Note that none of Barry's attacks on those he doesn't like are to be seen as ego-based. Only challenges to *his* views are ego-based. Once we all recognize this Ultimate Truth and settle down, things will go so much more smoothly on FFL. We can comfortably stop thinking and simply accept whatever Barry says about the folks he doesn't like as valid and legitimate, whether it's true or not, because he has no ego involvement in any of it. Only those who don't share his views have any problems with ego.
