JVP is the only guy I enjoyed arguing with. I miss him. The only real beef I had with him is that we have the same initials - Jeff Vernon Pace.

I believe in complete freedom of speech. In that respect, Larry Flint is my hero even though he was one of the world's biggest jerks.

Sure, he was sarcastic and harsh, and I've had many debates with him about getting a point across in ways that are neither sheepish nor harsh - but between the meanness was some real truth about things.
