One wonders if over45 et al have read some of the calmer investigations into whether or not MA has any legitimacy from earlier in the thread. Long time, dispassionate readers of MA can't help but notice times when he comes across as disingenuous. The tendency is to make excuses for his disingenuousness because he comes across as altruistic. I think that this thread has compiled enough evidence to give pause to the most ardent MA apologists; if they read the evidence.
Having said that, I have been reading him for ten years and will continue to do so. While his narcissism approaches the the pathetic, he is entertaining if nothing else.
AC, you are beginning to come across as petulant and even a bit unhinged at times.
