  Marsh, I haven't the resources and the time to devote to the pains
necessary to solve this, but somebody should and I hope they will:.  It is
an interesting and legitimate question to research; and I think you will
agree, to wit:

  With what regularity do you charactize other posters in this NG as liars,
or silly?

FYI, I ONLY refer to other posters as liars if they have exhibited in the past that trend to always call others liars. Fighting fire with fire. Turning their tricks back on them.
As for silly, I rarely call a person silly. I often call a concept silly. Can you understand the subtle difference?

  An answer would give some perspective on where you are generally coming
from, Neh?
