I see that even the low standard of courage required to debate on the internet (with a nom de plume, no less) is too much for some people.

I agree - that is very bad form on their part.

I've just given you a positive rep, so at least you'll come out even!

Thanks, Prince.

Since the original topic (which was satirical and has been taken way too seriously!) has long left the premises in "favour" of personal comments - which should be taken to PM - I'm closing this thread. Anyone who has a worthwhile on-topic contribution to make can PM me and I might consider reopening it.

By the way, anyone who posts on the Downs can get negative reps - I have, and only because someone disagreed with me, not because I posted inappropriately. Shrug it off and don't complain publicly, please - it's not worth getting upset over such a small thing.
