Take a little personal responsibility for yourself.

I do, Brian.

I accept responsibility for what I post. That's why when I post something
that is later proven to be other than what I suggested it was I say "I stand
corrected" or otherwise acknowledge my error.

There is no evidence of that.

You have yet to do that despite having been proven "wrong" over and over.

You say "proof," yet you have none.

The many threads that you sponsor are usually titled, "Lend Steps in
own Feces" or some such other lunacy.

There is no selectivity. You bring criticism upon yourself for being
such a jerk.


(1) Who's "Lend"...?!?!

obvious typo

(2) If "Lend", or whoever, wasn't making so many stupid, easily refuted
misrepresentations about Amateur Radio in general or certain persons in
particular, threads like those you mention wouldn't show up.

You don't know who "Lend" is, but you're certain he's "...making so
many stupid, easily refuted misrepresentations...blah blah
horesecrap."

That makes you a liar. Again.

Suck it up, Steve. No dodges. Admit you were wrong.

(3) As for "selectivity", I believe I've been VERY selective. Unless you
can prove differently?

Yeh. Now you're going after a guy named, "Lend."

So here's a challenge for you, Len:

Let's see you set the example of "civil debate". That means no
name-calling, no little digs at other people's jobs, names, license
classes, ethnicities or religions, no making fun of their favorite
modes. It also means clear distinctions between facts and opinions.

Please give us the entire listing of what is correct.

Please issue the proper and correct stage directions so that
all may act upon it without error.

Please, your holiness, lead us not into temptation of the
terrible independent thought!

All shall be as you ordain, all shall be right with the world.

And it means behaving that way even if someone disagrees with you, or
disproves some claim you make here.

Yea, verily we shall all strive to act in the manner you have
shown us as leadership, your holiness.

Go ahead, Len. Show us how it's done. I'll follow if you lead. If you
choose to behave the way you typically have done here for the past 7
years or so, I'll just ignore you.

Oh! Please! Not that! To be ignored by the Holiest of Holy Men!

I stand abshed with head bowed before your majestic divinity
and humbly ask forgiveness for having the temerity to express
independent thought.

Jim, I think this pretty well answered any "questions" about Lennie's
ability or willinginess to be "civil".

Steve,

The use of name-calling, insults, and other personal attacks is often
an indication that the attacker does not have a counterargument.
Rather than admit that he or she is mistaken, the attacker tries to
divert attention from the facts. We see this in the very first line of
Len's post:

"(Holy man, mad as heck and not taking it anymore)"

and continuing all through it.

Also, this sort of behavior tries to get the person attacked to reply
in kind. If that happens, the attacker has "won" because he or she has
dragged the attacked person down to the attacker's level, and has
avoided the actual subject of discussion completely. The fact that the
attacker was wrong is lost in the noise.

So your use of words like "Lennie", "putz", "loser", and "idiot" (to
name just a few) actually gives Len exactly what he wants.

It's like the situation where a child argues with a parent over
bedtime *at* bedtime. If the parent argues, the child "wins" because
bedtime is, by definition, being extended by the time spent arguing.
And the child will do more of the same, because it "works".

Replying to Len in kind teaches him that his methods "work". Indeed,
replying to him at all teaches him that.

The solution is obvious.

Yah. I kind of miss how he used to call me stupid! ;^)

Some folks have a very unique way of calling you or accusing you of
something, all-the-while being up to thier necks in it themsleves, albeit in a
more, uh..."subtle" way.

And they can call me anything they want as long as they don't call me
later to dinner!

It works wonders, Carl. Since implementing a disciplined screening
protocol the noise level has dropped about 30dB here. Most of the
messages I see actually pertain to amateur radio policy.

Question of the Day, oh noble sage of the brush: If "disciplined
screening protocol" has been implemented, how do you know
what is "noise" and what is not?

Are you reading by means of morse code?

Ahhhh, the world awaits enlightenment from your words...!

Oink.

Freudian slip? From mortgage problems? Negative cash flow?

He needs to call "9-1-1" complete with all those dash numbers.
