I watched an interesting talk the other day about how to tell when people are lying, conducted by one of the world's most foremost experts in the field. One of the most fascinating tips was to watch how many times the person being evaluated uses the words "lie" OR "lying" OR "liar" to describe other people.
The more often they do, the more likely that the person doing this is is himself or herself a chronic liar. Number of FFL posts in which Judy has used one or more of those words: 2672. Try running that same search against other posters. *Any* other posters. --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, wrote: > > I think most understand why Barry is inveighing against a functional Search feature: if there's an accessible record of past posts, it's more difficult for him to lie with impunity > > Of course, catching Barry in his many, many, many lies is hardly the only use for Search on FFL and similar forums. He knows that, but he's happy to sacrifice all other uses in the interests of being able to lie without fear of rebuttal (especially about me, as he does in this post). Lying is his M.O., his way of being-in-the-world; if he can't lie, he feels exposed and defenseless. He's basically an inadequate human being who needs to be able to lie to bolster his fragile self-esteem.
