Sparky, I doubt that there will be repercussions for your philosophy or argumentative style. For want of a better analogy, much like a malfunctioning engine light on Highflyer's instrument panel, you keep most of us performing at a somewhat higher level. With politics, religion and sexuality banned, threads like this one add color to the forum as well as humor to the life of the fully engaged Sunil. Can you imagine a milquetoast forum revolving around Esshup's endless explanations?
I certainly agree that Bob is a great guy although not very busy. To remedy that, I suggest the we all pack up our campers with kids, friends, inlaws and pets to all spend the summer at his place to bask in his and the Princess's warmth and hospitality.
At the risk of being grouped with the greats of poetry while hoping that it discourages you from taking yourself too seriously, I will share one of my better efforts with you:
A busy mechanic named Sparky,
Wrote posts that are full of malarkey.
While his diction is good,
He is best understood,
By those who are fluent in Snarky.
Hope this helps you out of that purple funk.
