Well, I guess your hand would be a wanker, and
your mouth would be a liar.  That's the organs
with which these acts are *usually* performed.

Naturally, I have told Jerry for mindreading me
here - once again he's doing it wrong.

Perhaps Rod can point him to the threads where
I showed how it *should* be done - he seemed to
be finding it quite spooky at one point - especially
that part where I said "The Wallabies have no chance
tomorrow", and he said "that's spooky, I was just
about to say the same".

Because, as a BIGS he has only the highest possibly
ethical standards, and would never dream of stooping
to such foul-mouthed tactics.

He prefers to accuse people of being "Enemies of the
Faith" instead.

But that the two are not equivalent, because it is possible to attack
either one without attacking the other - I remember.

Now, have we reached bottom in this diversion yet?  Jerry's
accusation of Rod making attacks on the whole of the Baha'i
Faith is over two weeks back now.
