The quality of Ray's discussion
Your input here is way to ambiguous so I will stop.
Ray, the level of your discussion is well below what should be required for continuted participation in a thread in this area. You are still here for two reasons:
1) You make a pretense of offering evidence for your argument and make a pretense of answering (some) of the rebuttals. I guess that qualitifes as making an evidence based argument. Just not a very good one.
2) You amuse an number of the other posters.
If you become more annoying than amusing you will start to lose privileges. Keep that in mind when choosing to ignore what others are saying.
(as an aside: I believe you agreed to recognize your error regarding the LLM -- a good faith gesture would be to post a closing remark in that thread )

LLM location.
Message 110
Is the end of the LLM thread.
As a small note: I was not asked to intervene here by anyone. I choose to because of the large number of complaints about you ignoring points that you need to deal with.

Points
Thank you for that Ray.
It can be difficult to keep up with multiple posters.
I haven't had to deal with that so you may take this suggestion with a pinch of salt.
How about taking a bit of time to review the multiple posts and seeing if you can condense the common points out of them? From my reading I'd say that frequently the same points are made by the same person. We have reduced this "piling on" recently but there may still be some of it. It can be handled if the points are reviewed and each answered once for everyone. That could save you some time.
On the other hand the various posters sometimes do see different issues. Those I guess you just have to deal with as well as you can. If you are stuck for time it might help if you acknowledged a point that you don't have time to get to (as you did in the LLM thread).
My 2 cents worth.
Thanks again.
