<RANT>Just like talking to people at a party, some people like to hear themselves or see themselves in print. Often these people can not be wrong.
It seems that it is just not possible mentally for them to admit that they might be mistaken or that you might actually have a valid point. I find that these people also show up on many forums and exhibit the same attitudes.
When I can I use the ignore feature for them because whatever information that they give that might be valid is tainted by my perception of them.
<END RANT>
I try to differentiate between opinion, experience and fact and use references when possible. If I am wrong about something then please call me on it. I prefer it that way.
