You would say you remembered anything, if it served your purposes.

Find it
Prove it

ps- if I can find 10 people who will agree that you would remember anything if it served your purposes will you accept that? :-)

Hi Poet,

Just time for a quick note to you on this topic, since I am going on X vacation for a while.

Here was my comment to X:
"Wasn't it you who argued ad nauseam that nothing could be personal except in 3D, X?

She argued the nature of what is (isn't) personal extensively. It was an interesting discussion and helped me and probably others, clarify how or to what extent the person is reflected/present in their postings on SI. I remember arguing that there is no difference, except maybe to the extent of how genuine a poster may choose to be. That it varies from person to person, just as it does in 3D and other forums. X had a vastly different view. She did tweek her view, in my opinion, and probably became more clear in her position as we all did. I see no benefit in going thru it all again.

She is now playing her old game, trying to get the whole thread to focus on "Its all about X" the depressing sequal to "Everybody loves Raymond."

I have no intentions of looking for a specific statement that she challenges us to find. There are probably dozens that would qualify my comment. I said she argued Ad Nauseam about it and everyone who was involved would likely agree. So I am not going to attempt to "prove" anything for her. I have no clue what her standard of proof is and suspect it is pliable.

The people on the Bush thread will not be happy if she gets a bunch of people to drag thru her issues ... again. And of course she (and maybe cos) will claim again that all these people just seek her out for this kind of stuff.

I am imposing a notoorabout X on my self for x amount of time as of this moment. She may test that and I didn't want you to be left wondering.
