-- I see that against your best intentions, your weak will has led you astray and you've decided to join the fray. Yes, of course I'm having fun. I love a challenge, and why else would I spend some of the time allocated to my life trying to elevate the ignorati to at least some modicum of awareness? John Fields
-- There's nothing of substance in your reply. John Fields
-- No, what's really happening is that you're trying to evade your own gaffe with subterfuge.
-- More gobbledygook. You make claims for which you have no evidence and then invoke imaginary groupspeak as precedent. If you were at all concerned about the group's wishes then I suspect you'd stop posting here or, at the very least, get honest. However, since such seems not to be your wont I can only conclude that your invocation of imaginary groupspeak is designed to justify hiding your anathema to even constructive criticism. John Fields
-- Indeed. The US has about 1% of its population behind bars. John Fields

It is a big nation and though some of us are civil, there is still a lot of work to be done. I personally think that the number of prisons built has not kept pace with need, nor the punishments handed out. Look at recidivism rate for a hint. And the fact that they pump them out the back door as they send them through the front door, because they are so overcrowded that they cannot even keep the assholes who did commit real, violent crimes in for their sentences. Fuck that. We need a new devil's island. Violent criminals should never be allowed to set foot on free soil ever again.
Hey, I know.... Guantanamo!
I guess I was wrong... Slowman is lowest >:-} ...Jim Thompson

I love to cook with wine. Sometimes I even put it in the food.
First identify what you think is a gaffe. You do have a habit of misunderstanding stuff that has been posted, and going off about what you think it means.
-- Bill Sloman, Sydney
People with better reading comprehension should be able to make sense of it. Get your wife to read it and get her to explain to you what it really means. she's obviously had a lot of practice at this.
Do identify the claim.
My guess about what the rest of the group needs is clearly identified as my personal guess, not any kind of groupspeak.
If you think I'm being dishonest, do specify how. Without the supporting evidence, the claim is in the same class as krw's habit of calling everybody who disagrees with him a liar.
We now know that krw doesn't understand the idea of external evidence, so he thinks that anybody who disagrees with him is both wrong, and knowingly wrong.
You are coming dangerously close to vanishing down the same rabbit-hole.
Your reading comprehension is letting you down again. And an "anathema" isn't something you can hide - if it's hidden it isn't an anathema.
-- Bill Sloman, Sydney
Jim guesswork is no more reliable than his ostensibly rational conclusions.
If you are out of touch with reality, you do end up looking very silly.
-- Bill Sloman, Sydney
-- If you're at all well-versed in the nuances of the English language, which you claim to be, the gaffe should be embarrassingly obvious to you. I think it is, and you're just vying for time, throwing out vindictive nonsense hoping that some miracle will come along save you from having to admit to your folly. John Fields
-- Your doubts seem to be predicated on your postulation that you're the spokesman for - and insulated by - the group but, with no substantial voter base, your claims are groundless. Bottom line is you just want to dodge the question because either a yes or a no will put you in your place. John Fields
-- Indeed, and Jim has decades of experience in bringing fantasy into reality with his world-renowned designs. You, on the other hand, have little to show for your life but sour grapes. John Fields
Sadly, you don't happen to be well-versed in the nuances of the English language, and what may strike you as a gaffe probably isn't anything of the sort. Be more specific, or crawl back in your burrow.
Well, you would like to think that, wouldn't you. Put up or shut up.
-- Bill Sloman, Sydney
uld only mean a resonant circuit is a feeble and unwarranted joke.
o make this defective claim, I doubt if the rest of the group needs your ra tionalisation. We already get a lot of nonsense to study, and more would be redundant.
As usual, your imperfect comprehension of complex sentences has let you dow n again. I can have whatever doubts I like without claiming in any way to be any kind of spokesman for the group. The group is perfectly at liberty t o disagree with me, and other members could have implored you to bore them to tears with pointless expositions of defective comprehension. I haven't s een any sign of it yet, but the thread has only got to ten pages on Google, so there's pelnty of room for it to expand even more.
Bottom line is that you haven't put up a question for me to respond to. Pit y about that - it's a bit redundant to dodge a non-question.
-- Bill Sloman, Sydney

Admittedly the ones I had the misfortune to use were renowned for being cra nky. Barry Gilbert's multipliers were a lot easier to use, and seemed to wo rk better, while the 4046 was a lot easier to use than the 4024/4044 combin ation.
Some patents, a published paper or two (one with 19 citations, though at le ast one of the authors who cited it hadn't read it carefully enough - earni ng me another minor publication). There are definitely some sour grapes in there, but fermentation is an art.
It's not a particularly impressive CV but since it includes places like EMI Central Research (the closest the UK ever came to Bell Labs) it probably t rumps yours. Jim's ideas about academic prestige let him boast about giving lectures at the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology (after Barry Gilbe rt found out what a joke it was and pulled out) so he hasn't done all that well either. He seems to have excelled himself in getting into MIT, and wen t downhill thereafter.

As usual, you demonstrate that you really are not worth anyone's time, as any time spent on conversing with you is truly wasted time.
AlwaysWrong in vintage form. Since he shows no sign of understanding what conversation involves, it's a particularly fine example of his contribution to the group.
-- Bill Sloman, Sydney
-- I do, in fact, think that and actually, it's a fait accompli. Also, one of the rules - rather than nuances - of conventional written English is that an interrogatory sentence be followed by an eroteme, for which you've substituted a period. Surely just an oversight, but for someone who professes to be so proficient in manipulating the vagaries of the language, just another gaffe.
-- True enough about your doubts, but when you invoke the "we" and then go on to make unwarranted statements based on that imaginary association, your premise was flawed.
