And the "Most Inane Apologist for the System Major-domo Award",
affectionately called "the MIASMA" when we can stand the stench,
goes to... Ken Arndt himself, *NOT* for going out on a limb so early
and often to defend very popular causes (like his favorite octogenarian,
Ronnie) against a few agnostics (life in the fast lane, eh Ken?), 
but for his sychophantic debating style.  The above snippet is what
put KA over the top in the semantic swimsuit competition.  He goes
right for the jugular by (1) spelling folks' names wrong--apparently
intentionally though that's giving him the benefit of the doubt, and
(2--this is the piece de resistance) *INSULTING THEIR EMPLOYER!*
Wow, Ken, you sure know how to hurt a guy.
