Speechless today, Tom?

Old Keeter (AKA UA001) trick. From the antifaq:

If you get a blank response from somebody with a Delta tool handle, it
means that YOU HAVE WON the argument!! Those opposed to you have been
rendered speechless. You may now rest on your laurels, as everyone in
the group has conceded to you and agrees with your inanity, sorry, I
meant your well-reasoned views. No need to post to that thread
anymore.

Yeah, I could tell from the context. :-) Funny though; nothing from Tom in nearly two
months and then two empty posts... Kinda got me curious about his mood. :-)

Another thing that intrigued me about the empty posts is that we use them in another group
to represent a moment of silence when somebody has passed.
