Roll on the 20th June

Like I said..you have no idea how much effort that took. I actually had to consult some rap lyrics for the flow, and couldn't "keep in character"...it was a bit of a failure...but Dave, consider this:

That kind of over-the-top, completely irrational and unmeasured response is why many of use started giving Archer's claims and methods MUCH closer scrutiny. As I have mentioned many times, I have the "blue" version of his site cached locally, as well as his slides and stuff.

I can consult the historical evidence and see the patterns. Hell, PurePower claims he was Archer's physics go-to guy and was a participant on the private soapz discussion.

Look at my very first post. It was very supportive, but suggesting that he ratchet down the fire and brimstone because it was non-condusive, offputting and he had probably scared away the most dangerous anyway...to go on and show us what was to be seen.

Then you know, more Insane Clown Flipping...very manic as someone else *observed* (who was then of course, castigating for commenting on what could be clearly seen..as opposed to what was imagined. Funny that)...

So as time rolled on, I was like look guys, something isn't right here...andit became an attackfest. it appears that calmly repeating the observables, the FACTS is anathema to some here...which then trigger a very strange set of reactions...all suprisingly similar to tactics of "the Man":

1. Obfuscation
2. Vilification of alternate points of view. In this instance, alternate meaning "Contrary to FE/OUness"
3. Personification of arguments
4. Calls for censure of opposing, or merely critical thought

I apologize for disturbing you so, Dave, with the aforementioned vitriol.

I was merely playing to the audience in an attempt to be understood; rationality and civility seem a giant fail here so I atttempted to go Roman, as it were.

And I still stand by what I said; my false heat will be NOTHING compared to how bad it is gonna get, and that helps no one. After a day or so, it should cool down. I like to prevent as opposed to mitigate and it just seemed to me to be a reasonable (uh-oh...there's that "fag talk we discussed before"*) pre-emptive way to avoiding all out  WordWar here.

*this paraphrases a line from a great movie many people haven't seen but should have: Mike Judge's 'Idiocracy'.

Sorry, this isn't constructive.
I can hear a little voice in my head saying "you're breaking your own rules, Bodhi!"* for digressing into non-constructive argument but someone** needs to rent out the movie "A Beautiful Mind". and rethink their last post.

At least, he's giving it a go. At least he's building it. At least he doing something.

(this is not directed specifically at you DrWhat)

I keep reading these same types of comments in this thread. Why are you guys so impressed that he is just doing "something"?

Because it's more than we've seen you do.
You have never understood the difference between listening to someone talk about building something, and actually doing it?

Oy vey!

Why do you assume that us skeptics are not doing anything? Why are you willing to forgive Archer for lying about his past accomplishments? Don't get me wrong, I am willing to forgive Archer for lying to us but he must admit that he lied and mislead us all for months before I can give him a free pass.

Then let's see yours please.
Buy a right to bitch by doing something.

I did.

BATMAN HI ALL

Can any one here provid a website (not U-TUBE) SO I CAN POST VIDOES UP FOR ALL TO SEE? ( File sizes from 50k to 5mb )

Vuze.com is a good site to upload/download and watch great quality videos that can be very long and large ( over an hour long ). If your video is low quality and a little bit shabby , Vuze's administration will remove them. I urge anyone with halfway decent devices to record them in HD or close to it and use Vuse, so people like myself can see this stuff in Quality Detailed videos. If I come up with anything good, this is my plan. Hope this helps.
