Hiya, Bob.

 *>Intelligence!

It doesn't come when you call for it, Bob.. you have to be 
born with it, or work for it.  :)

 *>> THAT is what I mean by "information", AssTricks.

 *>Thanks for making that clear.  Get a dictionary.  
Information is anything
 *>that can be known.  

My dictionary defines it at:  n. 1. Knowledge acquired or 
derived; facts; data.  2. Timely or specific knowledge; news. 
3. The act of informing, or the act of being informed.

I'll stick to my argument, Bob.  Someone has to "acquire" 
that knowledge, or "derive" it from previously known 
knowledge.  Therefore, your assertion that information is 
anything that CAN be know is false.  Your tense is incorrect.  
If it isn't known, it isn't information.

I hope you learned something from this experience.  ;)

 *>For instance, you are a coward.  

And you are a fool.  There.  Now that we've traded insults, 
I'll show why you are a liar as well.

Since I'm experienced at tangling with those with no morals, 
I've found that it's not smart to leave an easy target for 
them to lob mailbombs and other nasties at.

What's a mailbomb?  Well, get a disposable e-mail account, 
load it with lots of .mp3's, and send a letter to your 
favorite enemy saying "I thought you might enjoy listening to 
these!".  Attach your load of .mp3's and us poor suckers with 
slow access get to twiddle our thumbs for however many hours 
it takes to download the damn things.

The Turlettes aren't nice folks.  I won't play into their 
hands.  Call me names if you wish.  I'll just blow you off as 
another unthinking fool.

 *>Are you going to sue me for stealing that information?  I 
dont' think so,

Nah...  You're too stupid to have much money.  ;)

 *>you share that information every time you post here.  
There are synonyms 
 *>for lots of things, but some have a slightly different 
meaning.

Yah.. that sorta defines synonyms.  ;)

 *>> Now you can tell US how you can have information without
 *>> form, format or presentation.  Give it your best shot,
 *>> Doofus.

 *>Information exists.  You don't have to present it, form 
it, or format it.

Yes you do, Bob.  There is no other way of acquiring it.
 
 *>Dirt is rocks, trees, animals that have decomposed.  It 
exists.

The existance of dirt is not in question.  Dirt is not 
information.  However, the knowledge that dirt was composed 
of rocks, decomposed animals and such was _acquired_.  Folks 
had to work to find these facts.  They should get credit for 
their discoveries, and if it is patentable, then they should 
receive recompense.

Now, you and that bozo, AssTricks seem to be from the same 
school that the rest of the Turlettes come from.  Obviously, 
you've never chased down a fact in your lives, so you don't 
know the effort that it takes.

But you want the rewards anyway.  Free.  

 *>> Personally, AssTricks, you should look into a brain
 *>> transplant.
 *>>

 *>You are one of the most intelligent posters I've ever 
read.

Ah... Sarcasm.  Not bad.  ;)

 *>I know why you call yourself a 'cat'.  You're a 'scared-y 
cat'.

 *>You are a coward.

Well, since I've already addressed this, I'll let it lie.  
Perhaps you should leave this kind of stuff to Imbecilicon 
and RosyWanker, Bob.  You're not well suited for it.

 *>Bob
