Frank was in the military (can earn you college credits) and it doesn't

For engineering? We're not talking about liberal arts here.

In fact, there are many who do it in less time. Many major universities

Name them. And also list what the student has to do in order to cram 4
years worth of work and study into "less than" 4 years.

A B.S. degree requires a certain amount of credits and certain
required courses. So either you have to take more classes in less
time, or you are somehow "getting around" certain required classes.
That starts to bring up Frank's earlier analogy of the "new" 2 year
Bachelor's degree, and how the "old" 4 year degree would be worth more
by virtue of more time spend in the classroom.

How does gay and lesbian marriage infringe on your rights?


It is not a matter of infringing on my "rights". It's matter of
tarnishing an institution that is based on religious practices. The
government has no right to do such. The only thing the government can
or should do is offer a civil union option, to provide gay couples the
same civil rights and responsibilities as straight couples when
dealing with secular issues.

You, a big advocate for separation of church and state, should
understand where the line is drawn here. If you advocate that church

I have no problem with secular civil unions. I have a big problem with

Heck, you can earn a college "degree" these days without ever setting
a foot in a classroom.



Sure. Just send a few bucks to a PO box listed in an advertisement in
the back of Rolling Stone magazine.


But 20 years ago, that just wasn't the case.
You had a certain amount of credits that you had to earn, and a
required course curriculum. Yes, it was possible to do it in less than
four years, but that required an overly ambitious fast-paced schedule.
Most people are not up for that.



It depends on the person. For some people, three hours a day in the
lecture halls is mindbogglingly slow. For others the challenge is
overwhelming. The trick is to choose classes each quarter/semester
that make the most efficient use of study time required -outside- the
classroom. And not to waste your time at keggers.

Also, some colleges and most Universities offer equivalency tests as
well as credits for prior experience directly related to the field. I
cut down my time by almost a full year by testing out of first-year
electricity courses, math all the way through calculus, and was given
credits for being a radio tech in the USMC.


Night school allowed people to avoid many of the "nonsense" courses,
which were unrelated to your major, that the full time day programs
usually required you to take.



Those "nonsense" courses have very legitimate purposes. Suppose your
major is electrical engineering. You need to study economics so you
can do a cost/benefit analysis for a design project, as well as be
able to run a business if the opportunity arises. For the same reason
it's a good idea to study a little business law and accounting. There
is no substitute for good communication skills, -especially- English
composition, and because my objective required strong communication
skills I decided to minor in the field. Along the same lines, a few
courses in humanities and history are also a very good idea since a
lot of current events either revolve around cultural differences and
issues, or require some understanding of the history surrounding the
events. Etc, etc, etc. You pick any course required for a BS and I'll
explain how and why it's related to your field of study.

Or is it that you don't like the idea of a liberal education because
it's 'liberal'?


But the people who took the night school
route usually were, like me, working full time during the day, and
could not take as many courses per semester and, consequently, it
could take close to 8 years to earn the B.S.



If that's the way they choose to do it then that's their choice. I
worked my way through college while working at night -- bartending.

The history of the earth's climate is well documented back to the
begining of the earth's creation...grammar school basic earth and
science taught this. Carbon dating confirms much and plays a large part
of the techniques used to arrive at such widely accepted and mainstream
taught scientific facts.


Again, we know what the climate was, but not conclusively how it got
that way. There are many good theories, but that's all they are.


Like I told Frank, science can tell us that, for
instance, it was once tropical in Montana, and
that Glaciers covered much of the northern
United States during different time periods.
This proves that the earth's climate has
vacillated in a fairly wide range. But what this
DOESN'T tell us is how much of the current
global warming cycle can be attributed to
natural cyclic climatic changes, and how much
of it is a direct result of man made pollution.


Sure it can, and does. The amount of many chemical releases in the
atmosphere are man made. Many are not man made.



Exactly, which is why it is extremely difficult to make a positive
determination as to the percentage of man's contribution to the total
amount of global warming.


Some are both. However,
science has methods of measuring each,,including natural occurring vs.
manmade chemicals,,,such as methane gases.


Yes, and that "science" is in much dispute right now as there are many
scientists who do not accept the findings of others as conclusive.
There are still many assumptions being made.


Without a point of reference, it is extremely
difficult to positively determine how much we
are changing the climate.


The point of reference is the richness/ concentration of the gas.


Which we cannot positively ascertain because we do not know how much
of that gas truly came as a result of man-made pollution versus that
which is naturally occurring. One large volcano eruption, for
instance, can drastically effect the concentration of methane gasses
in the atmosphere.


An
example can be the amount of methane in a predetermined air sample.
Higher concentrations of the gas can be attributed to manmade releases
and emissions.


Or a volcano eruption. Methane gas does not have a "tag" which says
"man made" or natural. We can only measure the total concentration.


It's elementary for anyone with a fair retainment value
that took college science classes.


Since you called it "elementary", it's obvious that you've never
studied it, as it is far too complex a process to be called
"elementary". By attempting to make this issue simpler than it really
is, you also disparage the scientists who do this for a living.


Chloroflourocarbons released by the burning of fossil fuels is directly
linked to global warming.


No argument. But you can't positively determine the rate of global
warming that might still be occurring if we suddenly stopped using
fossil fuels today.


Global warming was proved by the continual shrinkage of the polar ice
cap confirmed by 24-7 high tech monitoring of such. Villages that reside
in the frozen tundra watch their mountains of ice shrink each year.

How much of that shrinkage would still be
occurring without man made pollution?


As you referred, the climate is thought to adhere to cycles, When the
cycles suddenly deviate substantially from the norm, it's dedeucedly


dedeucedly? Do you mean deductively? And you chastise MY vocabulary
and grammar.......


decided and accepted that something is amiss.


First of all, there is no "norm" when it comes to climatic shifts.
Many of those shifts occurred as the direct result of an external
random event, such as the asteroid strike which is generally the
current accepted theory for precipitating the extinction of the
dinosaurs at the end of the Cretaceous period. There are other craters
all over the planet, as evidence of other such strikes. There is also
evidence of large volcano eruptions, which can spew enough particulate
matter into the atmosphere, that an "ice age" would likely result. The
climatic shifts which occur between these significant events is likely
only the result of climatic balance or a normalization from the
extremes caused by the random external events. It's also conceivable
that over the last billion years, that the solar energy output from
the sun could have deviated to some degree as well, which can
certainly affect surface temperature here.

We may still be "recovering" from the last ice age, as early evidence
shows that this planet was a great deal warmer millions of years ago.


When the glaciers continue
shrinking at an alarming rate that deviates from the projected models of
which you referred predictable climatic cycles


There have been more than a few major volcano eruptions in the last 25
years, which may play a role in this.


, and the amount of junk
released in the air we KNOW has increased,..it's widely accepted by even
the republicans at this point. Do you even know what your own party says
on this issue now, Dave? You appear to be aruing with -them-.


This is science, not politics. I'm arguing that we don't definitively
know the relative effects of man's pollution on the total amount of
global warming because there are still too many variables to make a
responsible conclusion.

You also failed to address the other side of the coin. Not only is
man's pollution a factor, but the gradual deforesting, by land
developers, can have a profound effect on the amount of CO2 in the air
(A major greenhouse gas)

_
You take issue with those free-thinkers and it moves you toward the
goblin that you are unable to cast out and exercise of yourself.


I have nothing against "free thinkers" (I am one), but I have a
problem with reckless thinking, and drawing alarmist conclusions when
all of the facts are not yet known.


Once again, you don't get it (Why should I be
surprised?).


You won't be, because you continue to be on the defensive of everyone
that corrects you.


It's not my problem that you are wrong in most cases (The roger beep
issue notwithstanding)


You find fault with all of them.


"Them", consists of you, and now recently, Frank.

It's not us, Dave, it's you.


Yet you've failed to prove me wrong in virtually every dispute that
we've had.


It's apparent it is glaringly painful when you are wrong and
corrected, but dammit, man, its not personal.


It takes more than simply stating your opposing opinion and the citing
of a mythical "majority" support group, that you, as a freelance
fishing rag contributor, claim to have the inside track with to prove
me wrong. Where are your facts?

Simply claiming that "the majority disagrees with you" is meaningless,
without corroborating proof.


You want to get rid of what you refer to as
"poorly crafted laws"? Then great! Go for it!



No,,I love the laws and the manner in whcih they are enforced.


You'd rather break the law. Socially irresponsible.

They keep
dicks like you off the freeband and allow the rest of us to play
carefree and unfettered from you being reactive (oposed to proactive)
from the confines of your own home, much as you do on the internet. It's
yourself that has messed all over yourself time and again whining about
the lack of enforcement.


Yea, silly me, for wishing that more people would accept more personal
responsibility and understand their societal obligations, in the same
way that their grandparents did.


You have my support. But until then, you are
bound to respect and obey the current laws as
they stand.



Regarding this law and dx, I discriminately and selectively invoke Civil
Disobedience.


A lame excuse from a simple scofflaw who narcissistically places their
own idea of self worth above the value of society itself.

Because you have difficulty comprehending the definitions
of words these days, you may seek to "quantify",,,er,,,qualify it.
Sorry,,,couldn't resist.


That's ok, I would never have "deduecedy" figured that out without

That was -your- analogy, Dave. And it's irrelevant to this discussion
since the concept of a "2 year degree" was to offer a BS after
completing only half the current academic requirements. This topic
deals with completing the current academic requirements in different
amounts of time.


and how the "old" 4 year degree would be worth more
by virtue of more time spend in the classroom.



Not "time", Dave -- the amount that is learned. If you really need an
analogy, just look at the requirements for an Extra-class ham license.
The code test is down to 5 wpm, which more than a few hams feel has
"diminished the value" of their license. You used the "2 year degree"
analogy as an argument against gay marriage when you -should- be using
it as an argument against dropping the code requirement. But I don't
hear you screaming about that at all.

Regardless, if a person can complete a 4 year BS program in 2 years,
more power to him. But that's not the same as cutting the cirriculum
in half in order to reduce a 4 year program to only 2 years. That's
the same as dumbing down the course..... in fact, it's not just the
-same- as dumbing down the course, it -IS- dumbing down the course.

I agree, the government should not impose upon any religion. How does
gay marriage impose government upon religion?

I see your point, Dave. But what you refuse to accept is that marriage
is not exclusive to religion. It may have been formally defined under
religion, but I wasn't there so I don't know for sure. Regardless, the
concept of marriage is not only secular but universal. And as I have
pointed out several times before, the Christian definition of marriage
is, at best, poorly defined.


I have no problem with secular civil unions. I have a big problem with
gay marriages.



You don't want homosexuals to be able to walk down the same street
that you do. You are a bigot.

Stop assuming, but since you did, I will lay odds years working in the

Philly is the scumbag capital of the country. They have nothing to be
proud of in the last twenty five years. Jobs, crime, housing,

even half decent in that area, and even that is a joke when all is taken
in to consideration.

The history of the earth's climate is well documented back to the
begining of the earth's creation...grammar school basic earth and

Again, we know what the climate was, but not


conclusively how it got that way.



It's called weather. Weather coupled with other events.

There are


many good theories, but that's all they are.



