Ken,
<flatts-why don't you explain what you mean by her 'duplicity'? Your statement-you explain that>
I really didn't want to get involved with this. But ... Don't you get it???
Cheeky Kid nominated you "Thread Moron of the Month". See here: techstocks.com
Check out who responded. Then who showed up here the next day:
<Cheryl, I reentered this thread because CK called it to my attention -- knowing that I have been talking to company CIOs about this issue since 1978.> Edwarda
This is what flattsville meant by "duplicity".
How Cheeky called this thread to her attention, was by nominating you "Thread Moron of the Month". It wasn't because she's been talking to CIO's since 1978.
She wasn't the only one from the "Thread Moron" thread who posted here that day. Besides Edwarda there were two or three others who posted the same day. They left and only Edwarda stayed, because she was responding to each and every public post made to her.
I honestly don't care whether she posts here or not (as much as you and bearcub think otherwise).
I value information from people "in the field". But I questioned her initial contribution to the thread, knowing the day before her initial post here, she said "The entire thread is a nomination [for Thread Moron]."
I knew what had transpired, before I made my initial post to her: techstocks.com
I didn't go into detail about what I knew, because I don't like to get involved with these mud-slinging, personal degradation posts. I had hoped someone would catch on.
She said she knew Ed Yardeni for years, and that he had changed his tune about the severity of Y2K. He hasn't. I posted an excerpt from Ed Yardeni's Aug 10 newsletter, which was a direct contradiction to what she said. Her response was to delete those sentences [from the quote I provided] that didn't support what she said.
Maybe she knows Ed. Maybe she doesn't. Maybe she's an anlayst. Maybe she's some high-level manager. Maybe she's a housewife. She's obviously bright. Who knows what she does? I don't. And, honestly I don't care.
I just view her input - differently than others might. Only because of this "Thread Moron" thing. Had I not known, I probably would have responded differently [if at all].
Edwarda's comment "reentered this thread" is also duplicitous. She never participated on this thread previously.
Believe what you want. Like, I said. I don't care.
BTW - This is the only other post I made to Edwarda: techstocks.com
