Not so fast there -- he wasn't right about a Freeper saying that the shuttle was on fire over Las Vegas.

As I said, you have to parse every word he says, in case he changes it mid-thread, which he has done on more than one occasion.

Aren't you the big boy, providing the Cliff Notes for people, without a link or Todd's twisted posts.

Even when Freepers PROVED that picture was a fake,

The picture/video snapshot was not fake (for the third time)... it was a real picture. It was inaccurately described as the left wing. That made the picture a hoax.

What's so difficult to understand about that?

Damn - now I gotta go reread the whole dang (original) thread again. ;-)

I always thought Todd said the shuttle was losing pieces over California. Like I said - I'll have to go reread the thread. Maybe I didn't read carefully enough. My comment to him saying he was "right about this one" was in reference to him apparently being correct that the shuttle was losing pieces over California.

That part was NEVER in dispute; it was the fact that he said it was ON FIRE and that it EXPLODED.

I don't know. Why don't you ask Todd; he's the one who was pushing it as a picture taken during the flight and showing damage to the shuttle.

And in case you missed what I said, even when it was explained to him in PLAIN ENGLISH, he still refused to admit he was wrong about it.

In all fairness, your remark to her was pretty innocuous. The timing of it was more the support than the remark, but no reason to hold it against you -- that would be petty. I mentioned it because I'm trying to see how vociferous the counter-reaction to what turned out to be truth was. It seems just to have been a one-on-one TLBSHOW vs HOWLIN.

How did you manage to post all those URLs and still NOT link to the thread where you claimed that the picture was of shuttle damage?

He said it was on fire over Las Vegas and that it had exploded.

It wasn't and didn't.

If you want to back him up on that, go right ahead.

Oh, poor Toddie, right? Can't take care of himself. Well, I guess not. And I'm not the only one who tears into Todd for his inaccurate posts. He gets his butt kicked quite regularly around here for his spamming of threads.
