Re: Citing Sources
There should be an exclusion. You don't have to cite the source if it is from a government funded one. For example, my aircraft carrier dimensions I posted came from a U.S. Navy public domain where there is NOT a source given. As tax payers, that is OUR information that we paid for and it belongs to us as a whole (sort of like, if you as a tax payer, were to ask me to provide information about the space shuttle, I would be obliged to provide it unless I felt I couldn't because it was in the interest of national security or company proprietary information)...government information that is of public domain doesn't require a source to be provided other than it's from the government.

Re: Citing Sources
How is it a weak point? If it's a government document it usually cites a department...not a sole source...what can anybody do about that? I already said it should be referenced back to a government source..and thats not even necessary...Lets use an example; "A space Shuttle Main Engine High Pressure Fuel Turbopump weighs approximately 500 lbs."
...now that information is available through the library of congress....but you have to fill out requests to get engineering drawings of the pump that you don't have a chance in hell of finding the actual weight in a bug note out of 30 engineering pages of drawings and there are dozens of engineering releases pending revisions by dozens of engineers...now how the FUCK are you ever going to find out
the actual source of one of those drawings that changed the weight?

Re: Citing Sources
"I think I've expressed my own views about this adequately in other threads. My only request here would be that anyone considering bringing up the story of Lot and the city of Sodom please review a previous thread starting with this message. You will note that the Sodom story is not adequate to make any case that homosexuality is immoral. You will also note that the discussion left many hurt feelings and apparently resulted in the exit of one or two creo members."
You have ten minutes.

Re: Citing Sources
Look asshole, I gave you a chance. I said where I got the aircraft carrier info from and there is no "source" by name except it was from a government agency....now if you want to go all anal retentive on me over it, get ready. I ain't going to put up with your bullshit. If you really want to me to, I can go back through your post history and find out how many times you submitted material that you didn't really write.

Re: Citing Sources
You didn't expect me to start combing your posts? It's not my problem...you have to go find out what you were talking about now and quote sources. You've been put on the defensive. You just admitted the quote was from you, cite all your sources.

Re: Citing Sources
Well, lets do it this way, is Berbury the admin or are you? I explained it already...why is Burbery involved? it seems to me that the admonishment goes to burbery for butting in where it had no business.

Re: Citing Sources
O'Kayzers...I've not exactly seen that the Admins stick to their own rules here, so naturally I'd be confused.
