Re: One of life's losers...

That's a very good point. I have some sympathy for Pleskov, I've been in environments where 'winning' was fetishised to the point that cheating, lying, and sabotaging others was practically encouraged.

That said, this was no such an environment so that feeling was down to him alone. It does sound like he's learned that lesson though, the hard way.
