Don't be silly, Don. Of *course* he has more stupid questions!
BURT's entire posting career consists of a mix of stupid questions,
stupid assertions, stupid attempts at logic, and stupid conclusions.

Not true. When he's having a really good day he's *amusingly* stupid.

It can also be a sign of trolldom. Who can say that at one time or
another, he hasn't posited some ludicrous claim, knowing it to be
false? I prefer to post things that I believe to be true, but state
them in such a way as to *imply* something I do not believe (when I
troll at all), vs. outright lies. Sometimes, though, I say things in
jest, expecting readers to understand that I don't mean them, but get
responses indicating that readers think I'm serious. Of course, that
doesn't comply with your description, so this is a bit of a...what's
the word?

Women should not be subject to the draft.

Well, you can go to the metalevel and realize that all this is just
waste of time, and raise a garden.

I like raised gardens; they're easier to reach. Unfortunately,
they're harder to build, so most of the gardens I've created have been
at ground level. Now I'm living in CO, and we garden very little.

<loon>
Plants cannot grow, because they start with a single cell, which
cannot ever become more than one cell, and cells are unable to change
size. They're always the same, microscopic size. QED.
Now, if particles were able to move backward through time, maybe
*animals* could grow, but not plants.
</loon>

How's that? Burtish enough for you, or do I need pharmacological help
to reach that level?
