Shame on you. you have falsely alledged that there are many more facets to this issue tan presently exist. I find your listing of these points amusing and creative, but the phrase "interesting, but not very" comes to mind. Your post (With reference numbers attached): 1) There are the allegations that he attended Ohio State and received a degree. 2) There is the claim that he did not do any such thing. 3) There is the phone number for Ohio State. 4) There is the claim that people did in fact call and found no record of his attendance. 5) There has been no denial of the allegation of his falsifying his record. 6) This claim is easy to refute, if it is not true. Yet you would set the bar at notarized proof. Well get it yourself. But don't argue that the answer to the question is not relevant. That is nonsense. 1 & 2 are the same thing from each side. 1 is documented in an SEC filing while 2 is an anonymous unsubstantiated assertion 3 is available in any phone listing of the area. Whoopie! 4 is, like 2 an anonymous unsubstantiated claim, and as we have discussed before, it is very unlikely that a person off the street would be able to get such information over the phone. It appears that there is no record with the SEC of negative information in this regard. 5 is quite amusing. Why would anyone in their right mind waste their time responding to an anonymous allegation on Yahoo? 6. Same as 5. I never said anything about notarized proof. I simply said that you will need more than anonymous posters on Yahoo to make it relevant, and I suggested that perhaps a memo from the registrar would suffice. I recall that you have a real problem with the burden of proof. Well, you still have the same hurdle here as on PABN: You are bringing forth the assertions, therefore the burden is on you to offer the proof. As much as you would have me prove innocence, I really don't care one way or the other. To me it is a non issue unless you can offer something better and so far you have not. Plus, you never answered the real question: What remedy would you want? Flog the man, have him wear a scarlet letter, have shareholders tar and feather him? What penalty should be assessed if these charges are proven?
