Edwin:
What's "uninformed" about that?
Carroll:
What's informed about it? He provided nothing in the way
of substance... he didn't inform anyone about anything...
Thanks for explaining why you make so many errors
Where's my error here?
"Uninformed" does *not* mean "he didn't inform anyone about anything"...
Very good, Snit.! Unfortunately... it has nothing to do with what I was
talking about :(
So you did not mean what you said. As I noted before, Steve, if you just
want to say you worded something poorly and did not mean what you said I am
open to that. Why did you just not admit that right from the beginning.
The sad thing is you feel the need to post tons of obfuscations and BS to
hide your error... look below where you dishonestly pretend to give a
"language lesson". Bizarre and dishonest of you... over 350 words of off
topic silliness from you:
Here is today's language lesson (in 3 parts, so pay attention... if you
able;)
1 - I said that Donald had an uninformed attitude:
"And uninformed attitudes like this"
-- [Note: If you need a definition (and are able to comprehend what you
read;), this is the way I was using the word "attitude":
at?ti?tude (t-td, -tyd) n.
2. A manner of acting.] --
2 -Donald made statements regarding Mac programs... statements that contained
no support at all:
"I surely hope someone takes you up on learning to write OS X programs, since
so few are able to create useful OS X programs. I say this because there is
such a paucity of good programs for the Mac, which I attribute to the paucity
of Macintosh developers, as well as Apple developers' long tradition of
refusing to give their customers those features they ask for".
3 - I commented that Donald's attitude or "manner of acting" while making
such statements was "uninformed" due to the fact that he provided no support.
Edwin then asked me what you quoted above - "What's "uninformed" about that?"
("that" being Donald's attitude or "manner of acting"). Edwin obviously
asked because he wanted to know why I said Donald's attitude or "manner of
acting" appeared to be "uninformed" to me. I replied with what you quoted
above - " What's informed about it?" (the "it" being Donald's attitude or
"manner of acting". I then correctly pointed out that Donald's attitude or
"manner of acting" had him making statements and not showing any support for
them, which is why I continued with: "He provided nothing in the way of
substance".
Fact: Donald provided no support for his statements.
I then followed up with: "... he didn't inform anyone about anything..."
Which was a true statement and completely relevant to the statement I made
regarding Donald's attitude or "manner of acting".... but, more to the
point, it answered the question Edwin asked about "that" (again... "that"
being Donald's attitude or "manner of acting").
I can give you language lessons whenever you need them, Snit... don't be
ashamed to ask me;)