Changing the topic from one of you learning how global warming is
defined, studied, and confirmed to another serves only to solidify your
pain in ebing incorrect.

Like I told Frank, science can tell us that, for


instance, it was once tropical in Montana, and


that Glaciers covered much of the northern


United States during different time periods.


This proves that the earth's climate has


vacillated in a fairly wide range. But what this


DOESN'T tell us is how much of the current


global warming cycle can be attributed to


natural cyclic climatic changes, and how much
of it is a direct result of man made pollution.


Sure it can, and does. The amount of many chemical releases in the
atmosphere are man made. Many are not man made.

Exactly, which is why it is extremely difficult to


make a positive determination as to the


percentage of man's contribution to the total


amount of global warming.



It's not difficult at all. I just taught you that the concentration of
such gases, such as methane gas, is but a single method by which is
measured.
Some are both. However,
science has methods of measuring
each,,including natural occurring vs. manmade chemicals,,,such as
methane gases.

Yes, and that "science" is in much dispute


right now as there are many scientists who do


not accept the findings of others as


conclusive. There are still many assumptions


being made.



Not regarding global warming. Twenty years ago, yes..today, it is widely
accepted and taught mainstream.

Without a point of reference, it is extremely


difficult to positively determine how much we


are changing the climate.


The point of reference is the richness/ concentration of the gas.

Which we cannot positively ascertain because


we do not know how much of that gas truly


came as a result of man-made pollution



versus that which is naturally occurring.



But we do.

One large volcano eruption, for instance, can


drastically effect the concentration of methane


.gasses in the atmosphere.



Yes, but it does not dilute or enrich what is already there, it simply
adds quantity to one or the other. Such an example is very easily taken
into consideration and calculations allow for the exact molecular
configuration when determining such factors. This is done by the precise
and absolute measuremtn of related contributions, such as time of
eruption, length of eruption, velocity of eruption, etc., etc.

_
An
example can be the amount of methane in a predetermined air sample.
Higher concentrations of the gas can be attributed to manmade releases
and emissions.

Or a volcano eruption. Methane gas does not


have a "tag" which says "man made" or


natural.


We can only measure the total concentration.

=A0

Which is the exact manner in which to tell man-made from natural.
=A0It's elementary for anyone with a fair retainment value that took
college science classes.

Since you called it "elementary", it's obvious


that you've never studied it, as it is far too


complex a process to be called "elementary".


Umm,,no. Go back and reread just what I called "elementary"... not what
you felt the need to misrepresent here.

By attempting to make this issue simpler than


it really is, you also disparage the scientists


who do this for a living.


It is very simple for anyone who has ever taken college science classes,
but gases are introduced in elementary school science.
_
Chloroflourocarbons released by the burning of fossil fuels is directly
linked to global warming.

No argument. But you can't positively


determine the rate of global warming that


might still be occurring if we suddenly stopped
using fossil fuels today.



Sure you can. One measures the rate of speed the studied glaciers melt.
If they suddenly stopped melting and began growing, the figured
equations and calculations are all that's left to give you the answer
you seek.
Global warming was proved by the continual shrinkage of the polar ice
cap confirmed by 24-7 high tech monitoring of such. Villages that reside
in the frozen tundra watch their mountains of ice shrink each year.

How much of that shrinkage would still be


occurring without man made pollution?


As you referred, the climate is thought to adhere to cycles, When the
cycles suddenly deviate substantially from the norm, it's dedeucedly

dedeucedly? Do you mean deductively?


Ha,,no I meant "deucedly", as in wickedly confirmed. I was watching the
penguin on the Dudley Doright cartoons and my fingers did their own
thing..

And


you chastise MY vocabulary and grammar.......


Huge difference. I admit my mistakes whereas you scream bloody murder or
try to ignore yours because of the pain they cause you.

_
decided and accepted that something is
amiss.

First of all, there is no "norm" when it comes to


clim`atic shifts.




When "deviation from the norm" is used in such a reference, it means
deviation from the usual patterns. -You- were first to claim weather
patterns in his topic, now you again, self-contradict yourself.

Many of those shifts occurred as the direct


result of an external random event, such as


the asteroid strike which is generally the


current accepted theory for precipitating the


extinction of the dinosaurs at the end of the


Cretaceous period.



Not any more. Perhaps when you were i grammar school, but the most
compelling andgenerally accepted theory now is they simply died out. The
meteor that caused the ice age that was originally thought to have
brought about the extinction of such creatures is now believed to have
occured many, many years after the dinosaurs have already become
extinct.

There are other craters all over the planet, as


evidence of other such strikes.


Yea,,and if you ever were west of the Mississippi, you would have
undoubtedly had the chance to see one.

There is also


evidence of large volcano eruptions,



..in 'patterns' of eras of high activity.

which


can spew enough particulate matter into the


atmosphere, that an "ice age" would likely


result.



And did.

The climatic shifts which occur between


these significant events is likely only the result
of climatic balance or a normalization from the
extremes caused by the random external


events. It's also conceivable that over the last


billion years, that the solar energy output from


the sun could have deviated to some degree


as well, which can certainly affect surface


temperature here.




It's not conceivable, it's been proved the sun's harmful rays have
intensified over time. This is because of the damage in the ozone layer.
This is called global warming.
Again, you come full circle. My work on this topic is done.

A totally different issue. One single gay couple in San Fran, is a

what concerns me and most Americans.

I was simply
not aware for what you were referring.


Your "Jim West" is a scumbag, plain and simple. Being a republican

That's it? That's all you have to say about the subject?


What do you want me to say?


No diatribe

Why should it? It's not the whole institution of mayor's which is at
the heart of the issue. It's simply one person's sick, perverted
behavior.


No sermon
on how his sexual perversions are a moral abomination?


I would think you'd already know that. If my assumption was wrong
then, I apologize.


Instead you
refer to his homosexuality and pedophilia as "human flaws" when you
have consistently referred to such behavior in much stronger language?


How much stronger than "scumbag" do you want me to go? I'd like to
keep this at a "PG" level.


Hey, it's not like I'm suprised -- it's ok to call Kerry a criminal
when there has been no trial; but Bush, who was tried and convicted of
a DUI, is guilty of nothing more than a "civil infraction".


I'm sorry if the truth bothers you. Bush's conviction was for a motor
vehicle violation at that time. Not a criminal offense. Despite the
fact that Kerry never saw a courtroom for his perjurious and arguably
treasonous behavior, his actions are still contemptible.


And all
the while it was -you- that said that anyone who breaks the law is a
criminal. So instead of condemning people in your own camp with your
own standards, you simply use softer words. How nice.


You really need to get over yourself Frank. You spend far too much
time analyzing my words, and attempting to imply meanings which are
not there.


Liberal pedophile: guilty of a moral sin.
Conservative pedophile: victim of a human flaw.


All pedophiles are guilty of moral sins, which happens to be a human

Give me one good reason why I should tell you.



Because if you don't then your claim has no credibility, and I will be
reiterating that fact for as long as you post in this group.


Then neither do any of yours for, as Twisty is so fond of pointing
out, USENET is an anonymous service. Very little about anyone is
verifiable. Being a ham puts me at somewhat of a disadvantage, as my
name and address can be obtained from my call sign. But any personal
information beyond that is revealed by personal choice at your own
risk. As long as guys like Twisty can be a continual disruption and
can safely hide from the consequences behind his cloak of anonymity, I
feel no obligation to provide any more of my personal information,
just to satiate your credibility issues. Remembering what happened to
Dennis O, when his place of employment was found out, is further
incentive for me to remain quiet about those aspects of my personal
life.

If you can't handle that, Tough.


Who does the majority party represent if not the majority?


Is this a loaded question?



Not at all. Bush and the Republicans ignored the voices of the vast
majority of Americans when they tried to meddle in the Shiavo case. If
they were not acting on behalf of the majority of Americans then what
was their motive? IOW, who does the majority party represent if not
the majority?


Principles, Character, Morality. Most of which the majority posses and
agree with.


Where does the Constitution require, or
even suggest, that religious influence should play any role in the
government?


Where does the Constitution require or even suggest that religious
influences should NOT play any role in the government?



You claimed that the Constitution included words that defined this
country to be a Christian state. Where does it say anything of the
sort?


I never made any such claim. But I'm sure you've misinterpreted one of
my past statements and think I said it.

I did say that the constitution was written by religious, God
respecting people, most of whom were Christian.

How does gay and lesbian marriage infringe on your rights?


It is not a matter of infringing on my "rights".



That's absolutely correct, Dave.


Of course it is, I said it.


It's matter of
tarnishing an institution that is based on religious practices.



Which has absolutely nothing to do with the government or the
Constitution.


The
government has no right to do such.



The government cannot prevent people from practicing their religion as
they see fit, even if their religion includes a definition of marriage
that's different than your's.


The only thing the government can
or should do is offer a civil union option, to provide gay couples the
same civil rights and responsibilities as straight couples when
dealing with secular issues.



You can call it a "civil union" if you want. They can call it a
"marriage" if -they- want. That's -their- right. It's not -your- right
to prevent them from exercising -their- rights.


From a secular point of view, they have the right to live in sin, but
no true Christian church would recognize such a union. And any
institution that would, cheapens and tarnishes that institution.


You, a big advocate for separation of church and state, should
understand where the line is drawn here. If you advocate that church
doctrine should not be infused into the workings of the government,
then the converse is also true. Otherwise you are practicing
hypocrisy.



I agree, the government should not impose upon any religion. How does
gay marriage impose government upon religion?


By forcing universal recognition of gay marriages as legitimate, which
they are not in the eyes of God.


I see your point, Dave. But what you refuse to accept is that marriage
is not exclusive to religion.


But it started there.


It may have been formally defined under
religion, but I wasn't there so I don't know for sure. Regardless, the
concept of marriage is not only secular but universal.


By necessity, not by choice. And the secular definition of marriage
simply adopted the religious definition of marriage in order to define
the civil rights that married couples would gain. Creating a new
definition of marriage, that is not endorsed by the church, is not
acceptable.

Think of it as similar to a copyrighted trademark. The church has
"licensed" the term "marriage" to the government to use for civil
purposes, as long as they abide by the terms of the license. Unless
the church decides to condone a gay union (Not likely), then the
government has no right to apply the term "marriage" to a secular gay
union.

Like I said before, I have no problem with the government creating a
gay civil union, with the same civil rights and responsibilities given
to married couples, just don't call it marriage.

And as I have
pointed out several times before, the Christian definition of marriage
is, at best, poorly defined.


But it has been widely accepted in this country for hundreds of years.
Marriage is only recognized in the secular arena, due to the
additional legal rights and responsibilities that couples get. Before
the complexities of secular society necessitated such civil
recognition of marriage, the only thing a couple needed to do was have
the marriage blessed before God at a church service. That was all
that was necessary to legitimize a marriage.


I have no problem with secular civil unions. I have a big problem with
gay marriages.



You don't want homosexuals to be able to walk down the same street
that you do. You are a bigot.



Ah, you're back to making unfounded speculative assumptions and then
drawing an erroneous conclusion based on those unfounded speculations.
That's yet another example of your poor logic. You never could stick
to the facts Frank. But your liberal demonization tactic doesn't work
on me Frank. Labeling me will not change the very real legitimacy of
the issue.

