    Oh, sorry! I forgot my axiom about wasting metaphors on dropzone.com. Others will either get it or they won't. No bother to me. Carry on. First Class Citizen Twice Over

    If George Bush announced that divine marshmallows were roaming the White House basement rushmc would come online screaming that naysayers were just trying to short their Stay Puft stock. First Class Citizen Twice Over

    The level of economic innumeracy in this post boggles my mind. First Class Citizen Twice Over

    YAY! tcnelson is stalking me again. That always make dropzone.com so much more fun. I think there's a thread in the CRW forum you haven't chased me down and insulted me in yet. First Class Citizen Twice Over

    Let me get this straight... someone didn't like your behavior and told someone else instead of you. And now you don't like their behavior so you're telling us instead of them. Got it. First Class Citizen Twice Over

    How can you not realize that "nearly all" is compatible with "nearly all except Bob Carter." Let's also note that this piece by Bob Carter is a shrill political editorial, not a scientific position paper. Is he right? I have no idea, but this editorial sure doesn't add credibility to his position. First Class Citizen Twice Over

    Hey, if you're not that kind of right-winger then I wasn't talking about you. I'm sure there are exceptions... Surely there must be ... First Class Citizen Twice Over

    WOW! You should be proud of composing this excellent passage. Brilliant. First Class Citizen Twice Over

    The funny thing is the right-wing people who do this are the same ones who scream the word "FREEDOM" the loudest. What FREEDOM means to them is the freedom to outlaw anything they don't personally want to experience. First Class Citizen Twice Over

    Here's a hint for online survival: If you post a sarcastic response to something, consider yourself at a disadvantage. And you should never get frustrated with someone for not recognizing your unmarked sarcasm, especially if you're not well known for it. It really doesn't pay. First Class Citizen Twice Over

    I have an idea. Let's just stipulate that in conversations about population control "sterilize the surface" doesn't mean ... Oh, forget it. First Class Citizen Twice Over

    No sir. I know nothing about bikers. My comment was really exactly what I said. This article brings up bikers for the SOLE PURPOSE of instilling an unwarranted connection in the reader. I have no idea if there will be a connection or not. Maybe tomorrow we'll all learn it was bikers after all. Or maybe not. But meanwhile, everyone's walking around thinking "Bikers! Bikers! Damn murderous bikers!" because these articles carefully denied that bikers are suspects. Accidental innuendo? No... I seriously doubt it. First Class Citizen Twice Over

    I have an idea. Let's just stipulate that in conversations about population control "destroy the planet" doesn't mean explode the rock and send the fragments into deep space. It means sterilize the surface. That should save some time, ok? First Class Citizen Twice Over

    A smiley now and again is friendly and can even help the reader identify the mood of the writer, but you might consider rationing them somewhat for readability's sake. First Class Citizen Twice Over

    Bikers? The only reference to bikers is an editorial reminder that this county has some -- with absolutely no allusion to a connection to this event at all. They might as well have mentioned that the county has restaurants and libraries for all the relevance they show. Damn, I hate reporting like this! First Class Citizen Twice Over

    OH! It's was a paper written by SOMEONE. Why didn't you say so? Man, if I'd known SOMEONE wrote it I'd have taken it seriously. Why would anyone listen to the official report when you've got a paper written by someone that they've allowed you to read? You're very important, aren't you? First Class Citizen Twice Over

    I can see how you say that. You seem to be able to sense refutations fnord without reading them then convince yourself they don't exist. However for the rest of us the whole conspiracy theory revolves around the claim that the weather was sunny that day. But Kinaa, WHO LIVES THERE, said Hmm... sure looks like a definitive refutation of the most important "fact". First Class Citizen Twice Over

    Ooo! How sinister sounding. I'm wide-eyed with awe! Well, I've got a report right here. My report says that Al Franken was in his personal flying saucer urinating over the mountains from outer space. His urine vaporized in the heat of re-entry forming impassable clouds of steam which blinded the pilots and caused the crash. Only 5 ultra-top secret people have ever been allowed to read my report but since you're so cool and ominous I'll allow you to read it too. First Class Citizen Twice Over

    The meaning of someone's attraction depends on their appearance? So are you saying you would be ok if some three hundred fifty pound bald gay guy just pulled you by the back of your hair and planted one on you, and tried to slip you the tounge. That guy was lucky I didn't have my hibben on me. So are YOU saying you'd knife a fat guy who molested you but if a good looking guy molested you then you'd "think it would be a compliment"? You have very strange principles. First Class Citizen Twice Over

    Excellent move. Your guy is in trouble so distract, distract, distract. Personally I'd recommend pulling something a little more current... ten years old is a bit stale. But if that's the best you've got, use it. First Class Citizen Twice Over

    I have no idea if the two are comparable, but let's stipulate it for argument's sake. You ran in circles, screamed, and shouted when Clinton did it. But when Bush does it you can't make excuses fast enough for him. So stipulating they're the same thing as you suggest, the difference in your personal reaction shows that principle, justice, truth, and law have no place in your judgement. Not that anyone here thought otherwise, but it's nice to have such a clear demonstration. First Class Citizen Twice Over

    I know there are straight guys who brag about getting hit on by gay men. They must think it reinforces their social standing in some sense. First Class Citizen Twice Over
