  Re: Just Teasing, I Have No Intention of Debating Any of This...
 
(...) Sorry if I haven't been clear. I don't have any expectation that the market will provide me whatever I fancy, in this market or any other. What my expectation is, though, is that for it to be a free market, there cannot be unreasonable (...) (22 years ago, 25-Mar-03, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

(...) Penance. No, to pay penance you have to admit you sinned, I believe. Scott has made no such admission, and in fact, according to some, he's worse than ever. (22 years ago, 24-Mar-03, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

(...) Harsh... Not very PC of you to point that out. I must say, for a sec there, I thought RM was talking about HERE in his quote about it being war... for after all, he does not play well with others here, does he?

As far as I can tell, all land on this planet is either claimed by some particular government (and thus ought not to be hived off without the acquiescence of that government, or of the landowners or at least of (...)
