Please read the following statements and observe that they are correct.

1) The thread is cross-posted to four newsgroups.
2) My comment indicates quite clearly that I know who Simon is.

Once these have been confirmed it is easy to deal with your comment. I
posted in a newsgroup called rec.music.makers.songwriting and cannot
avoid knowing who Simon Cowell is even though I would like to.
Therefore, I refute the allegation that I am dumb as it was clearly
based on incorrect assumptions.
