I commend you, Bot, for your Mother Theresa's org work and helping rinse down oil soaked birds. We obviously do not see eye to eye on Mormonism, but these charity efforts (I'm assuming that's what your participation in them was, charitable) are praise worthy. Good on you.
And regarding no blackberry contact for six months, oh the withdrawals must have been hellish. My sympathies in that regard.

You really must learn to bridle that anger, Scratch, you're losing composure (and with it, credibility) again.
For example, there was no Facebook "phishing" scam. A phishing scam is a criminally fraudulent process of attempting to get credit card numbers. My Facebook account was real.

Oh, it was? And what have you done to help establish this as fact? Or, do you mean "real" merely in the sense that "it existed"? Because we know for certain that you were lying extensively on it.

I didn't "spank" him--I'm not in to that kind of kinky stuff. All I did was try to explain clearly what it is thoughtful critics mean and what objections they will likely have to his line of reasoning. I've been around long enough to be schooled on those subjects by thoughtful critics like Tasrki and EAllusion instead of parrots like Buffalo. I'm just passing on what I've learned so that if Simon wishes to have a productive conversation on the subject with critics, he will understand the context in which he must do so.
Oh, and I must commend you on your successful distraction towards Simon. You are quite skilled at it. I wonder if Cassius has any courses for that sort of thing?
Actually, I have my suspicions that many of your tricks are journalist tricks used to extract more information and write juicy articles. I've recently been cautioned by my employer not to correct mistakes in the press about our product because sometimes that's a ruse for them to get us to reveal more.
That's General Leo. He could be my friend if he weren't my enemy. eritis sicut dii I support NCMO

Huh?

I think phishing is a good description of what you were doing. Not phishing for credit card numbers, but phishing nonetheless.

I've always thought thought of myself as more of a budgie.

Awesome - I love that some christians actually follow the teachings of Christ...mr belmont mocked my efforts and suggested that his tithing was all the charity that he needed to engage in so i am happy to see that not all members of the LDS church are as uncharitable and ignorant as him (http://mormondiscussions.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=18541&st=0&sk=t&sd=a&start=21)
Great job and i would love to hear about India, Calcutta specifically....
