Seig Heil!!! :-)

Next up, Jim will once again attempt to invoke Mr. Godwin's
rule.

"attempt"? Hardly!

Attempt, definitely. Because, as has been demonstrated many times
before, the discusion will continue regardless of whether Godwin's
impotent rule has been 'invoked' or not.

The version of Godwin's rule that I use says that the person
who uses stoops to calling their opponent "Hitler", "Nazis"
or references to them, has lost the argument. That the discussion
continues is irrelevant. Len has lost the argument.

I see. Thanks for clearing that up, Jim - for a minute there, I was
afraid that you hadn't accomplished anything useful there!

But it just had to be done, didn't it?

No, it didn't. But I did it anyway.

Of course you did. You had to!

Is there a problem with that? Do you think Len's slurs
are acceptable behavior?

There are several folks here whose 'slurs' and language are much worse
than this example (a reference to the bumbling and comical 'Nazis' on
"Hogan's Heroes") - always has been, always will be. It's not my job
to run around and point that out all day every day.

It's not my job to point that out to each and every participant on
this group Jim - is it yours? Why?

You are correct there Leo. Jim is perfectly capable of not responding
to anything Len posts. We all are.

And of course, Len knows quite well that all he has to do is put in a
reference to the Nazi's, and it will get a response. Sets the hook quite
regularly, he does! Irresistible bait apparently.

Stalemate. Looks like everyone is getting exactly what they want.
