The George Plimpton who has been posting copious off-topic stuff

(what real person has time for that) has been infuriating folks of
all
political stripes by ignoring the real gist of arguments,
resorting to
insults when all else fails, and responding with occasional
non-sequitors. All of these are characteristics of the bots
created to
try to pass the Turing test and win the Loebner prize. The last
clue to
me though was his mistaking the thread about home scale steel

as a political thread.


Nah, he's real. I can tell. He's one of those super egotistical guys
that thinks that because he has a college degree that he knows more
than
anyone else.

Nope. I never talk about how much I know. Where you're concerned, I
talk
about what you *don't* know - usually because you *can't* know it.


Yeah, what you do is talk as if you know things when you haven't a
clue.

No, I don't. Can't you read, ****wit? What did I just write? I said that
I never talk about what I know - I talk about what you *don't* know
despite pretending you do, and how that leads you to spout a bunch of
bull****.


Your only problem is that you haven't any idea what I don't know.

I don't know what you don't know until you start pretending to know
something that I can tell you don't.

But since I never have pretended to know something that I don't that
would make what you claim impossible. So you are at it again, your lying.



You can add that you don't know what I know either.

I know that you don't know the difference between males and females. You
keep confusing Bob Dole and Elizabeth Dole, you stupid ****.

Here's what you have told everyone, that you don't know that when a
married man is a multimillionaire so is his spouse. In the case of the
Doles, they are both millionaires. That is what I have said all along.
You are the one who thinks that only Elizabeth is a millionaire because
only her name is listed on Roll Call as one of the richest senators. The
rest of us understand that just because her husband's name isn't listed
in the article he's still one rich guy. You know, you have to be really
stupid not to know that?
