Now it's correct.

"Sticks and Stones -- If you're being wiped out with evidence and
reasoning you cannot refute, you can always take refuge in complaining
about the language being used by your adversaries. For example, if
they say, "I've already explained that it takes less gas to kill
people than lice, and therefore there are fewer cyanide residues
remaining on the gas chamber walls than on the delousing chamber
walls, you moron," you can respond by complaining about their use of
the word "moron." You can actually evade quite a bit of serious
discussion by spending a lot of time condescendingly lecturing the
newsgroup about their use of trashy language. But this approach
doesn't work very well in building credibility. You may view yourself
as an arbiter of social discourse but you'll actually come off like a
den-mother scurrying around excoriating the little Cub Scouts to
behave themselves."
