As I recall, StanB already has quite a record of misspelling words in
English. Now StanB has added misspelling words in Swahili, such as
as "mizunge" (sic), to his favourite anti-intellectual opening repetoire.
Mr. petty earns "Brownie points" with the Spelling Police, but he probably
doesn't realize he is still a very distant third -- behind Edward Winter and
Larry Parr -- two men whose backs are sore from patting themselves there.
On the contrary, I am neither surprised nor especially disturbed any more to
encounter frequent errors in English spelling, grammar, and usage. And I
usually don't trouble myself to correct them unless I am being paid to do it.
For instance, I have not corrected any of NoMoreChess's previous errors in
spelling. In this case, however, Stan Booz was making a point of insisting
(as I recall, he had done it at least twice) on misspelling a word in Swahili,
which is evidently a language of which he has no real knowledge, and his
ignorance there was beginning to irritate me again.
So how could I be "projecting" about what StanB believes and why he snipped
Bill Brock's post to me?
Simple. You see what you *want* to see, and this relates directly to *you,*
not him.
NoMoreChess's inane comment "relates directly" to his deficiencies in reading.
In fact, StanB wrote about why he had snipped Bill Brock's post to me, and what
StanB wrote was in complete accord with what I had thought about why he did it.
So there was no "projection" on my part.
If you're really interested in what Stan Booz thinks about something, just
ask him -- straight out. That would be the honest approach.
In his "reponse" to my post, NoMoreChess ignored all the direct evidence that
I cited to prove that Stan Booz has *lied* about me. Here's a link to it:
