And, you stereotyping people from NYC and using childish sarcasm on a
public email list is any more classy?  Think again.  Even if you had a
valid argument you shot yourself in the proverbial foot by being such
a hypocrite.

"You go from using big "graduate school" words to an e-mail with expletives"

Graduate school words?  I ain't never been to none of them graduate
schools but I know the meaning of every word Bob used.  Maybe you
should quit slamming the education and intellectual level of NYCers
and look in the mirror!  You should've learned those words before you
even had a high school diploma.

Personally I think judging somebody on their accent is as foolish as
judging them by the color of their skin.
