Tedious bickering
 

Davar is steaming drunk ATM

(IMHO)

David

No sir. I rarely drink. Thanks for nothing.

[QUOTE=davar55;245765]Yes, that might be a delightful result, but ewmayer at least thought
before he contributed his useful post.[/QUOTE]

Go and kill someone from the mad hatter's tea party
and make yourself useful.

There are enough lunatics ruling this asylum already.

God

I don't think it necessary to react to the
stupid chldiishness you repeatedly display.

See OP.

I've given up responding to your posts as well.

This thread and all other threads in which davieddy has posted
should be reexamined by the moderators and/or supermoderator.

His submissions/postings are extremely suspect.

Ignore list. Learn it. Love it.

[QUOTE=axn;246144]Ignore list. Learn it. Love it.[/QUOTE]

Totally disagree.

Moderator involvement and banning is suggested.

Don't knock it till you've tried it.

But, if moderator involvement is what you desire, each post has a report icon (to the left). Click it and provide an explanation. No need to meta-post on the thread itself.

If you go back to your post #20, then my intended constructive,
relevant albeit not heavyweight post #21, you might realize why
I am slightly astonished by your quite unnecessarily stroppy and
negative responses.

Bearing in mind the amount of (by and large) good-natured banter
we have exchanged recently, I have to say this reaction is
disappointing to put it mildly.

How could you interpret axn's post as anything other than a
diplomatic way of suggesting that the two of us give it
a rest for a bit?

Because of posts 22 and 23.

[QUOTE=davar55;246137]His submissions/postings are extremely suspect.[/QUOTE]

I feel the same about yours, frankly. But if it bothers you, just put him on your ignore list.

Post #22:

I don't wish to repeat my post #23 here, but it was motivated
by your witless, snide and quite unjustified remark above.
I had even admitted to not yet having read the entire thread.

I will concede that #23 probably had folk scurrying for their
ignore button and/or men in white coats, but I can explain
every bit of the surreal juxtaposition of images contained therein,
why I was not in the best of moods even prior to your post, and
why my thoughts were on Alice.
BTW is the Mad Hatter's Tea Party from Wonderland or Looking Glass?

Another repeat performance by davieddy. Banning is indicated.

I have never, nor would I ever have or ever will, made a personal
attack on a poster, just as you wouldn't. Your responses to what
you consider to be my most outrageous math and science claims have
been fair (though I would not say always fully correct) and never fluffy.
As least you are trying to give us the benefit of the doubt.

[QUOTE=davar55;246456]Nothing surrounds, bounds, or borders the universe.

As I explained, the universe is a 5-d sphere.

Three regular spatial dimensions.

A fourth different small measured spatial dimension which
is the Riemann fold of the other three.

And absolute time.

Check my monograph.[/QUOTE]

An extraordinarily deceitful posting.
You remove the quotation marks and the citation of
the legendarily witty Peter Cook without making it clear
that you haven't quoted my post verbatim.

Contrast that with the "Physics Problem" thread in "Homework",
where you quote my considered post verbatim, with the addition
of "sic" after every sentence.

You make me sick.

Your self delusion is truly staggering.

At the risk of sounding as obsequeous as you, I would consider
the standard of moderation here second to none.

I freely admit that the tone of my posting shows a wide
variation (which I hope is considered a good thing). Mods respond
frequently and appropriately. As you have been advised by two
highly respected members here, your childish "Please Miss,
he's teasing me: ban him" is completely uncalled for.

David

[QUOTE=davieddy;246484]Your self delusion is truly staggering.
... ban him ...
[/QUOTE]

As long as the moderators continue to allow personal attacks such
as this one, I can only reiterate: this poster's postings should all
be reviewed as a prelude to a ban.

I don't see a personal attack. I see a succinctly stated negative opinion. Use the ignore button.

How often would I have appreciated that option in my

Please refer to his post. The specific word delusional is clearly his problem.
Not yours or mine.

On the OH, if you agree with him on that point,
you're welcome to join in his merriment.

Back for more Eh?
You really are a masochist (if I'm allowed to use that
word in the Homework forum).

Special Brew required.
Saturday night after all. Norwich drew today.

PS I don't expect anyone except Paul to solve this post in its entirety.

Maybe more to follow, but this will do as an emergency precaution.

Yep. This is the prescription I was looking for:

Whatever that nonsense means.

Rereading tends to allow one some added self-moderation.
Instead of burying the hatchet let's try to let bygones be
bygones. If and when you provide any sort of positive
analytic feedback to my two most controversial threads / posts,
perhaps I can also ignore my earlier responses to your perhaps
less than polite style of posting.

I think both of us (let alone everyone else here) are tiring of
our bickering, especially since it is sprawled out over numerous threads.

If I could click on Paul's attempt at a link to "the Davs Sandpit" I would.

Meantime, my OP was not intended to be entirely frivolous.
The situation is desperate but not serious.

David

Can we at least agree on our interpretation
what this is all about?
[URL="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i5Tiqv4Irjs&feature=related"]After midnight[/URL]

Sorry I never get your skewed references.

Nor your musical inserts. Nor your YTers.

I prefer directness, i.e. with minimum use of
quotes or links off-forum.

Just my own reaction, if no one else thinks
the same.

Have a drink.
Or aren't you old enough in that civilized country of yours?
Perhaps you could buy a gun and shoot yourelf.
Or me.
That would be doing a favour.
Switzerland is notoriously expensive.
Queue Sound of Musak clip.
I should be so lucky.

Yes I'm old enough, never developed the drinking habit.
I wouldn't want to start into anything I'm reading into your
self revelations, especially not in public laundry or by PM.
But our conflict is over. Perhaps you want to relook at some
of the threads (puzzles,etc) I started and discuss those there.
I don't like getting personal in the mforum.

Too bad our making up
had to be re-threaded.

We're now in total agreement.

Especially about cosmology.

I suspect that many here are slightly disappointed with
the (apparent) absence of female participation.

Was that an attempt to drum up custom?

[QUOTE=davieddy;248098]Who is your mentor

Neither I'm sure.

I would venture to guess that my most influential
predecessor was probably Ayn Rand, whose groundbreaking
small book Introduction to Objectivist Epistemology was the
most encapsulating summary of the relationship of mathematics
to the encompassing spectrum of all human knowledge.

Wonderful book.
