The technique of demagoguery (commonly used on Goanet) usually is: Create a straw man with a few false statements / assumptions. Then tear it down, while sounding intellectual and articulate.?? Mario observes: Since Gilbert frequently seems oblivious to what he writes, it becomes incumbent on me as the only voice of reason, truth and peace on Goanet to hold up a cyber-mirror so he can see himself. Here is one very recent example of his building a straw man out of whole cloth and then trying to tear it down: http://lists.goanet.org/pipermail/goanet-goanet.org/2009-April/176382.html
