One person's opinion

[Java]

To piggy back on the posts of Father Bill, and Jock's way back on the first page; In this life a man is only going to aquire a small handful of friends that he'd trust with his life, and that can and will tell him when he's screwing up. So the question is, is this one of those friends or not? If it is, you have to let him know you're serious about it, (using more tact than he apparently did) and try to explain why. If he is not one of that handful of men, tell him to suck it up and deal with it..........
