Default Chumps of ASA

Upon finding 322 unread posts, I read this one. Most likely it captures the
gist of the now 321 unread posts. Well written BC; I can now hit the "catch
up" button with confidence.

Someone was left out:

Capt RB: Newsgroup bully who hides behinds his wife's nurse uniform
because he can't debate or discuss medical instrumentation with his own
knowledge or expertise. In reality a true mommy's boy only getting married
after his first mommy takes the eternal dirt nap. He considers merit to be
found in the essence of the things he owns (interestingly, a fundamental
error in form also attributed to Aristotle) rather than his own
accumulated skills and experience, which may be considerably lacking.
Sales brochures, magazine reviews and other people's opinion form the
basis of his knowledge set or rather, his conclusions based upon no
knowledge at all. Finds pleasure in insulting others through the safety of
a keyboard and repeatedly fails to deliver on his promises in person.
Constantly calls upon Crantz to play both sides to pull his sorry inflated
butt out of the sling he puts it in. Shows who has the real power here.
Facts and logic easily overwhelm him. When he is losing (which is most of
the time) he begins playing like a broken record, hiccupung and jumping
back to the same mantra over and over. The jumps curiously omit the rather
bad portion of his vinyl which just keeps going in circles, spiraling down
to just the sound of static and the microphonics of a cheap tone arm
hanging it up.
