That being said....I think Steve was absolutely right to penalize him for comments like those I quoted. He and PA have a history of disagreeing....which is fine, but BB does not seem to see the difference between PA's criticism of his list, and his decision to resort to childish name-calling. That is unfortunate.

I agree with what Steve is doing here. Hes also helping us to expand our vocabulary and writing skills. Its ok for someone to berate what someone does, so long as you don't call them names.
We are know challenged to raise our argumentative and debating skills to reply without calling them a moron or an idiot. You have to express the same thing without using those words.