Because those "flaws" were largely invented by the left leaning media.
There has been none to date which have been proven. Rathergate, is a
glaring example of one such smear which got discovered before any real
damage could be done. Then there is the more recent Newsweek gaffe
about flushing the Koran down a toilet (How does one flush a book down
a toilet anyway?). Did you know that the gutless clowns at Newsweek
had the nerve to actually blame the repercussions of their erroneous
reporting on the Bush administration, for not denying it quickly
enough? They print a lie, and they blame Bush for not denying it, as

Heck, you can earn a college "degree" these days without ever setting
a foot in a classroom.



Sure. Just send a few bucks to a PO box listed in an advertisement in
the back of Rolling Stone magazine.


But 20 years ago, that just wasn't the case.
You had a certain amount of credits that you had to earn, and a
required course curriculum. Yes, it was possible to do it in less than
four years, but that required an overly ambitious fast-paced schedule.
Most people are not up for that.



It depends on the person. For some people, three hours a day in the
lecture halls is mindbogglingly slow. For others the challenge is
overwhelming. The trick is to choose classes each quarter/semester
that make the most efficient use of study time required -outside- the
classroom. And not to waste your time at keggers.


It should be that simple. But you forgot to consider, that not all
courses are offered each semester, pretty much forcing you to do
things "their way". Trying to transfer credits from other schools was
also sometimes problematic. Sometimes they would refuse to give
credit, other times they would only give partial credit. Colleges are
somewhat competitive, and have no incentive to have students give
another school money, and then accept that as credit in their school.
At least that's the way it was 20+ years ago.


Also, some colleges and most Universities offer equivalency tests as
well as credits for prior experience directly related to the field. I
cut down my time by almost a full year by testing out of first-year
electricity courses, math all the way through calculus, and was given
credits for being a radio tech in the USMC.


Yes, I am aware of "testing out" I did similar things, with my
previous tech school credits.


Night school allowed people to avoid many of the "nonsense" courses,
which were unrelated to your major, that the full time day programs
usually required you to take.



Those "nonsense" courses have very legitimate purposes.


Really? I don't think you understand what I refer to as "nonsense".


Suppose your
major is electrical engineering. You need to study economics so you
can do a cost/benefit analysis for a design project, as well as be
able to run a business if the opportunity arises. For the same reason
it's a good idea to study a little business law and accounting. There
is no substitute for good communication skills, -especially- English
composition, and because my objective required strong communication
skills I decided to minor in the field. Along the same lines, a few
courses in humanities and history are also a very good idea since a
lot of current events either revolve around cultural differences and
issues, or require some understanding of the history surrounding the
events. Etc, etc, etc. You pick any course required for a BS and I'll
explain how and why it's related to your field of study.


Ok, then explain to me the necessity of phys-ed courses? Those are the
ones that I was referring to as "nonsense". The examples you gave
above I totally agree with. It's interesting that you'd think I was
referring to them as "nonsense".


Or is it that you don't like the idea of a liberal education because
it's 'liberal'?


A liberal Arts degree is basically useless if making serious money is
one of your goals. Seen on a bumper sticker: "I have a Liberal Arts
degree, Do you want fries with that?"_

So the behavior is seperate from the office?


No sermon
on how his sexual perversions are a moral abomination?


I would think you'd already know that. If my assumption was wrong
then, I apologize.


Instead you
refer to his homosexuality and pedophilia as "human flaws" when you
have consistently referred to such behavior in much stronger language?


How much stronger than "scumbag" do you want me to go? I'd like to
keep this at a "PG" level.


Hey, it's not like I'm suprised -- it's ok to call Kerry a criminal
when there has been no trial; but Bush, who was tried and convicted of
a DUI, is guilty of nothing more than a "civil infraction".


I'm sorry if the truth bothers you. Bush's conviction was for a motor
vehicle violation at that time. Not a criminal offense. Despite the
fact that Kerry never saw a courtroom for his perjurious and arguably
treasonous behavior, his actions are still contemptible.


And all
the while it was -you- that said that anyone who breaks the law is a
criminal. So instead of condemning people in your own camp with your
own standards, you simply use softer words. How nice.


You really need to get over yourself Frank. You spend far too much
time analyzing my words, and attempting to imply meanings which are
not there.



You can complain about how I "analyze" your words all you want, but
the fact remains that you change their definitions and context when
forced to defend yourself against your own words.


Liberal pedophile: guilty of a moral sin.
Conservative pedophile: victim of a human flaw.


All pedophiles are guilty of moral sins, which happens to be a human
flaw.



Then why do you refer to a homosexuality as immoral, yet a homosexual
that is a conservative Republican merely has "human flaws"? This has
to do with the strength of your wording, Dave. You use strong words
when addressing people you despise, but much softer words when
describing bad behavior of people you favor. This isn't a recent
observation, Dave -- it's one of the common characteristics of your
postings for a very long time. And it's very hypocritical.


You're a trip, Dave.


No, your interpretations are.


snip
All I can say is that I sure wish I had the tools of the internet and
computers back when I had to do term papers. The task would have been
much less tedious and actually somewhat interesting, and fun.


Where did you go to college, Dave? And BTW, what was the name of that
tech school you claimed to have attended?

Give me one good reason why I should tell you.



Because if you don't then your claim has no credibility, and I will be
reiterating that fact for as long as you post in this group.


Then neither do any of yours for, as Twisty is so fond of pointing
out, USENET is an anonymous service. Very little about anyone is
verifiable. Being a ham puts me at somewhat of a disadvantage, as my
name and address can be obtained from my call sign. But any personal
information beyond that is revealed by personal choice at your own
risk. As long as guys like Twisty can be a continual disruption and
can safely hide from the consequences behind his cloak of anonymity, I
feel no obligation to provide any more of my personal information,
just to satiate your credibility issues. Remembering what happened to
Dennis O, when his place of employment was found out, is further
incentive for me to remain quiet about those aspects of my personal
life.

If you can't handle that, Tough.



How would a simple call to the administration of this alleged academic
institution to verify your attendance get you fired from your present
job? Or did you get your job by lying on your resume like you lie in
this newsgroup?

You never attended any sort of post-graduate education, Dave. You
probably took a high-school shop class and glorified it with your
imagination.


Who does the majority party represent if not the majority?

Is this a loaded question?



Not at all. Bush and the Republicans ignored the voices of the vast
majority of Americans when they tried to meddle in the Shiavo case. If
they were not acting on behalf of the majority of Americans then what
was their motive? IOW, who does the majority party represent if not
the majority?


Principles, Character, Morality. Most of which the majority posses and
agree with.



Apparently not, since the majority didn't agree with the "principles,
character, morality" that the Republicans attempted to impose. So who
does the majority party represent if not the majority? And why are you
having such a difficult time answering such a simple question?


Where does the Constitution require, or
even suggest, that religious influence should play any role in the
government?

Where does the Constitution require or even suggest that religious
influences should NOT play any role in the government?



You claimed that the Constitution included words that defined this
country to be a Christian state. Where does it say anything of the
sort?


I never made any such claim. But I'm sure you've misinterpreted one of
my past statements and think I said it.



You most certainly did make that claim, and more than once:

"The constitution is relative as well. It was framed by Christian
people with their religious inspired morality contained within its
wording."

"A nation founded by Christian people based on Christian doctrine,
even if the 1st amendment decries that there is no 'official' state
sponsored religion."

"You who claim to support the constitution and the wisdom of our
forefathers (who were all religious people), yet now advocate that we
go above and beyond the definitions called for in the constitution..."

Need more examples?


I did say that the constitution was written by religious, God
respecting people, most of whom were Christian.



No, you said they were -all- Christians. Need a quote there too?


How does gay and lesbian marriage infringe on your rights?

It is not a matter of infringing on my "rights".



That's absolutely correct, Dave.


Of course it is, I said it.


It's matter of
tarnishing an institution that is based on religious practices.



Which has absolutely nothing to do with the government or the
Constitution.


The
government has no right to do such.



The government cannot prevent people from practicing their religion as
they see fit, even if their religion includes a definition of marriage
that's different than your's.


The only thing the government can
or should do is offer a civil union option, to provide gay couples the
same civil rights and responsibilities as straight couples when
dealing with secular issues.



You can call it a "civil union" if you want. They can call it a
"marriage" if -they- want. That's -their- right. It's not -your- right
to prevent them from exercising -their- rights.


From a secular point of view, they have the right to live in sin, but
no true Christian church would recognize such a union.



And the law doesn't require them to do anything of the sort. It only
requires that you respect their -legal- rights. And if they choose to
exercise their right to freedom of expression by calling their "civil
union" a marriage, or if their religion formally recognizes homosexual
marriage, then you have no right to prevent them from exercising their
rights. It's a very simple concept, Dave. Why is it so hard for you to
understand?


And any
institution that would, cheapens and tarnishes that institution.



Then that's the choice of the institution, not the government.


You, a big advocate for separation of church and state, should
understand where the line is drawn here. If you advocate that church
doctrine should not be infused into the workings of the government,
then the converse is also true. Otherwise you are practicing
hypocrisy.



I agree, the government should not impose upon any religion. How does
gay marriage impose government upon religion?


By forcing universal recognition of gay marriages as legitimate, which
they are not in the eyes of God.



Where, in the Constitution, does it require that any law must be
viewed as legitimate in the eyes of God? And even if it did, who
exactly would make that determination? God's legal representative?


I see your point, Dave. But what you refuse to accept is that marriage
is not exclusive to religion.


But it started there.



So? Christmas and Easter originated with Christianity but eventually
merged with pagan festivals. Why aren't you bitching about that? The
Sabbath is on Saturday but the Christians worship it on Sundays,
despite the first of the Ten Commandments. Why aren't you bitching
about that? The Bible embraces slavery, but it's now illegal in the
US. Why aren't you bitching about that?

You aren't bitching about those things because you are only concerned
with homosexuality. You are a bigot, Dave. And a hypocrite.


It may have been formally defined under
religion, but I wasn't there so I don't know for sure. Regardless, the
concept of marriage is not only secular but universal.


By necessity, not by choice. And the secular definition of marriage
simply adopted the religious definition of marriage in order to define
the civil rights that married couples would gain. Creating a new
definition of marriage, that is not endorsed by the church, is not
acceptable.



Yet it already exists, like it or not.


Think of it as similar to a copyrighted trademark. The church has
"licensed" the term "marriage" to the government to use for civil
purposes, as long as they abide by the terms of the license. Unless
the church decides to condone a gay union (Not likely), then the
government has no right to apply the term "marriage" to a secular gay
union.



The church has a "copyright" on marriage? ROTFLMMFAO!!! Dave, marriage
outside the sphere of religion has been socially recognized for many,
many centuries -- perhaps even longer than religion!


Like I said before, I have no problem with the government creating a
gay civil union, with the same civil rights and responsibilities given
to married couples, just don't call it marriage.



That's not your choice. Deal with it.


And as I have
pointed out several times before, the Christian definition of marriage
is, at best, poorly defined.


But it has been widely accepted in this country for hundreds of years.
Marriage is only recognized in the secular arena, due to the
additional legal rights and responsibilities that couples get. Before
the complexities of secular society necessitated such civil
recognition of marriage, the only thing a couple needed to do was have
the marriage blessed before God at a church service. That was all
that was necessary to legitimize a marriage.



