I did not lose the discussion, I opted out of it when you lost the capacity for debate and began resorting to personal attacks.
You opted out because you were getting your a rse kicked.
I made one comment and you stopped debating and got personal…there wasn’t even an element of debate. If someone making personal comments at me equates to “getting my arse kicked”, well what can I say…you seem to get yours kicked a lot, though not by me.

The thing I dislike about all of this is the little clique that you, wordsworth and panda are a part of.
And your answers are always so smug and righteous. And then you pat each other on the back at your smugness.Oh not the old “clique” chestnut, please. :roll:
You have several people, not just myself, panda and Words, that disagree with your point of view. That does not make us a clique. But I see you’re getting personal again…why?@terry wrote:
Neither one of you has a valid point to make, but that’s not my problem..it’s yours .
What you mean is that none of us has a point to make that agrees with your view. If it doesn’t fit with your point of view, it is invalid. Well enjoy talking to yourself Terry as with that approach you’ll find that pretty soon few, if any, will want to debate with you and the only people who will respond will be those that want to goad you.

Terry!!!!! Shame on you!!! First of all don’t drag my name into your personal arguments when I’m not participating.
Secondly I have longed for righteousness ever since iniquity lost its sheen, thank you again.
Thirdly thank you for putting me in a clique, I had adopted a posture of splendid isolation in my late forties but it outlived its usefulness. Now I belong once more!!! And with Panda and jen_jen!! We’re like a left-wing Terry, Terry and Terry!!
Fourthly your critique of my back patting technique is most welcome, I was aiming for a grope. Must work on my reach-around.
Fifthly you mention three of us then say “neither”. I know precise use of English is your claimed forte, so perhaps you could identify which of two out of the three you meant.
Sixthly thank you for relieving me of the suspicion that I might have born down on you too hard, now I know my assertions are not your problem I can give myself some lattitude.
Gawd bless yer guvnor! Yer a diamond geezer!!!!
tsk
Su, if your attention to detail is that consistent, you and me should definitely take on a project or something . . . . . 8) :lol: 8) :lol: 8) :lol: 8)
