You say you can't understand technology and hate it, but to stay in the game, you will have to acknowledge that we have switched wooden bats for aluminum.

-- Pain

This is getting WEIRD! One commenter quoted an economic statement I didn't make, I have said repeatedly that I don't get into economics much any more. Now Pain says I hate technology.

I saved the Space Telescope. I don't think Pain did that. I have an Alcor bracelet on my wrist. I doubt Pain does. Now he lectures me on aluminum bats!

I have personal trouble DEALING with PRESENT COMPUTER TECHNOLOGY, leaving SysOps and BoardAd to deal with me like criiple in that area. How on earth does this mean I, who have been trying for a decade to get readers to consider the technological and biological revolution of the coming century, HATE technology?

Everything I actually say is being forgotten. Things I DIDN'T say are being thrown at me.

Bob-

With all respect, I say that you have indicated many times you like hard talk, that "niceness" precedes the standard brushoff or stab in the back. A sissy you ain't.

You aren't even afraid of admitting:

<blockquote>I have personal trouble DEALING with PRESENT COMPUTER TECHNOLOGY.</blockquote>

Diebold is "present computer technology."

This is the topic I said you were avoiding.

Party hacks haunted graveyards late at night before Diebold, but think how easy it is to cheat now. The ability to change election results without trace and without possibility of a recount is revolutionary. The rules have changed.

You are the only one I know who is both pro-white and who has the PRACTICAL experience to comment on this.

If you still worked for Ashbrook, and you knew one of the best computer whiz kids, what would you do?
