Dr. Bob,
I think Chemist showed incredible restraint in not saying a lot worse to flmm and company when they insulted him so viciously. He clearly stopped the escalation of insults on his end by holding his tongue when truly horrible, hurtful things were said about him. I wonder if I could have managed such restraint under the circumstances. By not recognizing that and penalizing him so harshly, I think you're sending a message that you might as well go all out and fight to the finish whenever a dispute arises because you're going to be severely punished anyway.
