Look Albert, I have been amazed and then appalled at your ability to behave as if you are structural engineer, or some such. I disagree with Jeffrey but I wouldn't dare to tell him he is incompetent, as you have with Tony. Your posts the last few days have been jaw dropping--and not in a good way.
I'm failing to see what point you are trying to make if you can't answer what I wrote in my last posts? If you can't answer that means the controlled demolition proponents can't back their claims.
Fascinating exercise in the construction of a logical argument, Albert.
If Lauren can't answer a question, all whose views mirror his own on this issue must be wrong.
Why didn't I reach so painfully obvious and logical a conclusion?
Again, I'm respectfully asking that you take time out of what must be your extraordinarily time-consuming schedule of reading, teaching, and writing to help us appreciate your insights.
What do you read?
Who teaches you?
Honestly, I'm at a loss to find ways to reach independently your levels of insight.
And I need to. Desperately.
I need your help, and I can but hope that you don't hold our previous public disputes against me.
In good faith that mirrors your own,
Charles

If an individual, through either his own volition or events over which he had no control, found himself taking up residence in a country undefined by flags or physical borders, he could be assured of one immediate and abiding consequence: He was on his own, and solitude and loneliness would probably be his companions unto the grave.

You can't blame the innocent, they are always guiltless. All you can do is control them or eliminate them. Innocence is a kind of insanity.
