Fair enough.

I've addressed others besides you. You yourself mentioned my disagreement with Bucky.

That is why I do not see any reason to go ahead and link it to you, let alone continue this.

Masking the refusal to present any evidence with a personal attack and poisoning the well. Don't think it ain't noticed.

I'll let you know when I want your advice on posting. I don't try to start trouble and much prefer to disagree agreeably. But hey, insinuations, a refusal to present support for your bald claims often elicit rudeness from those who cannot answer the questions reasonably.

In the meantime, this advice of yours reads simply as a very verbose and convoluted "shut up!"

"That which may be claimed without evidence can be dismissed without evidence" ... or serious consideration.

Be advised, I will still reply when and as I see fit, here and elsewhere, your desire to shut up dissenting voices aside.

Hey everyone, did you notice something? I thought I heard something, but I am not sure.
