Let google be your spell checker, SloTard. TRY to type "catagory" into google, and it will suggest the right spelling and your idiocy level to you.

Had he been referring to the physics in the same vein I suspect he would have written something like "Because the physicos will get you?" He did not, however, so we're left with the fact that the response he offered was one referring to legal authority, which is what you bought into. Later on, however, you were horrified to find that Lenz wasn't quite the cup of tea you thought he was, so you changed streams in mid-horse ever so deftly in an attempt to cover up your fox paws. But, too late... the damage was done --- >In fact you were in enough doubt about physics involved to set up your >fatuous "experiment". --- "Fatuous"??? And 'experiment' in quotes??? That's nothing more than a vacuous attempt to mount a good offense as a defense. It wasn't I who was in doubt, the experiment was performed in order to prove that extracting energy from a conductor using the method Joel suggested, and which you endorsed, was impossible and, much to your chagrin -since you're a politician and not a scientist- it proved exactly that. Of course you've tried your damnedest since then to distance yourself from the fiasco, as any self-serving politician would, but the fact remains; the hook is firmly set and you're not going to get away. --- >Once again you have been projecting your own inadequacies, trying to >conceal the fact that you made a fool of yourself by claiming that >someone else - me in this instance - had revealed a comparable lack of >insight, and presenting your own fumbling around as if it was some >kind of lecture demonstration. --- I've never claimed that you lacked insight, although I must say that the ridiculous length to which you've allowed your bogus defense to grow causes me to think that perhaps I should have claimed it. All I claimed, in the beginning, was that you were wrong in supporting Joel's claim that energy can be extracted from a conductor by wrapping a solenoid around the conductor's axis, and I supported my claim by performing an experiment which, to this day, you pooh-pooh but can't deny being valid. --- >It's funny, but irritating. --- Good.

Dimbulb discovers text-chopping. Most adults are aware that almost any text can be mined for out-of-context quotes that can be chosen to mean whatever the miner wants them to mean. What Dimbulb has chosen to ignore is that I've got quite a lot of text covering stuff that I've worked on over the past thirty years which does document what I used to know, and provides a reference against which I can test my current understanding. Since dimbulb does seem to be functionally illiterate, one can understand why this insight might not register on whatever it he uses in place of a brain. -- Bill Sloman, Nijmegen |
