Barry stopped dialoguing long ago with people who he knew had seen through him. He's terribly intimidated by intelligent people.
<< Poor Barry was wildly, insanely jealous of Robin. Still is. Brings him up at every opportunity even long after he's left. I've never seen Barry so distraught by a single poster. Well, his reaction to Bob is pretty priceless as well. Barry won't go near him with a ten foot barge pole, and not because he is anything but terribly threatened on every level. Barry lacks the wit, the education, the sense of humour, the intellect and the life experience to begin to dialogue with Bob That's why he doesn't try - at least Barry has that much sense. >>