Times change, Dave. You can either change with the times or spend the
rest of your life in a bitter depression.


I have no problem with secular civil unions. I have a big problem with
gay marriages.



You don't want homosexuals to be able to walk down the same street
that you do. You are a bigot.



Ah, you're back to making unfounded speculative assumptions and then
drawing an erroneous conclusion based on those unfounded speculations.
That's yet another example of your poor logic. You never could stick
to the facts Frank. But your liberal demonization tactic doesn't work
on me Frank. Labeling me will not change the very real legitimacy of
the issue.



Why not? You slap the "liberal" label on me all the time.

THE WORLD
As Climate Shifts, Antarctic Ice Sheet Is Growing
Increased snowfall on the central icecap partly offsets effects of
melting glaciers, researchers say.
By Robert Lee Hotz, Times Staff Writer
As glaciers from Greenland to Kilimanjaro recede at record rates, the
central icecap of Antarctica has been steadily growing for 11 years,
partially offsetting the rise in seas from the melt waters of global
warming, researchers said Thursday.
The vast East Antarctic Ice Sheet =97 a 2-mile-thick wasteland larger
than Australia, drier than the Sahara and as cold as a Martian spring
=97 increased in mass every year from 1992 to 2003 because of additional
annual snowfall, an analysis of satellite radar measurements showed.
"It is an effect that has been predicted as a likely result of climate
change," said David Vaughan, an independent expert on the ice sheets at
the British Antarctic Survey in Cambridge, England.
In a region known for the lowest temperatures recorded on Earth, it
normally is too cold for snow to form across the 2.7 million square
miles of the ice sheet. Any additional annual snowfall in East
Antarctica, therefore, is almost certainly attributable to warmer
temperatures, four experts on Antarctica said.
"As the atmosphere warms, it should hold more moisture," said
climatologist Joseph R. McConnell at the Desert Research Institute in
Reno, who helped conduct the study. "In East Antarctica, that means
there should be more snowfall."
The additional snowfall is enough to account for 45 billion tons of
water added to the ice sheet every year, just about equal to the amount
of water flowing annually into the ocean from the melting Greenland
icecap, the scientists reported in research published online Thursday by
the journal Science.
Rising sea level, which could swamp many coastal and island communities,
is considered one of the most serious potential consequences of global
warming, according to the most recent assessment by the United Nations'
Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change.
Overall, sea level is estimated to be rising by 1.8 millimeters a year
worldwide because of the expansion of warming water and the added
outwash from melting glaciers in Greenland, Alaska, tropical highlands
and some areas of Antarctica.
Every millimeter of increased sea level corresponds to about 350 billion
tons of water a year.
The growth in the East Antarctic icecap is enough to slow sea-level rise
by a fraction of that =97 about 0.12 millimeter a year =97 the
researchers reported.
All told, the fresh water locked up in the ice of East Antarctica is
enough to raise the level of the oceans by about 196 feet, experts said.
If it continues to grow as expected, the ice sheet could buffer some,
but not all, of the effects of anticipated sea-level rise for much of
the coming century, the researchers said.
"It is the only large body of ice absorbing sea level rise, not
contributing to it," said Curt H. Davis, a radar mapping expert at the
University of Missouri-Columbia, who led the research team.
The researchers based their conclusions on an analysis of 347 million
radar altimeter measurements made by the European Space Agency's ERS-1
and ERS-2 satellites from June 1992 to May 2003.
They determined that the icecap appeared to be thickening at the rate of
1.8 centimeters every year. The ice is thinning in West Antarctica and
other regions of the continent.
"The changes in the ice look like those expected for a warming world,"
said glaciologist Richard Alley at Pennsylvania State University. "The
new result in no way disproves global warming; if anything, the new
result supports global warming."

Get reality in your life. Failing to balance the budget,

Bush never promised to balance the budget at
this time. That's to come in the future.


... the report
by the Pentagon two days ago that "Iraq war not fairing as well as
originally thought".

According to whom?


The Pentagon.


Link please.


Already posted it once.

That statement in itself is


meaningless. "Not fairing well" could simply


means that we're a little behind schedule. I


suppose you consider the establishment of an


independent Iraqi government as not an


important achievement?


Ask the Pentagon.

.....the lack of protection for the troops he sent in to battle
underequipped and ill prepared.

I suppose you've forgotten this now infamous


quote: "I actually voted for the 87 billion,


before I voted against it". What do you think


that 87 billion was for?




Blaming anyone but Bush for over three years of inadequate supply,
protection, and gear
for our troops shows exactly how well you comprehend your government.

,,the list goes on and his
failures have nothing to do with the demos, despite your hatred.

Yea sure. When you stand up for what is right,


you're bound to take a few on the chin in the


process.



Placing unprepared troops and others in battle is not standing up, it is
a failure and illustration of the president's strategy and incompetence.
Ignoring Iran, Dharfur, and N Korea is not standing up.


Those who refuse to stand up, out of fear of


taking those few on the chin, are the ones to


be very afraid of.




Sort of like yourself in regards to radio law,,you do nothing that can
remotely be considered proactive (standing up) and offer nothing but
reactive lipeservice.

There has been none to date which have been
proven.


Then show me the balanced budget.

Never promised.



No one said it was, but it is part of the president's job that he failed
to manage. Cllaiming that if something isn't promised by the president,
it's ok if he is derelict in ignoring his duties, confirms your lack of
knowledge regarding the position of president.
_
Tell it to the military sons and
daughters and parents who have lost loved ones for the very preventable
reason of not having proper protection, supplies and equipment.

.A very valid reason why John F. Kerry is not


.the president today.




Did Kerry bang Kimberly, or do you continuosly harbor unnatural feelings
and hatred for him for other reasons?
Bush is cutting military funding and it has nthing to do with Kerry.
Once again, you are not even aware of what your own party is
undertaking.
Now Bush is cutting bases in the US to pay for his tax cuts and failing
(admitted by the Pentagon) war, the same thing you blasted Clinton for
daring to entertain a few years ago, and he didn't even do it.

=A0=A0When did I "blast" Clinton for closing military


bases?



You blasted Clinton and claimed he was seeking to dismantle and "weaken"
the military through budget cuts. You have a **** poor memory, Dave.

Rathergate, is a glaring example of one such


smear which got discovered before any real


damage could be done.


You are wired to focus on anything but
responsibility. You seek abdication of the Bush failures through
unrealistic self-denial,

I seek the truth, and I place blame where the


blame belongs,



Except with the leader of the country...as I said, you seek abdication
of responsibility.

and that starts with those who seek to destroy


this country out of a ideological hatred of our


way of life.




Wrong,,,it begins and ends with the president.

I don't blame the one leader with the cajones


to call it like it is and stand up to it.




But's NOT standing up for anything...he's ignoring Dharfur, which is
much worse bllodshed than Hussein EVER committed, he failed to stop the
proliferation and spread of nukes, and N Korea is continuing to produce
them,,three more nuke warheads by year's end with the rods they recently
and publicly collected and announced that they are using them for nukes.
Of course, Iran has solidified several more nukes in the time Bush has
been lording over the oil glut,,,on it goes, yet you know little of it.

The liberals, on the other hand, when the truth
cleverly evades them, make up their own


version of the truth to justify actions which


would, in an earlier generation, be considered


treason.




Bush was the only one to flipflop on his reasons for war, yet when thse
reasons are applied equally to hostile countries, his position
evaporates.

Then there is the more recent Newsweek


gaffe about flushing the Koran down a toilet


(How does one flush a book down a toilet


anyway?).


They have port- a-potty's in Guantanamo, not toilets.

I'm really interested in how you would know


that with any accuracy.



Stay focused and try not to fall off track and delve into personal
realms again, Davey. I know it in the same manner I knew your party
acknowledged global warming and you didn't.

BTW, port-a-potti's don't flush.




All the more reason the story was suspect from the beginning.

Did you know that the gutless clowns at


Newsweek had the nerve to actually blame


the repercussions of their erroneous reporting


on the Bush administration, for not denying it


quickly enough?


The BUsh administration began the phoney reporting with their bogus
"press releases" when it was found to be nothing of the sort, but you
are not surprisingly silent when the Bush party fails with the same
tactics.

This isn't about Bush,




Yea,,right,,I forgot who I was talking to for a second.

this is about a trusted news organization


which recklessly printed a story which turned


out to be bogus,





Sort of like the fabricated press releases from what is to be a trusted
organization (WH) to do whta is best for the people, but who recklessly
fabricated not one, not two, not three, but months and months worth of
phoney bull****
and deliberately misrepresented the fluff as authentic news press
releases.

which resulted in the deaths of 17 people,


and incited further anti-U.S. behavior.




Not as much as the fabricated war Bush employed.

Which begs the question , who's side is


Newsweek on?


They print a lie, and they blame Bush for not


denying it, as the reason why those people


.were killed in the protests. Unbelievable!


Not as unbelievable as a homosexual prostitute circumventing general WH
security protocol reserved for only those with higher clearance with
zero explanation of how and why the security FAILED.

Gee, that one never made the front page.


Sure it did, Dave,,,you just are uninformed regrading everything these
days.

Must have been one of Clinton's leftovers.


That's why the mainstream news didn't fly with
.it.


Mainstream did fly with it. Missed it.



I've never cheated on any assignment that I've
ever done. I've never had to.


Then why did you not provide the 2914 Stony Creek Rd address to the FCC

Ah, so you've decided to print the information

No, it's a simple matter of you wanting to pin every failing on Bush,
when, if you truly understood how the government operates, you would
not make such an ignorant, uninformed claim. Military budgets have to
be approved by congress, a congress in which Kerry voted against
(after he voted for) the necessary money to provide that equipment you

The former soviet union has nukes. The Chinese have nukes. So what?
Now if Osama Bin Laden had a few, I'd be concerned. Or if Saddam had
been allowed to finish his nuke program, I'd be concerned.


Of course, Iran has solidified several more nukes in the time Bush has

had on it. The evidence is still inconclusive on this point, as I have

She's not. That's NOT my wife's name. The address on my ham license is
correct.

America's greatest presidents, once he tames the barbarism in the
middle east.

No,,,the facts confirm what I say. You're so ignorant in the ways of the

hypocrisy spotlight for demanding information from other people that
you're not willing to give of yourself.


Checkmate.

Yep, that's my boat.



No offers, yet, huh? Well, that's what happens when you purchase a used
overpriced POS.


I bought it brand new in 1996. And even 9 years later, it's still
worth more than that scow you take people out fishing in order to earn
the money to pay for your webTV subscription.


Just because you overpaid doesn't mean others will subscribe to your
ignorance.


My boat is worth every penny that I'm asking for it, according to most
surveys that I've researched. It's not like in Florida where the sun
kills gelcoat in a year's time, and salt water exposure corrodes
everything metallic. My boat is garage kept and as clean as the day I
bought it. The summer season hasn't even hit yet. The weather isn't
all that great right now. Sooner or later I expect some interested
buyer activity.

But I'm not in a hurry. If I don't sell it this year, there's always
next. I just had an itch for a new boat, but I can wait. Next year's
bonus added in might give me enough extra money to buy one without
selling the old one right away.......

