Vince Hart wrote (9 May 2005
11:09:42 -0700): A typical Blairbot tactic: a vague allegation about "inappropriate" conduct followed by a refusal to explain. _ I wrote (9 May 2005 11:35:19 -0700): Vince Hart's summary leaves out the detail that I told him exactly where he could find the explanation that I have already provided. _ Vince Hart (10 May 2005 18:21:32 -0700): What could be more fair than a verbatim quote Louis? Isn't that the principle behind your copious quoting? _ I wrote (11 May 2005 11:42:57 -0700): Vince Hart did not put a verbatim quote after the words, _ "A typical Blairbot tactic: ..." _ What he did put after those words is quoted above along with my comment. _ Vince Hart wrote (11 May 2005 12:04:20 -0700): I did [not] claim that I put the verbatim quote after those words Louis. I put the verbatim quote immediately before those words you moronic twit. _ I wrote (11 May 2005 13:12:13 -0700): My opinion is that the words, _ "A typical Blairbot tactic: ..." _ should have been followed with a fair description of my tactic. _ Vince Hart wrote (13 May 2005 10:15:42 -0700): Since you failed to answer my question Louis, I must assume that you agree that a verbatim quote is a fair description of the tactic. This leaves you maintaining the inane position that I should have quoted your tactic, then commented upon it, and then quoted it again. _ I wrote (14 May 2005 10:28:00 -0700): Nonsense. I did not write that Vince Hart should have quoted my tactic again. I only wrote that, in my opinion, the words, _ "A typical Blairbot tactic: ..." _ should have been followed with a fair description of my tactic. A fair description would have been possible without repeating the quote. Vince Hart wrote (16 May 2005 06:31:49 -0700): Don't be silly Louis (or at least don't be any sillier than usual). Given the frequency with which you accuse me (and many others) of getting your positions wrong, there is no reason to believe that anything other than a verbatim quote would satisfy you as a fair description. _ Vince Hart may choose to believe that nothing other than a repetition of the quote would have satisfied me, but that is no excuse for him claiming that I have ever maintained the position that the quote should have been repeated. I have, in fact, not maintained that position and it is to be hoped that, in the future, Vince Hart will distinguish betweeen the positions that I have maintained and what he imagines that I want. |

I'm shocked that your software deleted the proper attribution for that "quote." I would suggest that you should recheck your configura- tion settings or possibly check into finding a better newsreader pro- gram. In point of fact, I (posting under the munged header-handle of "Fred Lucite") did not write that "quote." The "quote" above was in fact written by Tom Martinak and posted on Sunday, May 8 at 14:43 -700. That was clearly stated at the beginning of my citation but somehow your software deleted it. -- ---------------------------------------------- david moeser -- erasmus39 on yahoo Censornati, Ohio - USA ---------------------------------------------- * If you can read this, you're too close! * (Headers munged to foil spammers; real info in taglines) |
