Hi Buzz,

2. Take my statements for what they're worth. I simply don't have time to get into documenting every little thing I say as I seem to be expected to do and others are not.
It would indeed be unfair to nitpick someone to death by asking him to support every tiny statement no matter how minor, but you're in the habit of making broad statements on significant matters without offering any objective support. This is a violation of rule 4 of the
Forum Guidelines,
Assertions should be supported with either explanations and/or evidence for why the assertion is true. Bare assertions are strongly discouraged.
When finally backed into a corner by actual information you're in the habit of issuing a summary of your views without any supporting argument or evidence, as you just did in point 1 of your post, and this is a violation of rule 2,
Debate in good faith by addressing rebuttals through the introduction of new information or by providing additional argument. Do not merely keep repeating the same points without elaboration.
Because of the continued guideline violations I'd like to request that you please take your discussion to the
Free For All forum until such time as you decide to abide by the guidelines. Thanks!
