No, sorry, that's not "as you predicted." What you predicted was that we *wouldn't see anything wrong* with dominating the forum. If we don't believe we're dominating the forum, obviously you can't say we don't see anything wrong with it. > This means that she feels that the two of them > still have a lot of *slack* before they ever get > to what they consider "dominating the forum." > > On alt.meditation.transcendental it took Judy > ten years to make 17,337 posts.

Translation: Barry's worried because so many of those posts involve Lawson and me calling Barry on his crap. <snipped by Barry; restored> > > One way to ensure I didn't post as much would > > be for Barry to stop attacking and lying about > > me and other TMers here.

More than *two-thirds* of Barry's posts today and yesterday were attacks on Lawson and/or me. One thing's for sure: That proportion is only going to go up if Barry reduces the number of posts he makes. It should mean less crap for me and Lawson to call him on, though. In general, the percentage of Barry's posts overall that are attacks on *somebody* is very, very high, much higher than mine and certainly a *lot* higher than Lawson's.
