118. Very good!
I like that.

My offer still stands, of course: I'd be pleased to debate him on issues involving violence, length of life, and the connections between diet and health. I'd expect him to produce serious documentation to back up his claims. I can easily do so, in a manner that would convince any serious person reading our little exchange. Because I'm very familiar with the "proof" that his type rely on, and can easily expose the shallowness of his thinking, I do not expect any serious response from him. Still, I appreciate his providing us with another episode of clown theater on this thread.
