Quote: George, since you continue to insert yourself into the conversation between Gino and myself, and since Gino doesn't have the guts to answser withl the truth
Or, perhaps I didn’t happen to see your posts within the 6 or so hours that elapsed before you erroneously concluded that I lacked the fortitude to respond to you. Despite what you polygraphers may think, George and I don’t sit at home 24/7 at the screen in front of this Web site. We both have jobs, families, etc. This is a part-time venture, essentially a hobby.
The only lack of guts with regard to AntiPolygraph.org is on the part of the multitude of polygraph examiners who visit this site each day. Nearly 1000 days have passed since former FBI Supervisory Special Agent and polygraph examiner Dr. Drew C. Richardson posted his
Challenge to the Polygraph Community with respect to the claimed ability to detect countermeasures. Not a single person has stepped up to the mike in nearly three years. Now that’s what I call cowardice.
Quote: And didn't you write an article prior to that in which you took the completely oppositive side of countermeasures? Didn't you actually say they didn't work?
No. At no time did I ever write such an article. You are mistaken. As a person who makes a career determining truthfulness vs. deception on the basis of polygraph charts, I’m sure you are used to be wrong whether you know it or not.
Quote: And since you didn't dispute the fact that I also called it a purloined pile of shit, I guess we at least agree on that much.
Or, he neglected to dignify your comments with a response.
Quote: but first I want you to study what the word means and see if you can see any sign of it it your work.
1. To use and pass off (the ideas or writings of another) as one's own.
2. To appropriate for use as one's own passages or ideas from (another).
v. intr.
To put forth as original to oneself the ideas or words of another.
No, we don’t see any sign of plagiarism. So, since you are the one advancing this argument, please enlighten us. As George said,
Please point out any passage(s) of The Lie Behind the Lie Detector that you honestly believe to be plagiarized, along with the unacknowledged source upon which you believe such to be based. Put up, or shut up. The Lie Behind the Lie Detector is well-referenced. In the areas where we drew upon the prior work of others, we provided full text citations.
I’m not exactly sure what the definition is for plagiarism is in the diploma mills that a number of luminaries in the polygraph field appear to have gotten their degrees from. In accredited academic institutions, however, mentioning something that others have written before and properly citing a source is the bedrock of all non-fiction writing. It most certainly is not plagiarism.
So once again, back up your baseless claims or go pound sand.
