Can I take it then that you disapprove of the actions of the sign "correctors" and are prepared to dissociate yourself from them?

No, you can't


Can I also take it that these (more recent) incidents were a joke too?

I'll take them individually:-

Yes I do have a mini - a REAL one!
The metric signs were horrible cheap looking one. Besides anything else they could have made an effort in making good looking signs.

Note that I "take sides" with both the pro-imp and the pro-met side.
Recently "ARM" get things changed by mailing the "offender". I wanted to tell them about a rare "official looking" sign so they could write to them.

Hey don't knock it - I thought that that one was quite humorous!

Do you want to post more examples? They're hardly "paramilitary extremist" are they?



Or maybe this forum should dismiss your messages entirely as not being serious or worthy of response.

I have had many email 'one-to-ones' with a variety of posters to this USMA site. I've said it many times, to widespread agreement, that you cannot have a decent discussion if everyone says "yes" to each other. Where is the debate in that? People have repeatedly email me directly agreeing with that, some even posting such a response to this list server.

Do I get the idea that you don't like ideas that oppose to yours on this server?

What is wrong with debate with those who may have differing opinions to yourself?

As a pro-metric - the worse thing you can do is to suggest that an opposing opinion is a worthless opinion. You *need* to hear those opinions to form a valid argument to better your cause. To ignore it or try to push it out of existence does you no good.

It only got a bit nasty when "euric" posted there (he later became "Erin"). But just like this site he has now been banned.


(But I'm sure you'll already know that, and "all about me" from an email he sent you.)

He may have put me on the scent but the evidence speaks for itself.


He once described himself as a metric "extremist". This point of view of his is about the only one I've agreed with! May I make the assumption that you are comfortable with being associated with a self admitted metric "extremist" who has been banned from both the USMA site and the BWMA site?
