by golly milton i really try to avoid these little tet-a-tet's but sometime
you get just a little too silly !!!
from the first time i met you, you haven always taken very strong
advocacy's which i have respected you for.
but then you will turn around & criticize and chastise someone else for
doing exactly the same thing you do (only because it is in opposition to
your perspective). you attempt to posture & subsequently influence, and then
turn around & criticize others for the same actions. you attempt to
manipulate discussion and then call others attempts to do the same illogical
and unethical.
attempts on anyone's part to advocate or influence their point of view
becomes "conspiratorial" if the position is not yours.
on one hand you say (and i quote directly from your text below)
" I apologize to all who I urged to get involved in this travesty"
and in the next message you post to the list you say:
" the Barcelona meeting looked like the same old people shifting the same
old battle to a
different level, and acting in the same old way. There was simply no way we
were
going to participate in the Barcelona meeting under those circumstances.
This
was made clear at the time. "
please don't try to tell me you are not attempting to posture & manipulate.
that would just be too hard to believe.
milton, i know life is a challenge for all of us but if you keep trying to
present it as a continual "conspiratorial tragedy" more and more people will
come to view you as "entertaining" rather than informative.
happy new year
