    Especially when it comes from hate, not reasoning.

    This is not an ideal place to chat with tech savvy-people. This is a Prius forum that's 10 years past its peak era and most of the regulars are old folks who are retired and have plenty of time to take the initiative on what you call "nonsense" and in this case I consider it an interesting discussion. But yes @bwilson4web and the guy with a Dunce cap in his profile photo have indeed posted lots of nonsense that sometimes makes me mad, but complaining about it has never changed anything. It's not the internet. If it's not making you mad. :)

    I'd rather it be said than have it go unsaid so it doesn't go undiscussed. Having fun on the internet and trolling someone who deserves it can be quite enjoyable. But there's always moderators in one form or another judging / trolling us for how we respond to what other people do. Kinda like a never ending troll fest!

    Reminds me of:

    Do two people who know nothing about a topic know more or less than one person who knows nothing?

    Click and Clack, famously concluded that two "know-nothings" can know less than one, as their combined lack of knowledge can lead to elaborate but incorrect theories.
