Really now, Larry -- you had to *_guess_* who wrote that? I
reproduce below, in its entirety, the post in question, made by Sam
Sloan on April 21:

Hmmm, so Larry would have preferred that Germany won World War I.
Interesting.
Larry Parr has a valid and interesting point. If Germany had won
World
War I, Hitler would never have risen to power and World War II might
not have happened.
If all those Americans had not died fighting in France, Sam Sloan
might never have risen to power.
If Queen Victoria had not carried the gene for hemophilia, which she
spread to all the Royal Families of Europe by marrying all her
children into those families, the Royal Families might still rule
Europe.
Anyway, I have just ordered one copy of FATEFUL YEARS 1909-1916 (The
Reminiscences of Serge Sazonov G.C.B., G.C.V.O. Russian Minister for
Foreign Affairs: 1914)
If the book turns out to be in good condition (not fuzzy) I will
reprint it.

So, even though it clearly began with a quote from me, and then
argued against that quote, you thought it was me?
And even though it said "Larry Parr has a valid and interesting
point," something I very seldom say, you guessed it was me??
And even though it talked about "Sam Sloan rising to power," you
thought it was someone *_besides_* Sam Sloan???
And even though Sam *_clearly signed his name_*, you had to guess,
and guessed it was me????
C'mon Larry, you can think up a better lie than that.
