		Re: the metric system
(...) You know, I was going to comment on that, then I saw that you already had. (The part about Tim championing science, that is.) I almost fell out of my chair when I read that! :) I was half prepared to read "cubits." Or are we just being evil, (...) (23 years ago, 1-May-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

		Re: What's actually the task of the moderators on BrickShelf?
(...) It's hard to say on the face of it. The person might be just indulging in a typical historical "what if" scenario. Does it trivialize what happened? Not necessarily. Then again, he/she/it may be looking for DNA material to clone Hitler with (...) (20 years ago, 6-Sep-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.build, lugnet.off-topic.debate)

		Re: Ok, why such anti-American sentiment? (Was Re: the metric system)
(...) Seriously, I'm not sure what you mean: do you really want to debate the mediocrity of American culture? Since I've never been to Australia (and, obviously, have therefore never spent an appreciable amount of time there), my judgments as to the (...) (23 years ago, 3-May-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

		Re: What's actually the task of the moderators on BrickShelf?
(...) Thanks, though the lecture is a bit of a waste, I'm afraid - I simply hit the "submit" button and then noticed all the newsgroups it was attached to. Sorry to one and all, but there wasn't any way for me to fix it myself at that point. ;-) (...) (20 years ago, 9-Sep-04, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, FTX)

		Re: Lavender Brick Society
(...) Lots of people have said they are gay here on lugnet - doesn't seem to be a big deal. Of course, I suppose I'm used to my old home town of Long Beach, California, which had a greater density of gays than San Francisco (or did - don't keep up (...)

		Re: Help me with the math
(...) I think they lobbed a few petulant shells from U-Boats at us, but it is immaterial whether they actually attacked U.S. soil: they declared war on us a few days after the Pearl Harbor attack.

		Re: Help me with the math
(...) That has absolutely nothing to do with the point. Bush sold the war on the basis of "WoMD" (Weapons of Mass Destruction for anyone wandering by) and when Bush couldn't find any, he came up with the "bad man" excuse. Bait and switch. (...) That (...)

		Re: Help me with the math
(...) Look up the quote chain and you'll see I established "immenent use of WoMD". Basically, you are agreeing with me. All you did is weasel in the words "bad man". (...) You accept that lame explanation? You are satisfied with that? A shrug of the (...) (20 years ago, 9-Sep-04, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, FTX)

		Re: Help me with the math

I have some comment on the tip of my tongue about what you could be eating in the meantime, but somehow, (hint, it involves the President's last name) I'm not sure I can say that on Lugnet. _ :-0 - Is it still missing, by the way?

		Re: Help me with the math
(...) John said "Bush is brilliant" and that is what I am arguing about. Not "Clinton is an idiot". John is playing a game: Bush is not responsible for anything that has gone wrong, it's all Somebody Else's Fault. Essentially, he's trying to drag (...)

		Re: A question of remembrance...
Hi Dan, I've been following this part of the debate and specifically staying out of it, because I can tell when a cool-headed discussion turns into a hot flame war. Although this isn't a full-fledged flame war, it is certainly not a great debate, (...) (23 years ago, 7-May-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

It was Dubya's staff that rather willfully read into the intelligence what they wanted to hear, or possibly exploited what was there by presenting what the higher ups wanted/expected to (...)
