More uncalled for insults that don't even border on rational discourse:

Which seems to have hit a nerve with Ryan. Too bad. he should have at 
least tried to make an effort at a reasonable disagreement, instead of 
once again wallowing in the gutter.

Most of his posts this evening seem to be little more than general 
insults akin to the specific insult he directed at Bob, which is why it 
went and the otehrs haven't, yet. If this vein continues, I think it is 
reasonable to eventually consider hiding the general ones also, if they 
remain the majority of his output. Most tonight certainly fit the 
definition of "Off-Topic Post: ...posts that are baldly and clearly 
inappropriate, whose purpose seems clearly to be other than informing, 
educating or adding to a public discourse." The only diffference is they 
are directed at people in general, rather than specific individuals, 
although some were, in fact, directed at yours truly, who is even 
thicker-skinned than Ryan is thick-headed.

As usual, discussion, if needed, at this week's Steering group meeting.