Jim Hampton May 25th 05 01:05 AM

Hello, Dave

I've been really laughing over this thread. Yep, the deficit is *huge* ...
and when folks wake up, the Democrats will get blamed for "raising taxes".
We are in deep doo - doo here. Reaganomics didn't work then and it doesn't
work now.

As to the marriage protection act that Bush was for, have we heard anything
else about that, or was it to get a big reaction (along with votes) from the
religious folks?

One question begs for an answer: what is the divorce rate in this country?
Care to help Social Security? I'd suggest that once a couple divorces, they
can no longer give nor receive Social Security benefits from another person
(sole exception being to children). I've heard the divorce rate is close to
50%, but I honestly don't know.

I worked for a manager who was on his third or fourth wife. Hmmmm .... I'm
wondering if a woman (or man, for that matter) ever questions why their
intended has been divorced three times. I knew a guy (he passed away over
30 years ago) that was marrying his *fifth* wife! When he passed away, he
was living with a girl friend a good 20 years younger than he.

A lot of interesting questions come to mind with many of these threads, but
few answers.

Nope, I'm not for gay marriage, but I question what is it that drives these
big knee-jerk reactions. I fear that once folks wake up and smell the
coffee, it will be too late. In fact, it may already be too late. If other
countries stop "lending" us money and allowing our deficit to continue, we
are in for a crash. 1929 will look like a picnic. Many countries are
fearing us. Not only for the "Rambo" style of Bush, but our deficit. If we
crash, it will have a huge effect on the rest of the world as well.

Why do you think OPEC doesn't peg their target to the US dollar anymore?
(hint: the dollar is falling and OPEC wants to make more. I read an article

Hello, Dave

I've been really laughing over this thread. Yep, the deficit is *huge* ...
and when folks wake up, the Democrats will get blamed for "raising taxes".


If. in fact, they do "raise taxes", it would be their fault. I do not
let a large deficit bother me. We've had large deficits before, and it
didn't kill us


We are in deep doo - doo here. Reaganomics didn't work then and it doesn't
work now.


I don't know about that. The end of a recession and the beginning of
the biggest period of economic growth followed "Reaganomics".


As to the marriage protection act that Bush was for, have we heard anything
else about that, or was it to get a big reaction (along with votes) from the
religious folks?


That's a good question. One answer might be that there are more
pressing issues right now (Run away filibusters, the war, getting an
energy bill passed etc.).

One question begs for an answer: what is the divorce rate in this country?


According to the stats from:

http://www.census.gov/population/soc.../tabA1-all.xls

the percentage of divorced people is 9.6%. For some reason, Frank was
unable (or unwilling) to read the columns and see the actual numbers,
but if you believe the census bureau, that's what it is.


Care to help Social Security?


The best way to help it is to remove it, and divert all former SS
withholdings into individual 401K accounts. Of course that penalizes
those who have already given into the SS program for their entire
working lives. So the transition has to be gradual so to be fair to
everyone.

I'd suggest that once a couple divorces, they
can no longer give nor receive Social Security benefits from another person
(sole exception being to children). I've heard the divorce rate is close to
50%, but I honestly don't know.


9.6% according to the 2003 census.

I worked for a manager who was on his third or fourth wife. Hmmmm .... I'm
wondering if a woman (or man, for that matter) ever questions why their
intended has been divorced three times.


That would certainly send up a red flag for me. But, like they say,
love is blind and it's hard to be rational when all of your blood is
rushing to another organ in your body.

I knew a guy (he passed away over
30 years ago) that was marrying his *fifth* wife! When he passed away, he
was living with a girl friend a good 20 years younger than he.


Then hopefully he died a happy man, although I would question his
inability to remain faithful, and wonder if there weren't some
"issues" affecting him.

A lot of interesting questions come to mind with many of these threads, but
few answers.


That's the nature of debate, especially on subjects where answers are
elusive and somewhat subjective. There would be no point is debating
if the earth is round or whether the moon is made of green cheese, as
we know the answers to those questions.


Nope, I'm not for gay marriage, but I question what is it that drives these
big knee-jerk reactions.


I usually apply Newton's law of action vs. reaction. Someone does
something extreme and the opposite side responds with a equal and
opposite reaction. There wouldn't be such an outpouring of opposition
to gay marriage if there wasn't such a push to legalize it.



I fear that once folks wake up and smell the
coffee, it will be too late. In fact, it may already be too late. If other
countries stop "lending" us money and allowing our deficit to continue, we
are in for a crash.


That won't happen, because, like it or not, we live in a global
economy, and if we "crash", we take the rest of the world with us.


1929 will look like a picnic. Many countries are
fearing us. Not only for the "Rambo" style of Bush, but our deficit. If we
crash, it will have a huge effect on the rest of the world as well.


Exactly! I don't doubt for a minute that the pseudo-elitist socialist
Europeans would pass up any opportunity to put the screws to us
economically. But even they realize that if they do, they do so at
their own peril.


Why do you think OPEC doesn't peg their target to the US dollar anymore?


By basing their target price on another currency, they get more U.S.
dollars if the dollar is weak. OPEC knows that the dollar will rise
again, and so will the value of their "investment". It's no surprise
that oil prices have been falling as of late, which is coincident with
a strengthening dollar.


(hint: the dollar is falling and OPEC wants to make more. I read an article
that Saudi Arabia wants to build an indoor skiing resort (talk about an air
conditioning bill!) as well as an underwater hotel.


Hey, if they have the money, more power to them. Although, that sort
of materialism smacks against the core values of Wahabbism and radical
Islam. Maybe we are affecting the middle east more than we thought....

Wrong. Ice provides carbon dioxide samples that are available for any
given year. These samples are measured for C14 concentrations, fossil
fuels having a much lower concentration of C14 than natural processes.
The difference is quantified as the percentage of CO2 contributed by
combustion of fossil fuels. Therefore, the contribution of atmospheric

who are without formal education in the field. And your explanations
don't fit within any educational (or engineering) standards, despite
your bogus claim to have had some formal education in electronics.


you called him names and took issue with his career.


I was he who first started to degrade my education and career. I only
kept the same level of civility.



You may have matched my level of 'civility' (subject to debate), but
you didn't even come close to my level of education and experience in
the field of electronics. On the contrary, you tried to denounce me
with nothing but ignorance, generalizations and subjective opinions.
So once again I ask: Where are your facts, Dave?

.... No one is perfect. If the best you
can come up with is 2 mistakes that I made in 10 years worth of

You may have -admitted- two of the many mistakes you have made in 10
years. IMO, that's a pretty -poor- percentage.


Jim
tried talking to you about foreign news sources, and you called him
naive.


If someone truly thinks that a foreign news service is any less likely
to be affected by political bias, then they are naive.



Yet you claim that domestic news services are heavily biased to the
left. If that's true then foreign news services are -more- likely to
be -less- biased, which makes -you- naive.


snip
Care is not a "simile" for "disagree". When you figure that out, you may
ask such questions.



You need to learn the difference between a 'simile' and a 'metaphor'.
Didn't you ever watch that Danny DeVito movie where he played Kotter
to a group of Army dimwits?


Your word games and semantic shuffle will not allow you to wiggle out
of that so easily. If one does not post their opinions, how do we know
what they think on any topic?



Several people have posted opinions that are contrary to your's.
Nobody (except one of your sock puppets) has posted -any- opinion that

So your solution is to simply eliminate Social Security? Hey, neat
idea, but you can't "divert" what you don't have, and the Reps have
tapped the SS trust fund so deep that there isn't anything to
"divert". Bush's solution to SS is a "credit-card" retirement plan,
which isn't any better. Maybe you two should get together and figure
out what "promote the general Welfare" means.

of arguing past history.
Stay focused.

Placing unprepared troops and others in battle is not standing up, it is

Ignoring Iran, Dharfur, and N Korea is not standing up.

Who says we're ignoring it?

We don't have unlimited military resources.


Unless, of course, you want the draft brought

You haev a serious deficit. I implied nothing of the sort, in fact, I

as balance the budget. You implied if the president doesn't promise to
his job, he can be derelict in it. LMAO!
It is part of the president's job that he failed to manage. Claiming
that if something isn't promised by the president, it's ok if he is

My claim simply was Bush failed to balance the budget. It's a fact.
Also is a fact, is it appears to have struck a nerve with you, as you
have gone from denying any Bush failures, to defending his failures.


Military budgets have to be approved by


congress, a congress in which Kerry voted


against (after he voted for) the necessary


money to provide that equipment you feel we


were glaringly lacking.




Isn't me, it's the American families of the dead and the soldiers in the
field, and the high ranking officers who first brought this to light.
This month's Maxim magazine printed a bunch of letters from the troops,
signed with rank and names and where they are assigned in the middle
east. Stars and Stripes, a very republican publication, also printed
many letters from those serving. Number THREE on the soldiers complaint
list is RUMSFELD, and ALL their letters confirm the exact opposite of
everything you think you know about the war.
Bush is cutting military funding and it has nthing to do with Kerry.

He is merely doing the same things as many


corporations. Making due with less. Unless,


you want a large tax increase.



Yes, i would much rather have a tax increase
to pay for adequate gear and protection for out soldiers. Many of us are
not so galavant when trivializing the lives of our soldiers, as many of
us don't put tax cuts, like yourself, above the lives of our soldiers.
Once again, you are not even aware of what your own party is
undertaking.
Now Bush is cutting bases in the US to pay for his tax cuts and failing
(admitted by the Pentagon) war, the same thing you blasted Clinton for
daring to entertain a few years ago, and he didn't even do it.

=A0=A0When did I "blast" Clinton for closing military


bases?


You blasted Clinton and claimed he was seeking to dismantle and "weaken"
the military through budget cuts. You have a **** poor memory, Dave.

Not the same thing.




Right,,because Bush is doing the military slashing, it must be ok.

Bush is not eliminating


any crucial bases or programs.




Eliminate your poor choice of the subjective term "crucial" and your
hypocrisy glares and you are left with no salient point.

Rathergate, is a glaring example of one such


smear which got discovered before any real


damage could be done.


You are wired to focus on anything but
responsibility. You seek abdication of the Bush failures through
unrealistic self-denial,

I seek the truth, and I place blame where the


blame belongs,


Except with the leader of the country...as I said, you seek abdication
of responsibility.

and that starts with those who seek to destroy


this country out of a ideological hatred of our


way of life.


Wrong,,,it begins and ends with the president.

The president didn't fly airplanes into the trade


towers or the pentagon.



Right,,,,he just failed to prevent it, as the Official 911 Report
suggests...you know,,,the Presidential Commission he was against, then
for investigating his administrations ill-preparedness and response to
911.

The president didn't try to annex a neighboring
country.


Right....

The president didn't exterminate hundreds of


thousands of his own people.



He's on his way with the number of dead in this war.

The president didn't blow a hole in the USS


Cole.



Neither did Kerry.

The president didn't blow up embassies. The


list goes on.

=A0


So do his failures, such as curbing more and more of our rights under
the false guise of keeping us safer, when we are under more danger than
ever before. In fact, puppets like you are programmed to incorrectly
parrot that Bush has protected us since 911, when nothing is further
from the truth. We have had several attacks on US soil since then, but
Bush, keeping a perfect record, fails to apprehend those responsible.


