You are very likely accessing some unfair cut and splice of some of Jewels own handiwork in a gratuitous post ABOUT me. In his myriad ad hominen string of insults in his last several posts (none, of course, which are attested to by any references!), I did not recognize ONE--NOT ONE--which remotely resembled any position I had taken, or a single idea I presented! Of course, all my posts were in the open and for public consumption, so Jewels could have indicated his characterization at the time of the posts and striven to argue his "point".

However, generalized ad hominems can only bring denials rather than "proof" (which all my responses to the original posts constituted!). This is the reason that Jewels wishes to revise lost arguments by taking ancient material, adding his own changes, and presenting them in some ad hominen form as an attribution to me.

Perhaps you were remembering this post. All I can tell you is that, if it wasn't referenced--it is for the reason that I did not say anything at all like Jewels is pretending I said.

I have come to expect this manner of "argument" from him. There is not much that I would compare with it for demonstrating an absence of basic decency and honesty. It is an attacking style which I loathe and detest. It is just a cut and paste of his own insane posts ABOUT me revigorated into a general smear with the advantage (so he believes) that the scattergun nature of the attack will make it impossible to defend.

What he dosn't understand is that no defense is required to lies and misrepresentations.
