Chris Falter, come on. Your main activity here has been to go after
Sam Sloan. You have every right to do that, just as I have every right
to skip over your haranguing.

It's not enough to edit ad-hominem posts pointed out to you by PM, by
1pm the next business day. You are responsible not to use that garbage
technique in the first place.


I've been trying hard to avoid ad hominem attacks, and I'm claiming
success. I really think I haven't used the garbage technique. I've
certainly read many other commentators say stuff like "C'mon Sam, why
should we ever believe you?" or "Sam, you are such a _______." I've
done my best to stick scrupulously to the issues and the facts.

I also recognize that I'm a fallible human being, and I may have
failed in reaching the goal. That's why I invite fellow USCF members
to help me if I've failed.

And if someone wants to call me on something publicly, I think I'll be
able to handle that, too. I've already edited a couple of posts in
response to legitimate criticism.
