Basically, it comes down to this. I made a promise to my family get off of here, but continued to break that promise. There is sufficient momentum for the birth certificate issue to where any further research is unnecessary.
The fact that Hawaii refuses to authenticate or acknowledge producing the COLB that the libs insist that is real, along with the statements made to me by Dr. Alvin Onaka in late October, pretty much nixes any hope by the opposition that a real Obama 2007 COLB exists.
The libs can refute my research all they want, but it's not going change the reality that they are arguing about a nonexistent document.
It is they who are on the wrong side of reality, not me.
My last post says it all:

If anyone believes that the one and only scan image was produced by what appears in the Factcheck photos, then there is seriously something wrong with their eyesight.
There is nothing wrong with the eyesight of scores of FReepers who saw shadows under the letters on the Factcheck photograph of a "real COLB."

The image above is the photo I took of a real COLB using the same make and model of camera as Factcheck, except that I had a real COLB. The one on the bottom is the image with the shadows. Those pink arrows are pointing to them.
I would sincerely love to hear how the opposition explains those, but I gotta go.
I also leave with the challenge I made but never taken:
Make a real scan, naturally and honestly, that looks like the alleged "scan image."
No one can. It's impossible for several reasons. The colors of this image are so far off from the actual colors contained in a real COLB scan, that you cannot get there without extensive manipulation of the color curves.
Secondly, the background image and the text were deliberately subjected to heavy sharpening using an Unsharp Mask - but they were not done at the same time.
Lastly, that "funky" border, as one of my favorite critics described it, will not be exactly reproducible from any scanned COLB border in existence.
"Close" only counts in horseshoes.
No way. No how.
Oh, you may get close after playing around with all of the controls in Photoshop, but you will not get the border pattern right.
I know because I reproduced it (middle image), and I know how it was done - it was made separately and added to the image.

But, if you think you can do it, more power to you.
Rather than ragging on my research, which is what I do better than anyone, go ahead and do your own.
It's easy.
Oh, I forgot. You have to get a real COLB to do it.
Isn't it funny that none, nada, zip, zero of my critics has ever made a real COLB scan from a real COLB in over a year since I began my research, and actualy replicated what I did.
They'll make up some excuse for not reading all of my research report, like it was "too painful to read," and so forth. Then, they will do their own thing which is not remotely close to my thing.
Well, don't be discouraged: Factcheck never had a real COLB, either.
I would like to thank everyone who supported me and those who know me will be passing along the latest news on FR to me.
BUT, I am never logging back on FR as Polarik again.
That's a promise I will keep.
Good Luck and Best Wishes.
Thank you for your excellent research, Polarik.
LOL -- did the same for Mrs. Sionnsar, but I ping her to threads of interest to her. The youngest sionnsareen is also registered, but I think FR is too slow-moving -- text, tweet and talk (chat) seems more her speed.
We both have desktops (I’m a cheap b@$+@^d). She is on Facebook with her Philly high school buddies and also plays a game called “Farm Town.” FR takes me away from my recruiting work sometimes, so I do need to cut back a little.
You will be missed.
It is my hope that you will find a way to contribute, without having to deal with all the headaches of this particular screen name.
You’re an embarrassment!
Thank you.
A College Professor told me once “Whatever you choose to do in life, do it with Passion, and Excellence will follow.” You fit this mold my friend — and though I’ve lurked more than posted your posts are always ones that I’ve paid particular attention to. A sincere thank YOU. DQ
As a professional user of Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, etc., I’ve learned a lot from you.
As a birther, a conservative, a lover of liberty . . . that is to say, an American, I’ve learned even more.
Thanks for your dedication and hard work!
OMG WE haven’t had an Opus in quite some time. Ta Ta
Oh, and good luck :-)
OK, I'll bite. What are your other screen names?
I came here during the election because I was so distraught with a possible B.O. win. I wanted to be around likeminded people. Your work has been awesome! Please leave the door open to come back if/when something really big breaks.
Don’t let the door hit you in the ass. You used FR and now your bailing.
Were you threatened in any way to cause you to stop?
I ask because recently the gentleman who was behind the "Obama File" also threw in the towel.
I'm just curious.>
Are you sure you CAN quit? You may need to attend a 12-step program! :)
Good luck, thanks for all your work, and see you down the road.
Wow, what a completely rude thing to say
- - - - - -
Thank YOU!
And here's a FReeping Farewell ...
Ping! Ping! Ping!
