How to handle an aggressive interviewer

I was hoping to see something more constructive than "I made the troll apologize and then marched out." I mean, there's nothing wrong with doing that -- on the contrary, more people should do it when warranted -- but it's also not something I (personally) find interesting enough to post about or read about.

If it helps give others the courage to do the same thing when appropriate it's worthwhile.

Plus this was above and beyond most any job interview nastiness I've ever read and otherwise somewhat interesting. And unfortunately I have to agree with the many of the commentators: too many women get abusive when they get into positions of authority (at least in software development in my experience).
