Such as, for instance: Person A says Person B said thus-and-so on another forum. Person B denies it and says he said this-and-that. Person A quotes the posts demonstrating that Person B indeed said thus-and-so and not this-and-that. That the kind of gotcha game you're talking about, Vaj, where you get caught in a deliberate misrepresentation, er, I mean, an inconsistency? (And then pretend not to know that there's an online archive of the posts in question and suggest there's something peculiar about the person who has caught you "saving" all the posts? Did you really think nobody here knew about Google's archive but me and thee?) or just > generic "games" for this to stop. It's an old, old pattern.

Great fantasy, Vaj. I hope it keeps you warm at night. ------------------------ Yahoo! Groups Sponsor --------------------~--> Get fast access to your favorite Yahoo! Groups.
