Why, yes; that's exactly how we feel when reading your posts. Give yourself +1 to empathy.

Jack Kemp was a good man.  I'm debating punishing you for sullying his name, especially now.
I do not hate you, nor do I love you, but you are made out of atoms which I can use for something else.

If he indeed had passed away (I hadn't heard that) then this shows absolutely no class Martinus.

Really, Neil? About the only net positive from his career was the creation of UEZs, and none had been set up by the time he left HUD.

Kemp's career went downhill after he was traded to Congress...

He's done this before.  It's not exactly surprising.
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Only because we generally frown on celebrating deaths...unless you think all life is sacred...:x

Celebrating someone's death would be the "no class" part of it, correct.  :mellow:

By "we" I meant Languish. I don't think standards of class stem from Languish.