=A0I don't blame the one leader with the cajones


to call it like it is and stand up to it.


But's NOT standing up for anything...he's ignoring Dharfur, which is
much worse bllodshed than Hussein EVER committed

Dharfur does not threaten this country in any


way.



Neither did Hussein. Read the 911 Report.
Bush failed to stop the
proliferation and spread of nukes, and N Korea is continuing to produce
them,,three more nuke warheads by year's end with the rods they recently
and publicly collected and announced that they are using them for nukes.

The former soviet union has nukes. The


Chinese have nukes. So what? Now if Osama


Bin Laden had a few, I'd be concerned. Or if


Saddam had been allowed to finish his nuke


program, I'd be concerned.



He wasn't working on one during the invasion. It's a shame you have to
learn history for this group by denying it, then researching it for
yourself when the proper links are placed in front of you.

Of course, Iran has solidified several more
nukes in the time Bush has been lording over the oil glut,,,on it goes,
yet you know little of it.

What oil glut? Do you not read the


commodities page?




Clown. The commodities page has nothing to do with the world oil supply.
It's a management problem, not one of supply and demand.

The liberals, on the other hand, when the truth
cleverly evades them, make up their own


version of the truth to justify actions which


would, in an earlier generation, be considered


treason.


Bush was the only one to flipflop on his reasons for war, yet when thse
reasons are applied equally to hostile countries, his position
evaporates.

.He has not flip flopped on any of his reasons.


Then perhaps you can explain what reasons were given the first time
congress denied his plea to invade Iraq.


They remain the same as always.



You're wrong. The reasons presented to congress each time had nothing to
dow with each other. When he was denied the first time, he invoked a
reason as "liberating Iraq". The second time, he claimed violations of
the UN and that Hussein was amassing WMDS.

Then there is the more recent Newsweek

Contrary to your claims that have been corrected by the majority of the

.Prove it. Post the names, posts and other


references.



Na-na-nee-nee-noo-noo,,,,"pwove it"

Prove it.


See above.

Other that you, Frank, and


occasionally Landshark, who actually even


gives enough of a crap about these jabs that


we exchange, to even chime in?


You are again under the mistaken and erroneous belief one must "chime
in" to all exchanges in order to express they care?

Well gee, how then are we supposed to know


that they disagree?



Care is not a "simile" for "disagree". When you figure that out, you may
ask such questions.

Did you buy Frank's crystal ball?


Dude, you are so far out, you can never regain composure.

I'm not the one who's suggesting that I can


read minds in order to glean the opinions of


people who do not post their opinions here.


You invoked your schooling of your own free will. This is where your
**** poor communication skill comes in to play. When one enters a topic
in to a conversation, be prepared to substantiate it.

.Just like you gave us the names and


addresses of all of your publishing gigs when


you once claimed to be a "professional


journalist"?




Exactly. I provided where I went to school and for who I was employed.
That horrible **** poor memory you have is partially responsible for
your communication deficits.
If you are going to make the rules, you have to play by them too.
Otherwise, you're a hypocrite. Your constant
excuses and whining about not having to defend your claims portray you
exactly how you are viewed.....by the majority : )
You have not provided for one
single piece of information you have provided
here. Yet you expect others to do it. Hypocrisy.

Your personal


obsessive mania concerning my personal life


Yet it is you who is obsessively begging for personal info about me.


C'mon, you can do better.



When you take to providing a contingent of explanations, it reiterates
my perfect aim and accuracy.

No, the evidence is most certainly conclusive, as my links were dated of

Once again, because you are unable to grasp the methods in

Gas is gas, there is no way to determine where it all came from once
it is all mixed into a large swirl.


Ah, so you've decided to print the information
without my permission eh? I knew you couldn't
resist the urge.


I don't need your permission to ask what is in the public domain.


The why did you ask in the first place?


I asked for your explicit and implied permission to post related
information. Do I have it?


Why ask, you claimed to not need permission. Why do you insist in
talking in circles?


BTW, you need to either upgrade or trash your
"Spy" software (Or ask for a refund of that
$9.95).



Keep guessing all that you will never know.


As you seem to, like my wife's name.

_
Yet, you brokke FCC law by not providing it to the FCC.

Are you retarded, or can you simply not read?
You are mistaken about my current address.



When you take to lying about your wife and everything else you have lied
about in the past, nothig you can say can ever regain a reputation for
credibility. You destroyed any you had long ago.


What you think is irrelevant. Anyone else would clearly see that my
old address matches the 1993 QRZ database, and could easily determine
that I changed my address when I moved as required. But you are trying
to insist that my old address is my current address and accuse me of
not changing it (back) in the FCC database. You may have some skills
at cyber stalking but you clearly cannot comprehend what you find.


.Your "Cyber detective" software is out of date.


I have no software,,,besides,,webtv doesn't use software. Off you go,
now,,,


No, it's web-based, for a fee.


My current address IS the one on my FCC
license. The one you have is the OLD one.
Stony creek road was were I was born and
raised and spent most of my CB career. I
.moved from there in 1999.


You can verify this by going on QRZ and
loading the 1993 version of the callbook, and
then look at what address my call is listed
with.


I accept (once again) your apology. No one claimed the Stony Creek was
your curretn address, Davie.


That exactly what you claimed when you accused me of having an
incorrect address on my FCC license. Backpedal all that you want, but
I hope the crow tastes good.

I now have you in such a freakin' tizzy, you are
denying your own wife's name when it has been confirmed and you are
scrambling to explain awwy everything I posted.

How has it been confirmed?



Ahhh,,,,,I prefer to remain content in wacthing you self-tighten that
noose. The squirming you share with us is good for a bit longer.


I other words, you're lying (again).


Because YOU think it is? I am telling you, you
are dead wrong about my wife's name.




I know exactly what you say, but the fact is her exact name appeared on
the change of address card submitted to the Post Office with the same
address shared by you,,there. That's another small bit of information
you were ignornat of..when one places a change of address card wioth the
Post Office, if you fail to check the little box at the bottom that
tells of your privacy, they SELL the information to listbrokers. Now,
tell us how the Post Office gt it wrong, Dave...LMFAO!


No, your cyber spy site got it wrong. They've mixed up people with a
common last name. It wouldn't be the first time.


_
In fact, she
used to reside on Gravers Road, but you go on denying she is your wife
because of the shame you rained down upon yourself.


Well, unless you know her maiden name, you can't trace her roots
before we were married, and I never lived on "Graver's road", like I
said, I never even heard of it.

I never even heard of Gravers road.


Really? You grew up near there and never heard of it? Need the exact
address on Gravers Road and then you can use the mapblast, eh?
Ok,,she was born in 1963 and lived at 1819 Gravers Road in Norristown.


Oh, this is just too easy.....

http://www.mapquest.com/maps/map.adp...te=PA&zipcode=


There is no such address in the mapquest database, as the link shows.
Once again, you're wrong, and I proved it.


(We must be up to a
dozen things you've been wrong about now).



Cripes...this talk from you sounds just like it did when it was shown
you lied about having a Phelps Stationmaster antenna.


How was that shown? You have nothing but your own misguided opinion.


This is what happens when you play with
cyperspy wannabe software for $9.95.



Does that type software give that information? How about birthdates and
applications for marriage on file with the state,,,including addresses?


Sure, for a fee. I find it funny that you spent money to try find out
my personal information. Most of which was either outdated or just
plain wrong. Yet you hypocritically accuse ME of seeking your personal
information. I have not posted one bit of information about you. Quite
frankly, I don't really care. You are just a newsgroup distraction,
the Jar-Jar Binks of rec.radio.cb.

_
It's not what I think, it's what more and more
regs are conveying to you on a regualr basis.

Name them.



Well, sure,,,Frank taugh you better regarding radio technical
competency,


Frank has some issues as well. He failed to recognize common industry
terms, and discredited my explanations of common electronic circuits
because they didn't fit within his own narrow "education".

you called him names and took issue with his career.


I was he who first started to degrade my education and career. I only
kept the same level of civility.



Shark taught you better regarding your own state's driving laws,


Shark basically helped me prove my point that you are basically guilty
until you prove your innocence in traffic court. He thought perhaps,
that he was countering what he thought was my contention that you
couldn't beat a traffic ticket. But by illustrating the effort that he
went through to beat his traffic ticket, he proved my point that you
can win, but you have to prove your innocence.

He also tried to counter that the law in my state is that in most
cases, the cops have to give you at least 5 MPH tolerance before
citing you. When I provided the exact statute that spelled this out,
his argument then became that "a cop can write anything he wants",
which, when placed against the context of his prowess at fighting
tickets, should have clued him in to the fruitless nature of writing a
ticket that would immediately get kicked out when someone slaps a copy
of pa statute 3368 into evidence.


and he was
attacked by "Geo" all of a sudden with homo remarks,,BTW, where is "Geo"
these days? : )


I wouldn't know. But I thought "George" was now actually "Chris".
Besides, he's busy yanking Steveo's chain. And you can thank Frank for
digging up the transsexual stuff that gets thrown at Shark.


Our British friend across the pond taught you about cb radios that come
type accepted with what are legal roger beeps, but you denied that as
well, screamed and begged for proof, was given it, and humbled.


Yea well, first off, it was Bert Craig who set me straight. And
considering that I've been here posting for close to 10 years now, I'm
bound to get a few things wrong. No one is perfect. If the best you
can come up with is 2 mistakes that I made in 10 years worth of
posting, I'd say that's a pretty good percentage.


Jim
tried talking to you about foreign news sources, and you called him
naive.


If someone truly thinks that a foreign news service is any less likely
to be affected by political bias, then they are naive.

No Davie,,as is always the pattern, you blame everyone else when
the problem is yourself.


That's why you spent money to find out my information. You are fixated
and obsessed with me.


_
Google hypocrite and your name, and you will find those who taught you
better.


You mean those hypocrites who hypocritically call other people
hypocrites?


.Nice dodge.


But I drive a Ford.



A blue one whose license plates do not match the address given to the
FCC as provided by law.


No, actually the color is teal, but it shows up more blue in pictures.
Pictures that anyone can freely see on my web site. But there are no
license plates showing on my truck, so you're lying again.

Tell you what, since you can't figure out a simple problem of
determining which of my two addresses is my correct one, why don't you
call the FCC and complain. I'm sure they will get right to the bottom
of the issue.

Sorry, but unlike you, who life's mission seems to be a fixation on
every post I've ever made (Many of which you still got wrong), I don't
remember the content of 3 year old posts. You are just not that
important.


Your personal
obsessive mania concerning my personal life


Yet it is you who is obsessively begging for personal info about me.


Who's begging? I simply illustrate your hypocrisy when you demand
verifiable personal information, but refuse to give any of yourself.



C'mon, you can do better.

My explanations only serve to illustrate, to the casual observer,
just how off the wall you are. Most other people do not share your

And the memory of every other radio freak that reads these pages. When

one would recall it. Hell, even the antenna gurus on these pages that
owned hundreds, perhaps thousands of antennas over their lifetime, would
recall a specific antenna, at least the brand..yet, when you were

you had no clue what I meant when I asked about your "Phelps

We are in deep doo - doo here. Reaganomics didn't work then and it

doesn't
work now.


