Actually, Longwinded never bothered me all that much.  I think the three attributes about LW that could grate on people were that 1) he turned backhanded compliments into an art form, and 2) he was a skillful writer, and 3) he was a successful lawyer who actually enjoyed the debate.  I tried not to get into it with him; as they say, never mud wrestle with a pig; you just get dirty and the pig enjoys it.
