Aside from the obvious observation that your words fit your own
behaviour better, I'm not sure which of these can be worse for you,
Krusty:

1. That what you say about Keith is false, meaning more proof
of you being a liar.

2. That it's true (the fact no one objects to him can only be
understood
as everyone agreeing you are so sick in comparison that
anything
he says or does can be overlooked).

Nice no-win trap you've worked your way into, mister master usenet
flame warrior. And this only took you how many years? We can only
wait with anticipation to see what other amazingly fruitful things you
decided to spend your last remaining years accomplishing.

Keith is still a young boy, he's only 42 years old, and he can still
do something better with the half of his life that is left to him than
sit at his keyboard and compare his fortune (or lack of it) to others
who have more toys.

Keith has a desperate need to pull everybody down to his level, and
his type is not uncommon on Usenet.

When addressing me, type "krusty". There's a troll in England who
calls himself
"Krusty" and he's getting annoyed by TOG's constantly reminding
everybody that I once used "krusty kritter" as a nickname for fun.

It should be obvious to anybody who has glanced at Keith's messages
for the last ten years that he has a problem with comparing himself to
more fortunate persons and that he emerges as a loser no matter what
he says.

That's a game that certain members of this cyber community have been
playing, with me as their intended foil.

They try to silence me with insults, but I have developed equanimity
and it doesn't bother me at all, I keep right on, keeping on the path
I've chosen.

Rejection of my wisdom accumulates bad karma for my self-styled
tormenters though.

Speculating about the ineluctable modalities of existence offers many
illuminating insights, and it's what Sanyassins like myself have done
in their old age for thousands of years.

Many of my ancestors sat around in Masonic temples, thinking about the
things that I think about, but never arrived with 10% of the wisdom
I've acquired, even though they were 32nd degree Masons.

Now, thanks to the Interweb, all the wisdom of the Ancient Sages is
right at my fingertips, so please excuse my absence while I go and
tiptoe through the sutras with Google as a guide...

This is priceless now he's trying the condecending self righteous
sanctimounious pedarast route.

Oh poor krusty, don't you realize you are a failure as a MAN and a
human being?
