Old Post from MsJack's Blog

Post by _Valentinus »

MsJack,

I wanted to personally thank you for such an astoundingly informative blog post concerning the ignoramuses over at CARM. I love how insightfully aware that they are of intricate details such as the examples you show in your blog. Unfortunately, I can't link to the actual thread.

Have you contributed over there since this? I don't prowl over there often because their brand of apologetics reminds me of the kindergarten playground with yard monitors who have their backs turned.

Ms. Jack had an interesting interaction with Wade Englund at the last FAIR debacle. Kerry Shirts caught some of it on film HERE.

Valentinus ~ The posts you refer to may be found here and here. For the record, I later came to regret the "short bus" analogy, and talked about this here.

I haven't participated at CARM since the day I was unceremoniously booted off the moderating team, in March of 2000 or so.

Scum you got me again!!!

Though I did like the Chris Smith & Brian Hauglid clip. So I don't feel totally used.

Wow. I thought this ship had sailed. Nice to know it's still part of the arsenal. : )
