But if it's true (and in Paul's case I would content that at least the second is
certain, the first applied in context, and the second two I didn't use, so you are
putting words in my mouth: that's false witness, in other words, lying) then it
isn't name calling.

I didn't call Kelli a single name - reread the post. That means you lied about me -
again. People who lie, are liars. There's an accurate name calling for you. Care to
retract your lie? Then I'll reconsider my "name calling" of you.

Well, in the case of calling Kelli names, it comes from your fertile imagination.
In the case of Paul, it's a case of calling something that waddles, quacks, has a
bill and webbed feet a duck. Reread his post - he takes, he proudly proclaims, and
won't give back, which he also proudly proclaims. That's what a parasite does. As
for the comments about his lack of intelligence, his posts demonstrate that if he
has any, he doesn't show it in his arguments. In the context of calling him a
nitwit, it was because he couldn't understand Bruce's clearly written sentences. In
another case in point, he says, "In fact, I don't USE my Apple
II's for anything" and then he talks about how he uses them. Of course, what he
obviously meant was he doesn't use his IIs for doing anything productive. An
intelligent person would have phrased the statement like that. But not ol' Paul,
because he isn't too terribly bright.

Anyone is easy to ignore. Just do what Paul does - put your head firmly in the sand
and refuse to deal with those who say things you don't want to hear.
