My comment about failure to address substance was a general one, not restricted to this particular thread topic, no.
Obviously, Mr. Hamblin is not a war criminal; so obvious, in fact, that it doesn't really require discussion. So, I went off on a tangent. Something I so rarely do. :)
I'm paid to deal with people's writing skills. If that makes me petty, at least it also keeps me fed.
Trying to address substance on this board is difficult, it rarely exists. Look at the top posts in this forum. Some are exposes on someone based on a few quotes, insults thrown at another message board, an anecdote about being from Utah, porn, a review of a TV show that some seem to think shows the truth about the past, and studies on how to eat a Reese's (hint: use mouth).
If I lived off of intellectual substance and were exiled here, I would starve to death in short order. It does happen but I also got sleet in Ventura county once. I don't expect to see it often.
I mostly go off on tangents. A difference in posting style.
