I accept that that wasn't actually what Slim was saying and I misconstrued his post... but if I'm wrong in the above thinking then also let me know? I can admit that I don't know vast amounts about it.

You also implied his non violent approach was why he is respected as a great. It seemed a quite bizarre point to make because its absolute nonsense. You dont need to tell me you dont know much about it, I can tell.

We can go a few rounds more on this if you want and we'll see exactly how much you dont know. Not nice being talked down to is it?
