Do you really want examples?  I'm supposed to drag out past stuff from
Sorni to suit your curiousity?

Yes, I really want examples, *from the post that Frank responded to*.
If Bill is wrong, or mistaken, or has his facts wrong, then refute
*those* things. A blanket suggestion that Bill is wrong all the time
isn't any better than him saying the same about you.

I don't believe you do want examples

Yes, it's very easy to imply that someone is a liar when you can
safely hide behind your keyboard. Internet courage is free.

..rather you're trying to put the
onus on Sorni's critics to do some work.

If you make a claim, no matter what the claim, the onus is on you to
support that claim with facts. The same as for anyone else, including
Bill.

But in this case, we're reporting on large amounts of information that
are readily available to you in this group.  So read all his posts in
this thread, and goole him and the word "calculator", and then read
his posts in threads you find there.

I was talking about a single post. Shall I quote my query to you
again?

Read his stuff about unemployment in the Carter administration. Read
his stuff about economic performance of the US economy under different
presidents in the last 20 or 30 years.  

I don't recall that being in the post about which I queried. Maybe
you could quate that portion of the post, since that part didn't seem
to come through on my end.

 If you don't see it after that, I'll spend a little time dragging out
some old stuff.

Conveniently dragging some irrelevant stuff in to cloud the issue does
not make your point. Start with just the stuff about which I asked,
and then, if that other stuff you're talking about is somehow
relevant, we can tackle that.

Frank declared what Bill had written to be "mostly wrong" - OK, now
support that contention.  That's all.

He has, in this group.

No, Frank has not yet responded to that post. I think you are trying
to obfuscate by going from the specific to the general, then
refocusing on the specifc bits that are convenient to your argument.

Try just focusing on the post on which I queried Frank, and leave that
other stuff behind until or unless it is relevant.

There's a public record of it.  Make a
concerted effort  to find it, then maybe some of us will spend time
helping you. But you'll find it easily enough.

I'm not interested in that bit of hand-waving, John. If you are
uninterested in actually addressing the question I posed, then say
so. There's no harm in not wanting to answer a question I actually
posed to someone else.

E.P.
