Digital BW, The Print

I'm not giving up.  I'll just ingnore him.  That's pretty easy to do in an email environment.

Hi Tom,

Sad that it has to come to that. You are by no means the first person to
make that statement. I'm just tired of having lists that are productive and
useful infected by this guy.

The arguments always follow this form:

Rational person: (looking at blue sky) Hmm, the sky appears blue.

Anthony Atkielski: The sky appears pink with purple polka dots.

Rational person: Ugh, no, the sky appears blue.

Anthony Atkielski: No it doesn't.

Rational person: Ugh, yes it does.

Anthony Atkielski: No it doesn't.

Rational person: Ugh, yes it does--do you have proof otherwise?

Anthony Atkielski: -silence- -obfuscation- -denial- -lack of experience-.

Rational person: Proof?

Anthony Atkielski: The sky appears pink with purple polka dots.

Rational person: Ugh, no, the sky appears blue.

Anthony Atkielski: No it doesn't.

Rational person: OK, whatever, this is futile.

Anthony Atkielski: Ah! Through my superior rationality, I have discerned
truth and have won the argument! The sky does in fact now appear pink with
purple polka dots.

Rational person: Oh geez! That isn't true, I just happen to have a life and
really want to get back to B/W digital printing...

Each time someone gives up because they grasp the futility of arguing with
this guy he gets a much-needed boost to his psyche--that is why he is here,
his raison d'etre--he has admitted he doesn't do B/W digital printing.
Lasting in a debate is not the same as being correct.

I've quit other lists because of his trolling--I'm not giving up this one.
