[Alumni-chat] Re: honorable and sincere?

[Gerry Bello]

It's really clear from this last post that you either dont have any reading comprehension skills whatsoever or you are completely selective in what you choose to consider in a conversation.

The man claimed to be his own son, who went to school in 92, gave a physical description of himself, and not one person who was there remembers it.

That is a bad clumsy lie.  Provably false by anyone who

a) was present in 1992
b) has an alumni directory

Matt and I fit under a)

Art Dole fits under b)

You want to ignore this and defend this dishonesty. Why?

Yes... we all have multiple email accounts.  I have 5 myself.  I only use 1 for here and most of my personal (including Antioch) business.  

To keep changing ones identity in an internet conversation is dishonest.

So much so that there is a term for it:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sockpuppet_%28Internet%29

So what is up with you?  Is it that you cant read? or that you dont read?

The bourgeoisie may blast and burn its own world before it leaves the stage of history but we are not afraid of ruins. We who ploughed the prairies and built the cities can build again, only better next time. We carry a new world, here in our hearts. That world is growing this minute."

> I do not find having a little shade in one's character a cause for such uproar.  Yazz made a strong/maverick and honorable post regarding his perspective and you guys are nitpicking it to death.  And invoking the honor code for some clowning just because the perspective and shade of his post is different than your own.  Give me a break.  Learn something and challenge it if you don't like what he said but don't throw darts at him or me because I clowned back with him.
