This is not directed towards anyone in particular. It is really more of a reminder to me:I don't think it is very civil - and certainly not productive - to talk about Lou Pilder in ways that ridicule him or his behavior. We should probably avoid the temptation to develop theories of mind to explain him. This certainly doesn't mean that we should avoid challenging him intellectually. I find that Lou Pilder only rarely engages in debate. I have therefore focused on offering to readers alternative explanations and perspectives to counter those promulgated by Mr. Pilder. I try to challenge him directly rather than speak about him in the third person.
Sometimes, silence is the most persuasive argument.
We are, of course, giving Mr. Pilder quite a bit of attention by talking about him in this thread.
