I remember reading something like the following:
"Consistency alone is not necessarily a virtue.
One can be consistently obnoxious."
I believe it was in a discussion to an RSS read paper,
maybe from about 30 years ago, but I have not been able
to find it again. A web-search for "consistently obnoxious"
taught me more about asbestos corks than I care to know,
but was otherwise unhelpful.
Can anyone provide the source, or at least a lead?
Many thanks, Ewart Shaw.
