ICs problem with you Spud is that he thought he had you wrapped up in his tentacles but found that you have a mind of your own and his final disappointment was you began to DISAGREE with his conjectures.
That was a great blow to his ego so he started to dig up anything to discredit you.
I think he had a dot to dot picture book when young and still uses it only this time (from his bedroom) played the Conspiracy card with "belief systems" that he abhors.
As far as the BP oil spill is concerned he couldn't give a frig, after all as far as he is concerned it is high quality "loosh", so how can one really take him seriously?
