Note: In case it escaped you, 'close-minded' IS a word of my own invention, and, if read in context, you'll see the double (triple, if you're perceptive) meaning it can take on. Both adament and layed were honest mistakes due to the celerity with which I type.
razordu30: I may come across as arrogant, but, I assure you, it has more to do with my misanthropy and resentment than a profound belief in my abilities.

You miss the point Grammarian was trying to make. If you are more intellegent than the rest of us, you should not be making mistakes. But, this is my thought, you have proven you aren't an intellectual, just arrogant.
