I would very much appreciate your opinion of post 145. This is the broad point I was scrambling to get at.
Your posts have been questioned because you contradict yourself, ignore some posters valid questions regarding a comment you made, you do not clarify your position or you make statements that are not a part of the subject being discussed.
Contradicting and being extreme have two different definitions. Two examples of this off the top my head is on your original thread about NY, you stated you never watch tv. so you wouldn't know better. I read on several threads your objection to movies or television shows that you have seen recently. On the other thread, you had claimed you never go anywhere and that is why you didn't know better. Then elsewhere, you write places you have been. On some threads you have insight on other countries. If your sincerity about not knowing about the rest of the country had been real, how can you have a deep comprehension of other countries traditions and lifestyles?
It is too bad that you had that thread in question pulled because if you re-read it in its entirety, I think you would understand why there are questions. All this makes it very confusing as to where you really stand.
Please dont confuse the questions from posters with a personal attack. It was you who called me the idiot, when you were unable to respond to my conclusions and questions. I never followed up on your attack. Conclusions drawn and some reservations about you stem from your comments.
