Seems to me you are being quite selective with the facts -- and with the history of this entire interchange. You are in fact cherry-picking facts, fella. And it is to _those_ sorts of typical responses which I am getting here, that I am in fact responding. So if I am _*responding*_ to something -- please keep that "something" fully in mind -- OK..? Same goes with my response to such as your ad hominem above, for that matter. And seeing as how some of you are so far to the Right (or at least intellectually unchallenged, politically-speaking, for an entire lifetime apparently), I doubt very much you would understand how I would PREFER that this stuff be on-the-record. AFAIC I am not the embarrassment here. And the record demonstrates what it demonstrates, doesn't it? That's real scientific-like, right..? > BTW, the introductory phrase you often use seem extremely unique to > me, i.e.: "As the smoke cleared, [insert poster's name here] mounted > the barricade and roared out:" It might be interesting to perform a > search on this phrase (or similar phrases) in order to unravel the > history of their prior use in other discussion groups.

You'll find some fella -- but that would only be because the local gatekeeper would be of your type. I get along just fine with reasonable, knowledgeable people, if you want to know. Big 'if', AFAIC. And when the barricades DO go up -- soon enuff, in spite of the suburban anglo insularity that seems to predominate here and which scoffs at the very idea -- you'll quickly change your mind on just how reasonable sort a person I am... I just don't suffer fools of many sorts -- like political, hypocritical, red-baiting ones -- gladly: a failing I freely admit-to. > My questions to you: Why are you here, Grok?

And let me point out -- again -- that I'm only responfing to some pretty dumb-ass Reichwing stuff being posted/passed along here. Frankly, I think my REAL crime is that I have not paid the 'price of admission' here.

The case of the late Alexander > Litvinenko, a Putin Critic who mysteriously died of radiation > poisoning obviously comes to mind: Not my opinion, fella. Fact. I stated a fact. I suppose I could dredge up the proof. But it would be years-old. And for that matter: the link below was the next thing I would've pointed out, if this conversation had continued on normally. However, it wasn't the incident I was referring to. > http://sweetness-light.com/archive/britain-says-putin-critic-died-of-radiation-poisoning > > SECOND OBSERVATION, AND FOLLOW-UP QUESTION: > > As for me, you made the observation that: > > > - From my POV, fella, when most people like you wax > > eloquent on politix -- maybe Science too, eh? -- > > you're just plain embarrassing.
