To answer your question, Jeff is of sound mind, just grew up in NYC. All of the folks from NYC I have encountered in my life thus far act similar to him. It is just a trait of the area. The main thing I can tell you is try not to be confrontational as far as directing anything specifically at him. When folks attack his products, it is an attack on him personally. Now, I will tell you, if someone personally attacks me, I might be the same way. I just try to be diplomatic first before I climb down that ladder of ugliness. I know that there are many that don't like Jeff and vice versa, but when he feels that it is personal, the NYC in him comes out. Just try to be as civil as possible and if the dialog starts to turn down that ugly road, just go the other way and don't address it. Addressing it is how these nasty arguments blow up on the threads/forums.
