If I'm in the mood I can tolerate a bit of an argument with him but it's a kind of Pythonesque 'is this the 5 minute argument or the full half hour' situation. I used to be on another site with a much worse troll who had about 60 (really) different user names and they were all too recognisable. You couldn't win an argument with him because every time you got the better of him he changed the subject. All very sad really. But it was fun to have a banter with him occasionally. He eventually got that bad nobody would speak to him at all then he started creating ever more names to get a reply, it's all attention seeking really. UTB is not dissimilar but nowhere near as bad really.

Ha ha! Hilarious. You really are one of these people who has to try (with devastating failure) to trawl Google to find something, anything, that will back you up. That is sad mate, really sad. How do you have an argument face to face?
Bloke in pub: So what do you think of that UTB?
UTB: Hang on, I'll just have to go on my phone.
Bloke: What for.
UTB: Well I need to try to counter your argument.
Bloke: And?
UTB: Well, I need to look at Google.
Bloke: Can't you just argue your point?
UTB: No.....I haven't got one till I look it up.

I'm not sure what your little Google graph is supposed to prove but if it makes you happy then bless you. I bet that took you ages as well, shame I'm not impressed. Ha ha!

It didn't take ages at all, because it's a graph I've known about for a while.

It's also the reason I don't drink Asda Chardonnay at £4 a pop.
