Despite the fact that I am an Ancient Philosopher and BoardAd is a snot-nosed kid, we have some things in common. He was the one who expressed to me our feelings about General Comments III:
“I don’t want to say anything there because it might break the flow.”
Yes, if you want to break an old man’s heart, just break the flow. For me, Comments III is a dream come true.
You see, what I always wanted to do was show pro-whites the right attack strategy. Year after year I exposed the soft underbelly of our enemies to the point where it became a standing joke: “How many minutes will it take Whitaker to make a complete loon out of this guy?“
They watched me do it. They ENJOYED watching me do it.
Then they refused to use any of my techniques.
It felt a little like I suppose people do when they have a dream where they are running away from something but they seem to be running in molasses.
It is, literally, a nightmarish feeling.
1) Pro-whites keep saying they want to convince others.
2) I convince others. They see it.
3) Then they ignore me.
I am an egotist, just a little different. It amazed my wife how I could take personal insults and not miss a beat. One reason I loved her was that she showed all the resentment I should have shown: She was entirely on my side.
But she never understood my particular type of ego. I am not that concerned about what people think of ME.
But don’t mess with my IDEAS.
My IDEAS are my life’s work. So when I read Comments III, I see a group of people in a CONSPIRACY to get my stuff out.
I never understood Jehovah. His whole concentration seems to be to have people repeating and praising his name, though, as I have pointed out, Jesus never said anything about Praising God, but only about LOVING God.
But then again, I’m not Jehovah. Reading a group of people who are actually exchanging EXPERIENCES about the Mantra and the thinking I have offered pro-whites for decades is a joy I never thought I would experience.
So keep doing what you’re doing in Comments III. Bob the Praiseworthy LOVES it.
So does the snot-nosed brat.

Go ahead and post on General Comments3. I post what I’m doing hoping that you will make suggestions as to how I can be more effective.
How making general comments a monthly or at least a quarterly thing. GC3 is getting long and since I moved into the 21st century by getting a blackberry I’ve found that it wears out my thumb scrolling down to the bottom.

I will redo the general Comments format.
At the end of April I sense big design changes a foot.

gator, I figured out a few weeks ago that you can type the letter B to get to the bottom of the blackberry page. Saves a ton of time.

Well I’ll be darned!
That works great. Now maybe this blister on my thumb will go away.
Thanks Peter Rabbit
