Sorry you don't like it Elle, but the facts are the facts. I have 
launched 0 personal attacks against Benjamin, yet he repeatedly calls me 
by name.

You don't like me responding, that's fine, I can respect that.

However, you do NOT have the right to tell me "enough".

There was no attack on Ben because of his "philosophy", it was a direct 
response on his attack against me. If you can go dig up a response that 
was from me based on someone else's philosophy, show it to me, and 
you'll get my apology.

If not, I'll file your little rant along with the ones from Benjamin. In 
the "Folks who say "I'll do what I want, and you do what I want" "file.
