So long, and thanks for all the fish

This has been my Talk page. My new year resolution for 2010 is to spend less time online and more outdoors, so I guess I'm done with Wiki.

I've met some very kind and knowledgable people on here who have put me right on various subjects, but I've also encountered quite a few little self-congratulatory cliques of charlatans. Nowadays everybody considers themselves to be an expert, and the saying "Never argue with an idiot - they just bring you down to their level, then beat you with experience" rings particularly true on here. Anyway, Happy New Year and all the best for 2010. Ivor the driver (talk) 11:10, 3 January 2010 (UTC)
