  Suddenly Chris makes it personal (was: Nothing personal, but...)
 
(...) You're creating a false dichotomy; by forcing Shiri to assert a hard line of distinction--knowing that such a hard line is by its nature impossible--you are attempting to say that no distinction can exist between "too much," "too little," and (...)

  Re: Child rearing (was: Nothing personal, but...)
 
(...) I do agree that as much as possible the "punishment" (consequences) should be related to the "crime". The consequences for mouthing off could result in no TV for the day if the consequence is actually "since you refuse to be civil today, you (...)

  Re: Child rearing (was: Nothing personal, but...)
 
(...) Why is there a limit? What is it? What is it based on? You go on to say some pretty commonly accepted stuff, but I'm not infering what this limit is. (And simply by being popular, doesn't make it right.) (...) It sounds like you think I'm (...) (23 years ago, 22-Jun-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Is it.....?
 
(...) Hmm.... I guess it depends on the contest. I mean, take the following three examples: 1) The Lottery. This is self evident-Winning is the only thing that matters. If you don't win, you don't get nay feeling of satisfaction or (...) (23 years ago, 22-Jun-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: When is it appropriate to "take it to email" and when isn't it?
 
(...) Well, would saying that mean that we would advocate keeping it public? I wouldn't. I'd just advocate dropping it, not spreading it into the public domain. (...) Again, are you suggesting that keeping it public would be better than keeping it (...) (23 years ago, 22-Jun-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

(...) Aint diversity wonderful? 8?) (...) Are you disappointed because you didn't get the answer you expected? Or just surprised? (...) Um, careful with the out-of-context quotes, Larry. I said "always a reasonable course of action". I then went on (...) (23 years ago, 22-Jun-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: When is it appropriate to "take it to email" and when isn't it?
 
I think we have discussed this before(?). I remember thinking that we are constrained by the attributes assigned to the "partisan" in the final para on this page: (URL) do not think the text I quote answers you question, because I doubt there (...)

  Re: Nothing personal, but...
 
(...) It is the source of the collberation data I am taliking about. I have said this so may times, I fail to see how you could have missed this. Anyhow, I am actually fed up with all this now as it is clear to me that Larry is unwilling to justify (...) (23 years ago, 22-Jun-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: When is it appropriate to "take it to email" and when isn't it?

I (...) (23 years ago, 22-Jun-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
