The tendency to take the high moral ground and then use that position to
deliberately distort his opponents views is absolutely typical of Colin's
rhetoric. I also have had recent occasion to point this out to him. This
rather childish and crude method of justifying his own paranoiac ideas
gives little substance to anything he has to say. My advice would be to
ignore him and focus your attention on more informed opinion.
Paul.
