Ok, I've now read thru the newest 5 pages and to Rufus and others who argue that engaging with posters like Jeb is giving them exactly what they yearn for, I don't disagree. However, as I said in my previous post, I actually enjoy the challenge of getting posters like Jeb to actually quiet down for awhile because I/we have actually put him in a box, if only for short time. I also genuinely enjoy getting in the mud with these people although, my goal in doing so is to keep my emotions in check while doing so. Thus, to be honest, I'm actually disappointed in myself for using the language I did last night or, showing the obvious emotion I showed. But hey, none of us are perfect and, failure is often the greatest teacher. I just wish I were as good at looking up articles/sources that clearly counter whatever a person like Jeb has posted the way Kep and many others here are at it.
I am guess you deleted something because I don’t see what you are referring to.
I am sorry, going on long rants like yesterday morning or this one doesn’t prove anything or put me “in a box.”
If you want to engage a particular topic or post by all means. I would say 75% of my posts are statistical measures or links to studies or reports. You are free to respond to those and provide information. But broad comments and generalizations don’t equate to much if anything.
