Jim,

You need a hobby. Try drink and women.


well lotus, when she grows up, will probably drive some poor sap to
drink.

I long ago discovered that you are wasting your time trying to cope will
all her mistakes at once. The only way to deal with her is to stop
reading the lengthy pile she makes of her posts when you come to her
first major error. Stop there, snip the rest and just go about getting
that one corrected.
Once you have got that one corrected (which can take ten or more posts)
you move to the next fatuous error.
Attempting to hold a reasoned conversation with her is a waste of time,
she will keep shifting her ground and attempt to swamp you with yet more
cut and paste extravaganzas from more and more bizarre websites.

Normally I make another rule, only answer one of her posts, if necessary
combining several into that one, as life is too short to waste too much
time on her.


I do find dealing with her useful in that she comes up with all the
hackneyed cliches and you do get to see just which long exploded scare
story is about to start doing the rounds again.
This means that when you come to deal with reasonable people in the real
world, you have had chance to check up on the data and can help prevent
a re-run of the last panic.
