    My guess is that it'll take a while.  Fred's been swimming and
 breathing the contents of the cesspool known as the HolySmoke echo for
 so long, he's forgotten how to behave civilly.  It'll take a monumental
 paradigm shift for him to learn to rationally discuss an issue for the
 purpose of learning and growing, rather than attacking his perceived
 opponent in an adolescent attempt to inflate his ego as is the norm in
 HolySmoke.  But I give him credit for at least poking a breathing tube
 above the surface of the muck to gasp at some fresh air.  Perhaps there
 *is* hope.
... You can lead the mind to matter, but you can't make it think.
