> So, I was right, by your own evidence; your droogie Brian brought up duelling, and eugene and I elaborated upon it, Eugene ribbing Gore and I ribbing Bush, at which time Brian, who brought up duelling in the first place, attempted to blame his own actions on me. Kinda like the black helicopter Freemen types blaming the feds for NcVeigh's demolition of the OK city federal building. The modus is the same; first do something, then blame those you did it to, and accuse THEM of doing what YOU did.
So you prove that you are computer illiterate. Any idiot can see that it
is Eugene that brought up the duelling topic. Brian just made a one line
comment about his curiosity.
I'm still waiting for an apology from you, Joe.
