Come on boys, let 's stick together,
Joe Chris
male (order) female (change)
consensus, opportunistic
(any perceived weakness in the other (likes the feedback)
party is jumped-upon, like the claim
Joe makes that Chris violates his own
propounded rules)
action, language,
( 'attacks ' with words_reacts without (is likely to explain things,
thought of consequence ) is more context aware,
' knows ' his stuff )
sameness,
" trying to make logical sense out of your
(Chris) screeds... " is IMHO (Kenneth) a
statement likely close to what is by the
' general ' understood for logic. The defi-
nition of the term which Joe apllies is
violated by Chris, so joe strikes back.
Joe, you have to admit, ' accusing ' Chris that his politeness dropped like a
rock and challenging his concepten in that way (without any attempt to dis-
cuss the matter) is IMHO_ even fundamentalistic. And expecting as much,
betrays a prejudice.
But anyone on this list who has gotten the idea re left/right; sameness/ diffe-
rence must be excited_you and Chris are proovin ' ' live ' that there is a gen-
der bias for memes.
Look at your posts, they stand full of male/ female formulas, responses, ex-
pressions...
We better argue what is the usefull truth of such arguments...in the context
of the subject please...
Regards,
Kenneth
(I am, because we are) disappointed
