See George/Mark, this is exactly what I mean. I was having a discussion with the two of you, and Skeptic somehow found it necessary to horn in and offer the same kind of...what did you guys call it..."ad hominem" arguments.
Touche, if you want a private conversation on these boards you can send a direct message. You, on the other hand, have been posting publicly.
I'm sorry to burst your bubble, but if you post something on a public bulletin board, by convention it's pretty much fair gaime for anyone.
Quote:Skeptic: if it bothered you THAT much, the citation was there for all to obtain.
Unfortunately, it's not. The book appears to be out of print and not even available in my local University library (a fairly comprehensive source).
Furthermore, it's your evidence; present it! I simply have little wish to buy a used, out-of-print book through Amazon to read one passage.
Good Lord, man: if the evidence is "irrefutable" as you say, you should have no qualms presenting it here.
Quote:George couldn't get it because of HIS physical location and I suggested thatMark provide it for him. No offense Mark and George because I believe you read and understood my posting where I commented that given my physical location, I was unable to get my hands on the source for George's purposes. In time, I am sure you will get it and see to what I am referring. Mark, you are correct, it outlines a detailed use of the polygraph in WWII concerning the discovery of a Nazi spy. I just wanted you to read it completely, have an opportunity to check the sources and respond. Skeptic, mind your own business.
I'm sorry you felt your posts were visable only to George and/or Mark. If you post something publicly, however, you really have no reasonable expectation of a private conversation, and what you're posting is of potential interest to everyone here.
