"Taylor Kingston" wrote in message I think some of the language used by Brock, Booz, Houlsby and others here is gratuitously crude, vulgar, and offensive.

O come on Taylor! you have picked on Sam Sloan's bad language on this singular occasion and only noted the same of your usual supporters when their effusions are forcibly held under your nose! nil fuit umquam sic impar sibi, nothing was ever so inconsistent with itself to a philosopher, what one does is much more significant that what one says one does why are you lying down with dogs? if you were intending to be sincere about calling out the more asinine commentaries here, why research only research those who disagree with you? you are in some danger of completely converting from asinine to canine cordially, phil innes |

Chess One wrote: O come on Taylor! you have picked on Sam Sloan's bad language on this singular occasion and only noted the same of your usual supporters when their effusions are forcibly held under your nose! Phil, as usual you completely miss the point. My target here is not so much Sloan as Parr. Your argument would be relevant if I had praised, say, Brock, Booz, or Houlsby for the gentlemanly restraint of their language compared to Sloan's. I have not, because their language has not been so restrained. Parr, on the other hand, has plainly said that Sloan "is to be admired in certain ways when compared with a Brock, Booz, Trollsby." Well, I just don't see any evidence for that; I have a hard time admiring anyone who says "The reason Japanese girls come to America is to get f--ked by a N--ger." Parr so far has not told us what he admires about that statement. Parr has also said "Mr. Sloan's language is cleaner than that of most of his gutter critics." Well, it ain't, nor is his mind.

Yes, Phil, I have often wondered about your silence on the commentaries of Goran Tomic, such as the time this April he insulted my just-deceased father before he was cold in his grave. Only one of many examples I might mention. |

Chess One wrote: O come on Taylor! you have picked on Sam Sloan's bad language on this singular occasion and only noted the same of your usual supporters when their effusions are forcibly held under your nose! Phil, as usual you completely miss the point. Taylor, as usual, you talk about another point, or rather a blunted object, lacking any acuity. My target here is not so much Sloan as Parr. Your argument would be relevant if I had praised, say, Brock, Booz, or Houlsby for the gentlemanly restraint of their language compared to Sloan's. I have not, because their language has not been so restrained. No it would not. But I am cotent not to contend it more, ab ovo. Parr, on the other hand, has plainly said that Sloan "is to be admired in certain ways when compared with a Brock, Booz, Trollsby."

Parr so far has not told us what he admires about that statement. Parr has also said "Mr. Sloan's language is cleaner than that of most of his gutter critics." Well, it ain't, nor is his mind. Before we leave the track entirely, to follow your own tracts below, do you have no sense of your /own/ obsession with this subject? That /you/ actively seek out material against a person with whom you diasagreed, while ignoring more strident and indeed slimey material from people with whom you agree? This is not a subtle difference, except perhaps to bovine indifference. To wit: If Sam Sloan had not happened to challenge your rating and current playing skill would you be as anxious to find out and publish all his sins? Is that as good as an absolution for you? aeturnum servans sub pectore vulnus, said Vergel, on nursing an everlasting wound within the breast.

Innes--"to a philosopher, what one does is much more significant that
what one says one does" False distinction: one can of course do things with words (Austin's illocutionary and perlocutionary acts). This is a better attempt. But you move too quickly outward after an insight, whereas to persevere would reveal that to reflect on what one does is philosophy, and 'doing things' polity Indeed, on this very point Heidegger said that such speech without experience [by which he meant a bio-psychic engagement, beyond mere mentalisation, or as we would say 'head-tripping'] is nominated a 'pathic discourse', and is a form of madness It's simplistic to count f-bombs; it's more meaningful to examine why the f-bombs are being deployed. And it is brave to wonder about one's own interest, and much rarer. Good post. Phil |

Only one of many examples I might mention. You are lying down with dogs because of my silence over Goran Tomic's slighting comment? These are emotional topics. I will not pretend that these surface indicators are anything much of relevance to a person's complexity of motive, and only wonder why people here are acting as if this were untrue, like demented librarians counting the typo's in the book to assess its literary merit.

So I ask you to go out on a limb and to crudely generalize, Phil.
Given the request, no penalty for wrong answers from me, or from any onlookers. (How could you know what is by definition inaccessible to you?) But give it a whirl...it's rgcp. 1. Why do I drop the f-bomb (specifically: in the past couple weeks here)? 2. Why does Sloan drop the f-bomb in the various web pages cited by Kingston? |

Only one of many examples I might mention. Taylor, Tomic is the "Corky" of the English-speaking chess world; someone whose praise is worth even less than their criticism. While I imagine your father's death would render you particularly vulnerable, why ON EARTH would you let someone like him make even the slightest dent in your psyche? Just curious. Regards, Matt PS. BTW, getting into a ****ing-contest with someone who defended the likes of "Dr." Rolf Teuschen will only get you wet and stinky. |
