gentlemen

A fellow blogger recently commented on the gentle way I handled a spammer. I am reminded of a quote, which I'll try my best to recite:


"A gentleman always calls his adversary a 'Gentleman.'
He knows that if he calls the man a fool, and is wrong,
then he himself becomes the fool.
But if he calls him a 'gentleman' and is wrong,
then he remains a gentleman."

Just curious, how DID you handle the spammer? I have been getting my share the last two days all of a sudden.

BD2, I handled him/her very gently. You can see the dialog here:

or by clicking the link in the comment above. Realize that my "handling" is mere sarcasm - it was never meant to provide any solution.
