Honestly, I actually had a fun time "arguing" with fpb, but I'm the kind that enjoys getting down in the mud with someone and slugging it out (er, rhetorically), even if it does leave me feeling vaguely dirty afterwards. I think the core problem with fpb isn't that he engages in insult-slinging contests--that's a venerable pastime, especially on the internet--but that he takes the entire thing way way way too seriously.

All that said, while I understand your temptation to write this post, I can't imagine it'll help. TBQH, the only people who care about the Inverarity/fpb feud are Inverarity and fpb, and nothing you do (nothing anyone could possibly do) will convince fpb he's wrong. If anything, this'll only encourage him. I imagine you know that already, but still, felt it had to be said.
