Rather than subject you to the torture of continuing cognitive
dissonance, I
have just posted this from my Comcast account.

I don't see how this merry chase of yours will help persuade the
Krooborg to do what needs to be done.

It had nothing to do with it. I used up my 1 gig allotment, so the account
was frozen until the beginning of the month. I continued to post from the
new account until you justifiably questioned the identity of the poster.

I have tried to persuade Kreeger to moderate his tone. Moderation can smooth
over much of the discord that results from unalterable differences of
opinion. As everyone have noted, Kreeger is not interested moderating his
tone, since the value of cordial relations with individuals who disagree
with him has no apparent value to him.

I have also probed more deeply into the state of Kreeger's knowledge. I have
observed that he knows some things, and has a certain domain of competence.
However, he ascribes to himself a much larger domain of competence than he
in fact possesses.

Were Kreeger to confine his remarks to those areas in which he actually has
some expertise, and were he to temper these remarks with the knowledge that
he could possibly be wrong, he could be a useful cyber citizen. Kreeger
shows no interest in accepting the limitations of his knowledge.
Consequently, the ratio of the quantity of information provided by Kreeger
that is factual, to the quantity of disinformation provided by Kreeger, is
much smaller than it could be.

I conclude that Kreeger has a personality disorder of moderate, but not
severe, proportion.
He is not a Brian L. McCarty, as Kreeger has a strong sense of his own
identity. He is not a Scott Lifshine, in the sense that his imbalance falls
within the extreme edge of personalities that function in the real world.

Ironically, Kreeger most strongly resembles Zipser. If one factors out the
factual content of their posturings, both exhibit(ed) the same tendency to
rant; neither could accept being wrong, or at fault. Kreeger claims to be a
champion of objective methods, but his science is as leaky as a collander.
