I can't but wonder who these posters take Nairalanders for. However, since it's a free world, he's got the right to post things, as St, d as it might look.
I am happy for the responses so far, I can't but laugh at all of them.

@ Pssword:

Chief, you might want to tell us the essence of your posts o, Professor, (of  Engineering) if you cannot disseminate knowledge of which you claim mastery, to people you claim are "ignorant",  Must all of us be  Engineers before we grasp little detail in a simple question (asked by dpresident to which your response was based, chief? Therefore, you might want to explain who then is making "vacuous Prattle" if you can not even be a bit sensible.

That takes me to your earlier post as you suggested in your post viz:

"First of all, this is not an engineering discussion because Ivvie is writing NONSENSE He must be a sophomore or junior engineering student who hasn't quite understood the subject matter or some copy and paste jocky with little or no vague idea about engineering. I mean copying poorly formed partial differential equations from God knows where.  Equivocating, maybe prevaricate may be a closer word, on the 2nd Law of thermo. He had no understanding of the role of entropy in a sytem, heat or otherwise.  For me this was the biggest herring. When people use big big grammer and cryptic jargon when asked really simple question, you can quickly tell that there are trying to hide their ignorance.  Thank God I have an engineering background or I would have been bamboozled by charlatans like this Ivvie guy. "

You started by saying Ivvie wrote "NONSENSE",  and I am yet to see any "SENSE" in your response, quoted above. If Ivvie doesn't understand 2nd law of Thermodynamics, what have you done to correct or educate (NOTHING, except all these "big big grammer and cryptic jargon". Mr. Bamboozle and chalatans.

Why is it so freaking easy for you to abuse at the word "go". E re n le Baba Purofeso. You better have a bit of "reasonability" in your loins and don't be put off by simple suggestion I made earlier (You can refer to it, if you are "ignorant".

I really appreciate the in-depth knowledge of Ivvie and Midas. To me, both know what they are saying and are ready to prove it. Just may be, one person needs to hear the other out and reason along. You just might be surprised that they may be saying the same thing in different ways. As to Midas, you only wanted to prove an argument and u don't have to rain insults at the other person. Be a professional you claim to be.

You---Pssword ( or whatever you name is), it will be better for you to understand a line of argument before you talk here, don't just participate because you want to feel among. Nobody is taking sides here and there is no street fight here. You might want to go to Oshodi to do that. These are learned and experienced people arguing what they both think they know out. If you know anything or you want to support, come out in the same vein and let's hear you out.

We are all matured (or I think we all are) and so must behave as such.

Lots of people have attested to the fact that they benefited immensely from the argument in question, so did I. BTW you pursued the poster in question(dpresident). He only asked for an advise. I guess the guy has picked what he needed from your arguments leaving you both to your showoffs (putting it mildly).

Thank God for you. God is really a wonderful God. Just stay close to him because to get a job might be easy sometimes, but to keep the job and do well therein takes HIS grace. All the best of God at your new assignment.

Poster, your joke is funny amidst the fact that there are lots of typographic errors. I guess I'll them also as jokes.
