Fringe crackpot John A. Davison has this to say on his pal Terry Trainor's laughable 'disussion' board:
quote:
I predict they will ban me at evcforum. They don't handle criticism very well. I'll be darned if I will retire voluntarily. They will have to cut me off. What I can't understand is why they keep going after me. Why not just declare me daft and let it go at that, don't you know? They just can't refrain from getting personal, especially Scott. and some guy in Germany
The bolded parts I found particularly funny.
The projection that this old coot exhibits is phenomenal!

Also came across this:
"Also, the XX human I described was also a male. The undeniable fact is that the female (XX) genome is capable of producing both sexes."
In a meeting of the minds (Terry, Ilion, salty), salty made the above statement....
The comments were about whether or not Eve was capable of parthenogenic reproduction....

The bold italics were not mine. This is Scott's doing, I am sure
Why, yes they were. I should have thought that was obvious. But there was no italicization. This is italics, this is bold.

I stand on my comments.
Of course you do. that does not make them correct.
quote:
If Scott would read (he is a confessed spot reader) my Manifesto he would find complete documentation for the experimental proof that the female is all alone perfectly capable of producing both sexes.
Oh sure. In a handful of special cases.
quote:
I also document this in a paper which now resides in the Documents bin at Terry's forum. It's title is "Evolution and Metaphysics: A Convergence Through Parthenogenesis".
I tried to open this latest essay, but when my browser said "done" all I had was a blank screen. Prophetic?
quote:
At least Terry, until recently at least, tolerates differences of opinion without resorting to the kind of epithets characteristic of Scott Page. salty, the "old coot"
Poor John Davison - he dishes it out at the drop of a hat, but gets (or tries to get) all indignant when he is the recipient.
Poor fella.

Re: viewing salty's doc @ terry's site

Right click on the link and select "Save target as ..."
if your network (or ISP's network) is busy a dropped packet can cause the Word viewer in IE to show a blank document. Saving is more robust.
Should have tried that. But I am not sure if I want to waste the disc space...

the Worm and pals do the Dummy Dance
Terry Trainor, the newly re-welcomed 'Salty' and self-professed 'darwin attacker' and admitted non-scientist Ilion all make some rather asinine statements here:
