Author	Topic: Get out the defib paddles
stat Member	posted 11-29-2007 03:43 PM This may just be the most desolate place on the web. Surprising.... as my business volume of tests would always nose-dive this time of year----giving me more goof-off time than usual. I suppose you cops are in full gear versus the privateers though. Does anyone else have major private/pcsot test volume drop-offs during the holiday season? For my old practice, it was a time of famine------every year. I would get 1 to 3 pitiful tests per week----and frequent no-shows and wierdos (usually rejected)from November 20th until January 15th or so when things would explode all over again.

Some therapists will require the SO pass a maintenance exam before they allow them to do a family activity. E - I see you are still keeping up the fight over at AP. Taylor IP: Logged

Bill2E Member	posted 11-29-2007 07:01 PM I have to laugh at the arguments presented by some of the anti folks. Nelson, I think you have the most of them pegged and somehow the ones posting for pro polygraph are very calm and mellow in statements, except Barry and 1904, those are really great Barry, keep it up, wish I could articulate without venom over there. Good work (and my spelling may be worse than my grammer, so don't go there) [This message has been edited by Bill2E (edited 11-29-2007).] IP: Logged
rnelson Member	posted 11-30-2007 10:04 AM Eric and Barry have done a great job presenting unrelenting and formidable argument. In the face of calm and reasonable logic, and factual information, the anti-bias becomes more plainly exposed as simple argument based primarily on appeal to emotion. Nopolyforme is showing his true colors as an anti-poly shill, with no real objectivity. and Sergeant1107 is reduced to an unscientific dolt who replaces logic and data with emotionally driven anectodtal experience. I would enjoy some real discussion, but its unsatisfying because it goes nowhere over there. (not that I won't continue to try occasionally.) It was actually more fun posting as Ludovico, and it was surprising how satisfying it was (it a really distorted way) to engage in simple aggression and sarcasm. r ------------------ "Gentlemen, you can't fight in here.
