Mark: I'm getting a lot email complaints about this, it's clogging up my inbox... Cory: What are you trying to say? Cory: Do you know how many hits I produce for you and "your" website? Cory: Just in case you didn't know, I am Canadian, and I live in the UK, and I am a world renowned Author, published [some number] of books, translated into 40 different languages. I am also a hacker. Cory: I get top fees speaking at SciFi and other conventions. Cory: What have you done lately Mark? And why do keep that guy that always posts stuff about nobody cares about or that chick/dude that always writes about transgender issues? Cory: Explain that to me Mark. Cory: That's right...the silence is deafening. You cannot survive without me, my writing, my speaking engagements, my hacktivism, my DRM theses, and my love for Disney. You need me Mark.

As is the gratuitous use of the word "hacking!" As is the self-righteous "Moderator" with grandiose, super-duper-sophistimicated Greek sounding names, with a political agenda to grind and edit out conflicting views under the guise of "x did not contribute to the discussion [properly]."
