SER: Isn't it relevant in the sense that it makes it possible that someone knew PAD's name. Let me play the lawyer for a moment:
Let me stop you right there. Since I can barely follow what comes after the nonsense that follows that colon, I don't think I'll let you "play the lawyer," no. It's "possible that someone knew PAD's name?" Seriously? You're going to put your name to that? That's adorable. Go back and re-read what I wrote.
JB pointed out that [PAD] was most likely wearing a nametag. I don't see how you can dispute that other than by insisting that you just don't like what you're reading.
And I don't know how you can miss the fact that I don't dispute, in any way, that PAD was wearing a name tag. Again, please go back and read what I wrote, now, and note why that's not a relevant point.
Me: Are you permitting respectful inquiries on this matter to be seen, and potentially answered, by Mr. O'Neil?
SER: Wouldn't the question basically be something along the lines of "Did you endorse a truly boneheaded decision that pissed off JB and arguably lessened the enjoyment of many readers" or "Did you lie to JB when you said you didn't do that"?
Well, since I haven't written the question(s) yet, I guess we won't know until I post the question(s) on Mr. O'Neil's site, now, will we? No matter how I wind up phrasing it, though, I guarantee it'll be more respectful and more eloquent than either of your offerings. Thanks for trying to read my mind, though. Dionne Warwick is looking for new talent, I think, if you're looking for work.
It just seems like an attempt is being made to use O'Neil as a blunt instrument.
I'm assuming you're speaking metaphorically here...but, geez, after the shameful use of language above, I'm wondering if you're literally accusing me of picking up Mr. O'Neil with my hands and hitting Mr. Byrne and/or Mr. Hansel with him. I'd like to point out that I would never do such a thing. That would just be wrong.
I would like to ask Mr. O'Neil a question or two. That's all.
