About time Alan weighed in but he's pretty considered in his opinions publicly.

I once had a polite debate with him on a fine day. He didn't know me from boo. But I had his contact info locked and I persecuted him through various email means, first trying to extend, then proof, then deride his original position.

His first response was "do I know you?"

His second response was "get away from me you freak".

His third response was "what did I ever do to you to deserve this?"

So if anybody is in doubt that Alan Korwin can honestly answer any question and stand up for his and our position, I'll put you though what I put him through and you can tell me how you feel after that.
