I also refuse to spend another instant dicussing this issue with you. Native English speaker or not, it is clear to me that the term "illiterate imbecile" cannot have been misconstrued by anyone other than those whom its originator attempted to beguile..While I am confident that I hold more academic qualifications than AJ will have gained in the remainder of his life, he continues to mutter from his self-proclaimed pulpit . Either put up or shut up. I made a curious attempt to invite discussion as to whether the inclusion of mechanisms such as "NASAL" had a place in an application such as FlightGear which attempts to simulate the behavior of real-world physical systems in an artificial environment. You and you alone responded with an insult. Not the behaviour I would have expected from a person familiar with environments where "illiterate imbeciles" are often dicouraged and certainly never invited. Case closed indeed. I concur.
