To: abstract who wrote (62628 ) 9/29/2005 6:20:17 PM From: Sully- Respond to of 65232 "Your opinion that I posses a fervent belief known to you is as false as your assumption that your arguments are fact-driven." My opinion is based on your own documented words. Your profile has for quite a long time included the following under Favorite Quote: "perception is more important than reality ". You have stated as much on my thread as well. And your posting history clearly supports the notion that perception is clearly more important than reality. As you can plainly see my opinion is reality based. As for your false assumption that my arguments are NOT "fact- driven", I'll let my posting history speak for itself. It may be more precise to say my discussions are reality based, driven by facts & credible, independently verifiable evidence."The kind folks here have asked us to take our disagreements elsewhere and your thread would be a fine locale. Too bad you won't make it available." Ah, back to your (mis) "perception is more important than reality" gig again? You are not banned on my thread. As I already noted, you are free to post there any time you wish. All I ask is that you adhere to established thread standards. RE: "Whoa, you certainly do have a persecution complex don't you?" I stand by what I said. I was not the serial instigator or the purveyor of calumny as fact, which you have consistently been here. Yet as usual, the request to take it elsewhere was posted to me & the impetus was placed on me to get you to go along. In the past when the exact same thing has happened, the request has almost always been directed solely at me. That is reality based."Maybe you should just acknowledge that your perceptions are mightily skewed and that you can't trust yourself. But I bet you opt for denial." Paul, perception may be more important than reality to you. That however, does not make your misperceptions become reality. And your desire to project your faults on to me does not alter reality one wit.
