and there were more people jumping in and learning like mad whilst they constructed their arguements to show Mike. It was not a pretty thing. Mike painted himself into a corner and then expected us to walk through the paint, carry him out and then go back and fix the painted surface. There is more of course, but it is speculative and I'm not putting it down in public.
cheers,
Douglas
