Jeff. Trouble is Jeff that it is never your own theories that are being tested and falsified. Your modus operandi always seems, to me, to be to try and falsify TGM, for example, by advancing arguments to the effect that "If HK is right, then why is this guy doing something that I, Jeff, think is an indicator that HK may have been mistaken? A more acceptable approach, to me, would be to seek clarification should you have doubts which you have trouble reconciling, rather than directly contest those issues by giving evidential examples of some mistake that you think you may have uncovered. As 6bmike says "Somewhere a hat needs to be hung". As I would ask "At the foot of whose bed do you leave your shoes?" __________________ IB "My only handicap is me!!!"
