Well, if you can care less, you should then try, ie: not posting in his threads :)

Hugo, I agree with you.

I'm sure you agree that there's a difference between "raising the level of debate" and "debating for sake of debating". Most of Mike's posts (for some time now) definitely fall into the latter category. You're right, people should ignore him....and his replies to Charles and his comments about copy editing at CoDe Magazine are idiotic remarks about non-issues.

I filtered him at one point, turned off the filter, and now I'm turning it back on. I think others should do the same.
