My comment is not a non sequitur, inasmuch as no one save for you

other person who read the quote had concurred with you, then you may
be right that my post was a "non sequitur."

Pretty small data set, isn't it?

It's a much larger data set than the data set supporting your
position.

It is, isn't it? Guess I should get out and poll some relatives of
victims, huh? They'd be the ones who really could say whether my
statement had any credence, as it was they who I was talking about.



As it is, I'd peg it more
as one person making connections where none really exist, rather then
assuming it's a "fact" that such a connection exists.

How can you make a case that the context of 9/11 is not evoked in any
way at all with the original quote?

Because it didn't occur to anyone but you.  And as others point out,
it's actually quite a poor description of the events of that day.

C'mon, Neil. If you have to reference some poor dope who jumps in to
bash me whenever he sees an opportunity to do so, well, at least don't
dress it up as "others."

Hahaha, thanks for the laugh. If I did as you say, I would've jumped
into lots of more threads. As it is, I've gotten my "Fhead Fred
bashing" out of my system and at this point I mostly feel sorry for
how pathetic you've become. But as this episode shows, I still find
it fun to bash you when you deserve it.

You've got some stellar tacticts here - bash someone else when you
can't defend yourself. I ain't no dope, BTW, just one of the more
vocal of the many Fred-bashers. Does it really kill you that much to
see someone agree with something I said? Do I really get under your
skin that much? I hope so, because it says a lot more about you than
it does me, you might want to analyze why you're bothered so much.


Yes, the guy didn't mean to make a

connection, and I have never said otherwise, but that does not mean
that when you mention being buried in cement in New York that there is
no evocation of the people who were buried in cement in 9/11 is
nullified. Did the guy mean that. Of course not. Does it mean that the
evocation is therefore not resonant regardless?

Yeah, it's not resonant with anyone who has read the quote save for
you.  You clearly resonate at some Dark Star-hating frequency that is
quite different from what others see.

Heh. Say, why don't we go back over to that thread and wrangle about
your comment, as it's a doozy and I'd love to hear you explain it.

Again with your deflection tactic - when the heat's on, fan it
somewhere else.
