the answer is that dobber is a troll who thinks he is doing us all a tremendous service by pointing out the idiocy of other A&S posters, whereas the idiocy is mostly on his part. I use the ignore function on him these days. I also expect wild speculative garbage to be posted on a regular basis in A&S....but don't consider it my life's work to correct each and every one of those posts the way dobber seems to.
