If someone disagrees with you, then the person must obviously be a paid shill.

Since you disagree with me, you must be a paid shill.

Oh, and in the interests of continued disclosure, my current job involves (in part) finding holes in other peoples' arguments. I charge $35 an hour. If you want to give me any work, shoot me a PM and we'll set something up.

Sorry, I meant as in MWh Dead_Parrot Apr 2012 #14

OK - that makes sense. Nihil Apr 2012 #15
