above as I am not as patient as I used to be lol! As you can see, they believe that if they continue to post FALSE information even when everyone knows it is false, some of it might stick. That is wishful thinking even when they realize most people do not even want to engage them anymore because most people DO want to see serious issues discussed, intelligently.

Pretending not to understand the difference between a Quote and Paraphrasing, giving a synopsis of what someone said, only makes THEM look foolish. I say pretending because it's hard to believe that anyone DOESN'T know the difference. This particular poster never addresses the content, but keeps repeating the same old nonsense. Most DUers are very familiar with this kind of tactic.

I wonder if it ever occurs to them that they are HELPING get the truth out by repeatedly kicking a thread they clearly wish was never posted?

Thanks again for your comment, I am happy you are here AND posting
