Maybe not, but it does explain a lot about you.

Maybe it doesn't. Maybe it's a waste of time to justify incompetence by posting such links. In the case at hand it was obvious incompetence, so the such link is obviously out of place and is only aimed as an ad hominem attack.

No, I think it does. Aren't you the one that started the ad hominem attack on him? Just because someone doesn't agree with everything the great omnibus says doesn't mean that they are "obviously incompetent"

What I said was not about agreeing with someone but pointing out incompetence. There should be no tolerance towards incompetence and pointing out incompetence in no way means ad hominem attack. Ad hominem attack is to start posting irrelevant links in response to criticism for incompetence.
