The best advice I have for dealing with Know-it-alls is either complete silence (best!) OR simply say: "I'm not clear what you mean. Can you say that again?" Or simply respond with one word questions: "And?" "So?" "Point?"

Remember, it isn't about you. It is about their need to feel superior. I agree with Karen, your post indicates a level of intelligence and thoughtfulness. Some buttons are just more easily pushed than others. I too have a "thing" about being made to feel stupid. It doesn't happen very often but it really sets me off.
