You know how to read I assume?



He can read a little. It's that "comprehension" thing he has trouble with...
especially when the truth disagrees with his goosestepping predjudices.

I weep for your ignorance. You ranted on about 12 cents even though you
quoted the $350 mil figure. And now you're referencing a blog that's week
old info. Why is this relevant to anything?


Heh... it wasn't me that attacked you Jeff!
It wasn't me that questioned your reading skills...Jeff!
It wasn't me that questioned your math..Jeff!!

Now Jeff...... the idea is to be a poor winner and a gracious loser.

Following that theme.... Bwahahahahahahaaa.... do you ever look stupid
now!!!

Don't know how to break the news to you, but most of the western world's
students score higher than the US's in the standardized math tests. Won't
even mention the eastern world :) Old news. Perhaps Mooron is an
exception, can't say, didn't read the originals.

Crow? You divide $350,000,000 by 280,000,000 people and come up with
12 cents per person. That makes you pretty stupid, Mooron. Quoting a
week old blog doesn't help your case at all.

I haven't made any claim at all, except that the 12 cents per person
number is old data and is off by a factor of at least 10. You seem to
have great difficulty understanding that.

Jeff Morris January 6th 05 01:10 AM

I didn't have to - you already did quote the upgraded number of $350
mil. You still don't seem to realize that the 12 cents number was
based on 35 mil, not 350 mil.

I haven't been trying to defend the US, I've only tried to point out
your math error!

If I wanted to defend the US, I could point out the large number of
personal donations, corporate donations, and military aid. I also
wonder what part of the $250 mil from the World Bank comes from the US,
or how much the UN, which is largely US funded, will give. How much
debt will be forgiven, will tariffs be adjusted, etc?

Also, although disasters of this magnitude are a global responsibility,
its only fitting that neighboring countries with strong economic and/or
cultural ties would be the most generous.

And finally, making comparisons based on isolated snapshots is
meaningless. Recently, Germany and Australia increased their pledges,
until then they were behind the US. What's the point?

I looked at all the sites. You're the one who kept screaming "12 cents"
even after you quoted the $350 mil number. An obvious blunder on your
part. That's all I was pointing out. If you ever sober up you might
understand.
