It is not possible to have a discussion with tallhappy.

Interactions with tallhappy go like this. You post something. He contradicts you, usually without any substantive argument, and say you don't know anything about the subject. You point out that in fact the overseers of a not-completely unknown institution thought you knew enough to grant you a Ph.D. in the subject. You ask, in turn, what his credentials are. Chirp chirp chirp. You post a great deal of data rebutting his naysaying. Chirp chirp chirp. Then he goes off on another thread, smears you, and (of course) proves your already low opinion of you by not being Mensch enough to ping you to his libel.

It doesn't take long to realize there's no there there in a tallhappy discussion.

Excuse me, but are you really talking about menschen here? Who developed this system of "you can't talk to me on a discussion forum", anyway? After years --(and I've been here since '98, though I had to start over in 2000 because of a i-stalker, a real one) -- on FR, the only "don't ping me" I've ever heard was in an evo thread.

You should not make available so much personal info. I am speaking from hard experience.

Well what about you RWP?

Not to take away from your accopmplsihents (and I would not want to do it even if I could) you are a perfect example that academic attainment does not inure one from all the foibles and failures of humanity-logic. If you were able to see it, you might get a chuckle. Its the Irish thing, I know Sigh, my family has some Irish there too.

I mean you thought ROUND UP would take a Wolf out!! LOLOL And what was that other chemical?? I never even heard of it till you mentioned it. And you sounded authoritative on the drug too.

I consider it a bonus not to be pinged. These threads aren't really dialogs.

Actually, you are describing your MO. Above is an example. You simply want to talk about your greatness and rag on me. You actualy do what you are saying, not me.

Perfesser, you are a laughingstock because you are dour and pompous with no joie de vivre and especially with no understanding of what you seem to believe most and hold dearest to your heart.

And seldom if ever do you ever talk about science except in incredibly general and trivial ways. You talk more about how stupid creationists or IDers are than you ever talk about actual science.

Stop being such a sad sack. Cheer up. A merit award awaits you, I'm sure of it.
