Really? When? You mean like your claim that *no* lifting beam is ever
supported at 25% or less of it's length?
;)


I on the other hand am never wrong..... I may have been given erroneous
info.. but I'm never wrong.


Ever watch 'Casablanca'?

Gee Whiz... I must have been subject to erroneous information again! :-)

Please explain precisely what the logic is for WASP England to maintain
a
Queen
and Royal family. Why doesn't every democracy have the same?

If you think England is WASP then you have not visited lately. Parts of
some
cities have become no-go areas for WASP's.
And you certainly haven't been watching any BBC news bulletins.

So, you are saying that England maintains a royal family at the
insistance of who?

BB
I never said anything about the Royal Family

... The Japanese culture is incredibly different from ours. I
do not find it at all incongruous for them to be technically advanced,
and at
the same time very backwards or even foolishly dogmatic in another area.
They
believe in living manifestations of god. You don't.

In other words, you and BittyBill-Bob want to think those clever little
Nips are still quite doofusses, so you can keep your sense of racial
superiority intact.

The universe is what it is, not what you wish it to be.

That admonition would best be acknowledged by you, rather than by Bill or
me. You seem to be the one in denial of cultural fact.

Am I the one claiming it's a "cultural fact" that all Japanese sincerely
believed their Emperor was a god?

No, nor am I. But you've flatly denied that some, perhaps most, of the
Japanese during WWII regarded their emperor as a one might a deity. This is
demonstrative of a closed mind and the inability to accept that not everyone
believes what you believe. This is the pinnacle of arrogance.

I'd be inclined to advise you to give up a losing argument, but your sort of
bull-headed arrogance leaves no room for self-doubt. So be it.

Hey Donal! Fix your clock, dummy!

Please accept my humble apologies. I hope that this post does not cause you
further consternation.

I've become used to checking the date & time. This was the first time that
the bloody time zone was wrong!!!

If you send me some money, then I'll buy a new computer. That would make
both of us happy.

Observe closely, class. Here's a major backpedal.

The original statement which I disagreed with: "The Japanese worshipped
their Emperor as a god."

No "some, perhaps most"... no "regarded as one might a deity"...

I'd be inclined to advise you that the truth doesn't care about who wins
or loses arguments.

Did you go back and re-read the prior thread and realize that 1- your
statements sound absurd and 2- you're agreeing with BittyBill/Bubbles
and decide to go into backpedal mode?

Actually I didn't spend any time thinking about this at all. Your arrogant
approach to everything you post is annoying and boring, and not worth the
time to respond. See ya.
