Poor bastard. He can have SOME OF MINE to make his text more recognisable.

I hate it when nutters aren't allowed to use the capital letters nature
intended them to have. It's bad enough that there's no green ink on
Usenet without that.

  It may be objected, that many who are capable of the higher pleasures,
occasionally, under the influence of temptation, postpone them to the
lower. But this is quite compatible with a full appreciation of the
intrinsic superiority of the higher. Men often, from infirmity of
character, make their election for the nearer good, though they know it
to be the less valuable; and this no less when the choice is between two
bodily pleasures, than when it is between bodily and mental.-- J.S.Mill
