Irrelevant. No one is faulting you (nor did anyone ever fault you in the past) for your opinions or beliefs, including those opinions or beliefs that ran/run contrary to our own. Re-read my previous post and attempt to comprehend the language in the American vernacular.
Your methodology is signature. It is of a specific genre. It is contrived. It is the same as that of Ronald Williams and CIA asset Bradley Ayers. Notwithstanding the support garnered from my close friend, Jim Fetzer, by Ayers...it still reeks.
Quote: In 2 cases I took the most accepted scientific positions... [snip]
Who gives a rat's ass about the "most accepted scientific position"??? That is irrelevant. Galileo claimed that the Earth was not at the center of the universe, a claim that ran contrary to your "most accepted scientific position" of the day. He was sentenced to house arrest for the remainder of his life, but--as it turned out--HE WAS RIGHT! So, taking the "most accepted scientific position" is no argument as to the validity of that "scientific position" is it? No. It most certainly is not. Moreover, the qualitative value that you have so conveniently assigned to YOUR "theory" being that of "most accepted scientific position" is arbitrary. After all, WHO ASSIGNED YOU THE ROLE OF JUDGING WHAT IS THE "MOST ACCEPTED SCIENTIFIC POSITION" in the first place?
Quote: ... i.e. oil is not continually regenerated by some interior planetary process & of course the reality of AGW.
Again, you persist in assuming "facts not in evidence" by your phrase: "& of course the reality of AGW."
No, Gary. Not "of course the reality of AGW"! That has very often been the SUBJECT of the discussion. You are either dense, elderly beyond competence, or an "agent" of some sort. I do NOT say this lightly. I grow weary of you and those of your ilk.
Quote:The sewer shooter myth I disagreed with was based on a presentation given at Lancer by a Mr. Parker? I believe.
Who cares? This "display of true colors" is not about, nor has it ever in the past been about, your opinions or beliefs. It is about something much deeper.
Quote:You guys took the cognitive dissonance route in all your benightedness in all 3 of these issues.
I have suffered you long enough.
Quote:Your misrepresentation of what went on there is what is reprehensible.
I have the forum ARCHIVES. So does Scott Myers.

I heard that you were a school teacher. Lord God, help us all!
