BTW, it never entered my logical programming mind moot statements such 
as that.  Someone comes up to you and say "You're an asshole!" and 
you're supposed to be offended?  Let's take at look at it of both sides:

1) you're an asshole.  Why should you be offended with the truth?
2) you're not an asshole.  Why should you be offended by a liar telling 
a lie?

Yes, I'm aware it probably has to do with what others think of you, but 
what others think of me is not really my concern:  I have not much voice 
about what they should think of me besides trying to appease both greeks 
and trojans.

In other words, the only answer to that is Wu.
