bloodyminded Posted December 8, 2010 Report Posted December 8, 2010 (edited) I think you're absolutely right about Waldo and Wyly being the same person. It's pretty sad that Waldo needs an imaginary poster to pseudo-agree with him. I think it's pretty sad that the Canadian and American literacy educations don't allow people to recognize thoroughly different styles of writing, including not just (admittedly) easily-faked differences in word usage, but vastly disparate methods of syntax and sentence structure. They're not the same person; or he is profoundly talented, an irritant which you no doubt would be loathe to admit.

The_Squid Posted December 8, 2010 Report Posted December 8, 2010 You just know he sits there constantly hitting refresh! You're tied with Waldo as one of today's top posters.... pot... meet kettle... hypocrite. I like how Waldo schools the deniers with facts and they suddenly grow a set of internet-forum-testicles and attack Waldo for.... posting... Quote

Aside from the fact that I don't think you should sell yourself short--you're as smart as Waldo, which is no insult to either of you--I agree that maintaining the ruse for so long would be a real feat. The only obvious faker I've seen here--the one who was unquestionably a faker--was the guy who pretended to be a hardcore Muslim fanatic, preaching jihad, and boasting about "my three strong sons," and so on. He was a right-wing troll hoping to "prove" how rotten Muslims really are. And some people here believed the lie, of course. Probably the same ones confused about separate posters with entirely different styles. That is, all their opinions--on every subject, without exception--are thoroughly motivated by their deeply-rooted politicization. Too bad.

I like how Waldo schools the deniers with facts and they suddenly grow a set of internet-forum-testicles and attack Waldo for.... posting... Actually, Waldo had a 20 post lead on me. But it's a new day, so those posts are no longer added to his total. You're not that bright are you? Quote
Shady Posted December 8, 2010 Report Posted December 8, 2010 Also, we were talking about his one minute response time. He's the one minute man. Which is also applicable to something else! Quote
Oleg Bach Posted December 8, 2010 Report Posted December 8, 2010 HOPE they all get one of those bad Mexican ice cubes and spend there time on the toilet..at least some cleaning of the environ would take place..and maybe they would lessen their own carbon foot print by being immoblized by a germ.

lukin Posted December 8, 2010 Report Posted December 8, 2010 like the generals of Miramar or China the N Korean leadership retains power by looking after the military first at the expense of the civilians...like all other military supplies food will have been stockpiled, rice is very storage friendly...and as in any major war food shortages will hit both sides... Mirimar?????????????? .and he has an amazing tolerance for debating banjo pickin' idjots, i have them all on ignore they're not worth my time.. Do banjo pickin idiots know where Mirimar is? Do you, waldo? Quote
bloodyminded Posted December 8, 2010 Report Posted December 8, 2010 Mirimar?????????????? Do banjo pickin idiots know where Mirimar is? Do you, waldo?

jbg Posted December 8, 2010 Report Posted December 8, 2010 This thread is fast becoming as juvenile as the Climate Science thread.

The_Squid Posted December 8, 2010 Report Posted December 8, 2010 This thread is fast becoming as juvenile as the Climate Science thread. You're right.... once the posts started flying about how many posts Waldo made, it got pretty stupid. clean coal? An oxymoron and a red herring to the debate at hand (like Waldo's post count, his self hating leftiness and all the other "let's not bother with debate, let's attack Waldo" tactics used in this thread). http://newmatilda.com/2008/09/24/why-clean-coal-oxymoron Even if all the technical problems can be solved, the extra energy required for the process will mean that carbon dioxide released per unit of energy will only be reduced by about 70 per cent. We need to go much further than this by 2050 to stabilise the global climate, so it makes much more sense to invest in genuinely clean forms of energy like wind, solar and geothermal. There are no credible estimates of the possible cost of carbon capture and storage, but industry sources talk openly about it adding 50 per cent to the price of coal-fired power. Studies of the prospective renewable supply systems indicate they can achieve greater reductions at lower cost — and much faster. Quote

Shady Posted December 8, 2010 Report Posted December 8, 2010 An oxymoron and a red herring to the debate at hand Really? Because Waldo was championing China's clean coal efforts as a way to reduce emissions. already covered... China is building new more efficient coal power plants... and actively engaged in replacing old, less efficient coal power plants. Wow, sounds pretty effective. I wish people like you and him would allow North America to do the same. Quote
