25. Silence Shouts Truth!

Yes, indeed, it does.

Some people use discussion forums as playgrounds. Some children on playgrounds find it amusing to throw sand in other people's eyes. Eventually, someone throws sand into their eyes, in return. That becomes an object lesson for some people. For others, it simply creates a need to escalate.

It's easy to provoke people. That doesn't take a lot of intellectual capacity. It's harder to actually argue a point. Too hard for some for whom throwing sand in people's eyes suffices as an amusement.

Some people are very persistent in their quest for amusement. Still, one can only sweep sand under the rug for a while.