I don't know about that. The end of a recession and the beginning of
the biggest period of economic growth followed "Reaganomics".


As to the marriage protection act that Bush was for, have we heard

anything
else about that, or was it to get a big reaction (along with votes) from

the
religious folks?


That's a good question. One answer might be that there are more
pressing issues right now (Run away filibusters, the war, getting an
energy bill passed etc.).

One question begs for an answer: what is the divorce rate in this

country?

According to the stats from:

http://www.census.gov/population/soc.../tabA1-all.xls

the percentage of divorced people is 9.6%. For some reason, Frank was
unable (or unwilling) to read the columns and see the actual numbers,
but if you believe the census bureau, that's what it is.


Care to help Social Security?


The best way to help it is to remove it, and divert all former SS
withholdings into individual 401K accounts. Of course that penalizes
those who have already given into the SS program for their entire
working lives. So the transition has to be gradual so to be fair to
everyone.

I'd suggest that once a couple divorces, they
can no longer give nor receive Social Security benefits from another

person
(sole exception being to children). I've heard the divorce rate is close

to
50%, but I honestly don't know.


9.6% according to the 2003 census.

I worked for a manager who was on his third or fourth wife. Hmmmm ....

I'm
wondering if a woman (or man, for that matter) ever questions why their
intended has been divorced three times.


That would certainly send up a red flag for me. But, like they say,
love is blind and it's hard to be rational when all of your blood is
rushing to another organ in your body.

I knew a guy (he passed away over
30 years ago) that was marrying his *fifth* wife! When he passed away,

he
was living with a girl friend a good 20 years younger than he.


Then hopefully he died a happy man, although I would question his
inability to remain faithful, and wonder if there weren't some
"issues" affecting him.

A lot of interesting questions come to mind with many of these threads,

but
few answers.


That's the nature of debate, especially on subjects where answers are
elusive and somewhat subjective. There would be no point is debating
if the earth is round or whether the moon is made of green cheese, as
we know the answers to those questions.


Nope, I'm not for gay marriage, but I question what is it that drives

these
big knee-jerk reactions.


I usually apply Newton's law of action vs. reaction. Someone does
something extreme and the opposite side responds with a equal and
opposite reaction. There wouldn't be such an outpouring of opposition
to gay marriage if there wasn't such a push to legalize it.



I fear that once folks wake up and smell the
coffee, it will be too late. In fact, it may already be too late. If

other
countries stop "lending" us money and allowing our deficit to continue,

we
are in for a crash.


That won't happen, because, like it or not, we live in a global
economy, and if we "crash", we take the rest of the world with us.


1929 will look like a picnic. Many countries are
fearing us. Not only for the "Rambo" style of Bush, but our deficit. If

we
crash, it will have a huge effect on the rest of the world as well.


Exactly! I don't doubt for a minute that the pseudo-elitist socialist
Europeans would pass up any opportunity to put the screws to us
economically. But even they realize that if they do, they do so at
their own peril.


Why do you think OPEC doesn't peg their target to the US dollar anymore?


By basing their target price on another currency, they get more U.S.
dollars if the dollar is weak. OPEC knows that the dollar will rise
again, and so will the value of their "investment". It's no surprise
that oil prices have been falling as of late, which is coincident with
a strengthening dollar.


(hint: the dollar is falling and OPEC wants to make more. I read an

article
that Saudi Arabia wants to build an indoor skiing resort (talk about an

air
conditioning bill!) as well as an underwater hotel.


Hey, if they have the money, more power to them. Although, that sort
of materialism smacks against the core values of Wahabbism and radical
Islam. Maybe we are affecting the middle east more than we thought....

Hello, Dave

I mispoke. I meant the number of marriages that end up in divorce. Most
divorced couples remarry. The "approaching 50%" is the number of first
marriages that end up in divorce. Usually, one of the couple already has an
intended and only needs the divorce to immediately remarry. By the end of a
year or two, both are counted as married, although no longer to each other.

As to the dollar, I agree we have had deficits before; but this thing is
huge. I also suspect that they want to change Social Security (and it will
have to be changed) to an extent that they don't have to pay back all of
those IOUs.

No, the evidence is most certainly conclusive, as my links were dated of

Which is meaningless, as new evidence is always being obtained. There
has been no definitive decision made with regard to man's affect on
global warming, as there are too many unexplained variable. The
antarctic ice pack increasing as the arctic ice pack melts is but one
example.



Which, ironically, provides proof of what you deny. See below.


Once again, because you are unable to grasp the methods in
which concentrations of certain gases can ascertain and pinpoint with
extreme accuracy what is manmade and what is naturally occurring and
released into the atmosphere, does not make it any less so.


Gas is gas, there is no way to determine where it all came from once
it is all mixed into a large swirl.



Wrong. Ice provides carbon dioxide samples that are available for any
given year. These samples are measured for C14 concentrations, fossil
fuels having a much lower concentration of C14 than natural processes.
The difference is quantified as the percentage of CO2 contributed by
combustion of fossil fuels. Therefore, the contribution of atmospheric
CO2 from human sources is very accurately measured.


No they are not. Since CO2 can come from a variety of places including
volcanos, and large forest fires any of which can skew those results.
When the apparent variation in the sun's energy output is taken into
consideration, it becomes very difficult to determine the exact rate
of global warming and how much of it is part of the cyclic climatic
change and how much of it is caused strictly as a result of human
activity.

Well, sure,,,Frank taugh you better regarding radio technical

Frank has some issues as well. He failed to recognize common industry

because they didn't fit within his own narrow "education".



I recognized the "terms" as being poorly defined slang used by some
who are without formal education in the field.


I'm sure the senior level engineers who I work with would take
exception to your highly sheltered and quite ignorant claims.


And your explanations
don't fit within any educational (or engineering) standards, despite
your bogus claim to have had some formal education in electronics.


Which only shows just how sheltered your own education and (more
importantly) your real world experience has been.


you called him names and took issue with his career.


I was he who first started to degrade my education and career. I only
kept the same level of civility.



You may have matched my level of 'civility' (subject to debate), but
you didn't even come close to my level of education and experience in
the field of electronics.


Frank, like my mother once said: Self praise stinks, and boy do you
smell......


On the contrary, you tried to denounce me
with nothing but ignorance, generalizations and subjective opinions.


Which is exactly what you did.

So once again I ask: Where are your facts, Dave?


Where are yours? Oh that's right, they're on that website right next
to the one with all the left wing anti-war propaganda.......


snip
.... No one is perfect. If the best you
can come up with is 2 mistakes that I made in 10 years worth of
posting, I'd say that's a pretty good percentage.



You may have -admitted- two of the many mistakes you have made in 10
years. IMO, that's a pretty -poor- percentage.


I'll leave it to you and your obsessed minion Twisty to dig up all of
my mistakes. Until then, your ****ing in the wind.


Jim
tried talking to you about foreign news sources, and you called him
naive.


If someone truly thinks that a foreign news service is any less likely
to be affected by political bias, then they are naive.



Yet you claim that domestic news services are heavily biased to the
left. If that's true then foreign news services are -more- likely to
be -less- biased, which makes -you- naive.


That statement makes absolutely no logical sense. Where is the logic
that supports your claim that a foreign news service bias is in any
way connected to domestic news services?

Of course your statement, however ignorant and illogical, still did
not address my claim which was that foreign news services are just as
likely to be politically swayed as any in this country. They are not
immune to agenda driven slant. But the exact degree of bias relative
to domestic services is irrelevant. You care to deny that? I suppose
you would find Al-Jazeera to be the bastion of objectivity?




snip
Care is not a "simile" for "disagree". When you figure that out, you may
ask such questions.



You need to learn the difference between a 'simile' and a 'metaphor'.
Didn't you ever watch that Danny DeVito movie where he played Kotter
to a group of Army dimwits?


I wholeheartedly agree with you. Twisty should learn the difference
between those terms. You did know to whom you were directing your
comments right?


Your word games and semantic shuffle will not allow you to wiggle out
of that so easily. If one does not post their opinions, how do we know
what they think on any topic?



Several people have posted opinions that are contrary to your's.


Several? Hardly. Other than you Twisty and sometimes Landshark (Who's
mostly annoyed at the continuing banter), who else has disagreed with
my advice on CB radio? If you want to talk about politics, there are
too few facts to make any definitive choice as to who is "right" or
"wrong".


Nobody (except one of your sock puppets) has posted -any- opinion that
supports or defends -your- opinions, even in rec.boats.


I have had many supporting opinions. Heck, in rec.boats, the
conservatives are pretty much even with the liberals. The
conservatives mount far better logical arguments. The liberals there
tend to limit their opinions to blindly regurgitating talking points
and cut and paste articles written by other people. So much for
independent thought.

And I have no sock puppets, your attempt to bolster your own sagging
credibility by trying to discredit mine notwithstanding. You are
becoming as paranoid and narcissistic as Twisty.

Who cares about the RATE? The total amount of divorced people,

down by age, race, gender, and income, but the total combined results
are 9.6%


And for some reason, you were unable (or unwilling)

It's not the divorce rate, it is the percentage of the population that

So your solution is to simply eliminate Social Security? Hey, neat
idea, but you can't "divert" what you don't have, and the Reps have
tapped the SS trust fund so deep that there isn't anything to
"divert".


Care to substantiate that statement with some hard facts?

Bush's solution to SS is a "credit-card" retirement plan,
which isn't any better. Maybe you two should get together and figure
out what "promote the general Welfare" means.


America was never meant to be a "Welfare state", despite the
objections of liberals who would socialize every program and service,
at the expense of the people who actually earn money.

Ah, well that's a different kettle of fish. Some people marry several
times. Others stay married for 50 years or more. Some never marry.

Depending on the agenda of the site, you can find numbers to support
the notion that the institution of marriage is in the crapper, or that
it is making a dramatic comeback. Take what you read with a grain of

Ok then. If you admit that Stony Creek is not my current address, and
you still claim that the address on my Amateur license is not the

that there is yet another address that I am supposedly living at. Ok,

(We must be up to a


dozen things you've been wrong about now).


Cripes...this talk from you sounds just like it did when it was shown
you lied about having a Phelps Stationmaster antenna.

How was that shown? You have nothing but
your own misguided opinion.



And the memory of every other radio freak that reads these pages. When
one has ever owned a specific base antenna, no matter how many years
ago, it can always be recalled.


An assumption on several counts.

If one owned a moonraker in their day,
one would recall it. Hell, even the antenna gurus on these pages that
owned hundreds, perhaps thousands of antennas over their lifetime, would
recall a specific antenna, at least the brand..yet, when you were
questioned only a year or two after you made a comment about owning one,
you had no clue what I meant when I asked about your "Phelps
Stationmaster".


Sorry Charlie, the original comment about the Stationmaster was made
in 1995, and you only showed up on the scene in 1999 or 2000, not a
"year or two later".

In fact, you responded with "What Phelps stationmaster?


No, the correct quote was "What Phelps?".


The statistical probablility factor you love to employ works good here,
as does your often invoked "majority rule" clause. The majority would
remember their antenna, likewise, the majority would believe,
corrrectly, that one who claimed they owned a certain antenna yet could
not recall it when asked a few short years after their original claim,
is a liar.


