If you want to be amused by a story about Harlan Ellison losing a war of words, go here and read about his behaviour when sharing the guest of honour spot with the Penny Arcade guys...
I once spent a good part of a weekend doing personal security for Harlan at a scifi con, and I didn't come off with a much better impression of the man. A huge case of 'little man syndrome'. I.e. Need to talk and act twice as big to make up for some perceived short coming.
