I'll play Devil's Advocate for the minority and say I have learned a lot of philosophical treasures from Rob. Life truly wouldn't be the same without his internet persona.
I'm trying to learn everything I can about discipline and mental toughness from him. I say this in all seriousness. Everybody has something good to offer.
It also takes a strong personality to withstand constant flaming from many people piling on you at once on many different message boards, doesn't it? Many mortals would simply give up the forum wars long before Rob ever has.
Still not 100% certain about his VP results. I hold out a last bastion of hope.