Not when one considers that the antenna was for a repeater, and the
comment was made 4 or 5 years prior.

I never personally had a Stationmaster on my house. But I do have part
ownership of a 220 Mhz repeater, which makes the antenna technically
part "mine".


Does that type software give that information? How about birthdates and
applications for marriage on file with the state,,,including addresses?

Sure, for a fee. I find it funny that you spent
money to try find out my personal information.


Of course you do, as you need such a scenario in order to soothe
yourself. You're way beyond your element, realize it, and this is your
familiar mechanism of defense to stop your psyche from further
cracking: conjured explanations for all you can not explain and do not
know.

generally has access to it, and how much is costs the average person
to gain access to it, assuming you have authorization. Certain medical

In most cases. I do not argue absolutes. It's too easy to prove wrong.
All it takes is one example.


...shark proved you wrong with one
post and a single example of an exception proving you wrong.


Shark does not live in PA so he cannot "prove" me wrong in matters not
endemic to Pa. The law in PA, as of statute 3368, explicitly calls for
those tolerance speeds. A cop will not give a ticket , in most cases,
for any speed less than 5 MPH over the posted limit, as it is sure to
get thrown out.

You can play your word games, and Frank can dig up his stopwatch, but

You are the only one who expressed that others have to "chime in" in

reading this group a few year ago, adn I also know for a fact Riley used

bureaucratic bull****, he no longer has time for Oxendine.


No argument. But if people are "lurking" or sandbagging, and they

what they are thinking about any given topic?



Yes, and I could claim to be George W. Bush.

It's far easier when you're up front about who you are from the
beginning. I could have just as easily invented a cartoon character,
hid behind it, and kept totally anonymous. But I have nothing to
hide.

The funniest part is that when you reveal truthful information about
me, I don't deny it, since I don't care. But when you lie (or are
misinformed), it makes me laugh to see you defend your methods so
vehemently. If and when you finally get the name of my wife correct,
I'll admit it. Like I said, I have nothing to hide.

Keep digging.

One question begs for an answer: what is the divorce rate in this country?

According to the stats from:

http://www.census.gov/population/soc.../tabA1-all.xls

the percentage of divorced people is 9.6%. For some reason, Frank was
unable (or unwilling) to read the columns and see the actual numbers,
but if you believe the census bureau, that's what it is.



For some reason, you were unable (or unwilling) to accept the clear
statement by the Census Bureau that they do not keep track of marraige
and divorce rates.


Who cares about the RATE? The total amount of divorced people,
according to the chart is 9.6% as of 2003. You can break the numbers
down by age, race, gender, and income, but the total combined results
are 9.6%


And for some reason, you were unable (or unwilling)
to explain how you derived the divorce rate from the table you cited.


It's not the divorce rate, it is the percentage of the population that
is divorced. If you would read the spreadsheet, you'd see that.



Yet for some reason, you are -still- unable (or unwilling) to cough up
the marriage data so that it can be compared to the divorce data.


Care to help Social Security?

The best way to help it is to remove it, and divert all former SS
withholdings into individual 401K accounts. Of course that penalizes
those who have already given into the SS program for their entire
working lives. So the transition has to be gradual so to be fair to
everyone.



So your solution is to simply eliminate Social Security? Hey, neat
idea, but you can't "divert" what you don't have, and the Reps have
tapped the SS trust fund so deep that there isn't anything to
"divert".


Care to substantiate that statement with some hard facts?



Like the way -you- back up -your- statements with hard facts? Sure....
It's true because I say it's true.


Bush's solution to SS is a "credit-card" retirement plan,
which isn't any better. Maybe you two should get together and figure
out what "promote the general Welfare" means.


America was never meant to be a "Welfare state", despite the
objections of liberals who would socialize every program and service,
at the expense of the people who actually earn money.



If you could quote any liberal who said that America should be a
"welfare state" I might agree.


I'd suggest that once a couple divorces, they
can no longer give nor receive Social Security benefits from another person
(sole exception being to children). I've heard the divorce rate is close to
50%, but I honestly don't know.

9.6% according to the 2003 census.



http://www.census.gov/population/www.../marr-div.html

So what part of "The U.S. Census Bureau does not collect the number of
marriages and divorces that take place in a given year" do you not
understand?


What part of 9.6% of the total population is divorced do YOU not
understand?



What percent of people are married, Dave?


snip
Nope, I'm not for gay marriage, but I question what is it that drives these
big knee-jerk reactions.

I usually apply Newton's law of action vs. reaction. Someone does
something extreme and the opposite side responds with a equal and
opposite reaction. There wouldn't be such an outpouring of opposition
to gay marriage if there wasn't such a push to legalize it.



"In a free society, you don't need a reason to make something legal.
You need a reason to make something illegal."

And you accuse ME of watching too much TV?



You do, and that's why I used the quote.

Wrong. Ice provides carbon dioxide samples that are available for any
given year. These samples are measured for C14 concentrations, fossil
fuels having a much lower concentration of C14 than natural processes.
The difference is quantified as the percentage of CO2 contributed by
combustion of fossil fuels. Therefore, the contribution of atmospheric
CO2 from human sources is very accurately measured.


No they are not. Since CO2 can come from a variety of places including
volcanos, and large forest fires any of which can skew those results.



Wrong. Volcanos give off very little CO2 -- most of the gasses are
Hydrogen Sulfide and oxides of Sulfer. And the Carbon Dioxide from
forest fires is easily calculated. In fact, forest fires (both recent
and ancient) are studied for their impact on the environment and have
been found to cause very little variation in CO2 concentration simply
because they occur every year, and are actually -decreasing- in both
frequency and intensity.


When the apparent variation in the sun's energy output is taken into
consideration, it becomes very difficult to determine the exact rate
of global warming and how much of it is part of the cyclic climatic
change and how much of it is caused strictly as a result of human
activity.



Wrong. Solar variations can be determined from tree ring growth, and
when compared to ice samples they can be differentiated from CO2
concentrations.

Well, sure,,,Frank taugh you better regarding radio technical
competency,

Frank has some issues as well. He failed to recognize common industry
terms, and discredited my explanations of common electronic circuits
because they didn't fit within his own narrow "education".



I recognized the "terms" as being poorly defined slang used by some
who are without formal education in the field.


I'm sure the senior level engineers who I work with would take
exception to your highly sheltered and quite ignorant claims.



Yet for some reason, you are -still- unable (or unwilling) to provide
the names of those "senior level engineers".


And your explanations
don't fit within any educational (or engineering) standards, despite
your bogus claim to have had some formal education in electronics.


Which only shows just how sheltered your own education and (more
importantly) your real world experience has been.



Yet for some reason, you are -still- unable (or unwilling) to name the
tech school you claim to have attended.


you called him names and took issue with his career.

I was he who first started to degrade my education and career. I only
kept the same level of civility.



You may have matched my level of 'civility' (subject to debate), but
you didn't even come close to my level of education and experience in
the field of electronics.


Frank, like my mother once said: Self praise stinks, and boy do you
smell......



Probably because I've been busy working on my garage. But the fact
remains that, no matter how you would like to believe otherwise, your
education and experience in the field doesn't measure up to mine.


On the contrary, you tried to denounce me
with nothing but ignorance, generalizations and subjective opinions.


Which is exactly what you did.



Wrong. I provided facts and logic. You choose to ignore any facts or
logic that isn't consistent with your "core beliefs".


So once again I ask: Where are your facts, Dave?


Where are yours? Oh that's right, they're on that website right next
to the one with all the left wing anti-war propaganda.......



I've provided fact after fact after fact. All the facts I have
provided can be independently verified by yourself and anyone else
willing to do so. You have provided nothing of the sort in -any-
topic.


snip
.... No one is perfect. If the best you
can come up with is 2 mistakes that I made in 10 years worth of
posting, I'd say that's a pretty good percentage.



You may have -admitted- two of the many mistakes you have made in 10
years. IMO, that's a pretty -poor- percentage.


I'll leave it to you and your obsessed minion Twisty to dig up all of
my mistakes. Until then, your ****ing in the wind.


Jim
tried talking to you about foreign news sources, and you called him
naive.

If someone truly thinks that a foreign news service is any less likely
to be affected by political bias, then they are naive.



Yet you claim that domestic news services are heavily biased to the
left. If that's true then foreign news services are -more- likely to
be -less- biased, which makes -you- naive.


That statement makes absolutely no logical sense.



Only because you are incapable of thinking logically.


Where is the logic
that supports your claim that a foreign news service bias is in any
way connected to domestic news services?



That's not what I said, Dave. Learn to read instead of gazing into
your crystal ball.


Of course your statement, however ignorant and illogical, still did
not address my claim which was that foreign news services are just as
likely to be politically swayed as any in this country. They are not
immune to agenda driven slant. But the exact degree of bias relative
to domestic services is irrelevant. You care to deny that?



Absolutely. Any news service is subject to bias simply because must
decide if any given article is newsworthy. US news services are biased
because of corporate ownership influences and target audience
demographics. IOW, the Dutch are far less concerned with American news
than Americans, so an independent Dutch news agency is going to have
far less bias than any US news service, NPR included.


I suppose
you would find Al-Jazeera to be the bastion of objectivity?



I don't think Jim claimed to get his news from Al-Jazeera. Or is that
something you divined from your crystal ball?




snip
Care is not a "simile" for "disagree". When you figure that out, you may
ask such questions.



You need to learn the difference between a 'simile' and a 'metaphor'.
Didn't you ever watch that Danny DeVito movie where he played Kotter
to a group of Army dimwits?


I wholeheartedly agree with you. Twisty should learn the difference
between those terms. You did know to whom you were directing your
comments right?



No, I didn't. But since you didn't spot his error, my statement
stands.


Your word games and semantic shuffle will not allow you to wiggle out
of that so easily. If one does not post their opinions, how do we know
what they think on any topic?



Several people have posted opinions that are contrary to your's.


Several? Hardly. Other than you Twisty and sometimes Landshark (Who's
mostly annoyed at the continuing banter), who else has disagreed with
my advice on CB radio?



After 10 years of posting I'm sure I could find more than a few in the
archives.


If you want to talk about politics, there are
too few facts to make any definitive choice as to who is "right" or
"wrong".



Regardless, there are -many- people who have posted political opinions
that are contrary to your own warped and subjective whinings.


Nobody (except one of your sock puppets) has posted -any- opinion that
supports or defends -your- opinions, even in rec.boats.


I have had many supporting opinions. Heck, in rec.boats, the
conservatives are pretty much even with the liberals.



You must be cross-posting to an alternative universe because that's
not what comes up on my newsreader.


The
conservatives mount far better logical arguments. The liberals there
tend to limit their opinions to blindly regurgitating talking points
and cut and paste articles written by other people. So much for
independent thought.



They "regurgitate" their arguments in order to find some path of
understanding through your thick skull and to your brain, assuming you
actually have a brain.


And I have no sock puppets, your attempt to bolster your own sagging
credibility by trying to discredit mine notwithstanding. You are
becoming as paranoid and narcissistic as Twisty.



Doesn't matter since your only supporter has left the building.
