hardware issues

—you might just be hard on your hardware. btw lots of computer stuff is presumed to have a product lifetime of about 2 years.

mis-speaking

—i suppose. however, on the web it is mentioned that a police report was filed in 2000, so tarshis could have heard about it then, and the people she was talking with are (to my awareness) not necessarily all those who recently came forward. these are all technicalities that can be worked on in cross examination, which is always helpful, yes. so a trial would serve a useful purpose if it were to be held. but the simplest explanation is still usually the best. one can of course build a conspiracy theory around a single quote, but then the conspiracy theory is only as strong as that one instance, and if the instance is easily retracted by a correction, ...

when dickinson came forward

—when did she come forward about cosby specifically? she states that cosby’s laywers had a role in censoring her second book, no lifeguard on duty (2002). apparently dickinson only came forward about the cosby story by name this past november 18? tarshis came out november 17? bowman came out november 11? buress gave the routine october 17? nancy grace sounds as if she is just giving her opinion of others’ collective opinions, and hardly seems to matter that much one way or another.

dickinson’s photos

— i personally am not convinced that dickinson is centrally important to determining cosby’s guilt or innocence, see one of my previous responses

your inability to post dickinson’s photos

— you may want to brush up on html img command and http/html in general. i learned http/html in part from fr, so perhaps you can do the same. as to fr selectively picking on you, i personally suspect it is more likely to be either an obscure fr policy issue regarding posting material from the websites you used, or an html issue. either way, i’ve been there plenty of times, other fr users have also been there plenty of times, and you are a html beginner, so i think there are apt to be alternative explanations for why some of your posts are not working well. the vast majority of fr users have also probably struggled with this kind of stuff and felt frustrated at times too. i know i have had those feelings in the past.

btw: qlad to see some “q”s back in your responses. that was qettinq annoyinq. lol

The 2000 police report didn’t claim drugs were used. It was claimed that Cosby put her hand on his stomach and nudged it towards his pants but stopped when she told him to stop. Tarshis’ statement means that there was no talk about drugging or rape because of any police report.

I’m the only one in my family who has these computer issues, and my family believes the way I am hard on my computers is by doing research and not shutting up about it.

ALL of this is just a bunch of people blowing on about their opinions. The one piece of actual evidence was Dickinson’s claimed photos, but they instead reveal big problems with her claims and with the claim that nobody collaborated on bringing forward false charges.

When the rule is “innocent until proven guilty”, the person who makes the positive claim (and thus would have any evidence that could be produced) is responsible to produce it. If Dickinson says her manuscript was censored then she should bring forward the original draft and the letters telling how it would be edited. Regardless of whether her claim of rape was in the manuscript, though, the fact remains that she said in the book that Cosby blew her off because she wouldn’t sleep with him, and now she claims that she DID sleep with him (unwillingly). Either she was lying then or she is lying now, or both.

Why is the media totally silent on that?
