Watch his behavior when he is asked to consider other options than he brings from his C++ background. Watch his _very_ strong need to go personal when he is challenged. > It is not his fault that he walks a path this group has seen many times > before. It _is_ his fault he fails to recognize that he does so after several people try to communicate to him beyond his "I had this with C++, so I need excatly the same thing in every other environment" stance. I have actually tried to get this stupid troll to think beyond his very limited vision of what he needs. His hostility in response to requests for a deeper understanding of what he is after is indicative of a lack of willingness to think about what he is really after, and _that_ suggests a permanently limited vision, probably by will, and that is precisely what a troll is. However, _you_ are free to give him all he "needs", Coby. Do not expect him to be satisfied with anything, _ever_. Trolls never are, remember? > Please define what you mean be "we". Christ, Coby, grow the hell up! ///
