Marbux (/ Paul M.)

above you make a lot of accusations about a lot of people, without any 
proof.
I could go for (multiple) slander of name, but as you so nicely pointed 
out that your public reputation is 'on the line' I think you just gave us 
all we need to make clear to the public that you are just being very 
childish and insulting everyone that does not share your world view.

So, I kindly suggest you stop your efforts and accept the majority vote.
