I think you've completely missed the point, espace. Read his post again. This

fran! u seem a bit bothered in your last couple of posts...maybe a
vacation in the arctic would help u chill out a bit. i personally
havent read a book of significance in about 40 years because i also
found what i was looking for...this does not mean that one should not
put their views out there does it? maybe tink does what to spread his
light around...anything wrong with that? u can take what u want from
it, or not, no? speaking of conceited, at least he doesnt call himself
'tinktheman' ;-^)
