cpr's having a bad night, prefers "Loony Tunes" to "debunking"

greenspun.com : LUSENET : TimeBomb 2000 (Y2000) : One Thread

Well, looks like our favorite "debunker" has retreated after an apparently rough night.

I'll try to recreate the give-and-take at my local forum tonight. He's also made some contributions here at "the pit" as well. He's been a busy debunker, indeed!!

The fun starts with the 12/14 post on this thread. There he brilliantly answers the question "How do say 'meme' in Latvian" with a humorous anecdote. And ignores the German utility failure entirely.

cpr then got a bit huffy and demanded substantiation of some charges, and gets it, along with a few juicy references. Note the times of the posts.

He then gets righteous about how martial law is really a good thing, and takes some jabs at "THING" (sorry, read it for yourself) in the process.

Finally, after digesting selected comments by Koskinen, gets in a final death blow before declaring that he needs to go watch Bugs Bunny.

Two more weeks to go. The fun is just starting, folks...

Note how he deftly manages to "debunk" (read: avoid) Hamre's comments, as well. He's the master. I bow in his presence, and am sincerely flattered that he (good Texas boy that he is) graces my Milwaukee forum with his vast knowledge, good humor, and calm rationality. I'll dearly miss him...

C'mon back, Charlie. Things were just getting interesting.

Oops. His "debunking" of Hamre is found here< /a>.

Is any of this important to anyone? It is like eating straw....

-- W (me@home.now), December 17, 1999.

It's only important when you consider that cpr prides himself as being the foremost Y2K "expert" in the universe.

And, as in any debate, it's vitally important to understand the opposition's "argument". This is about as good as it gets.

In the end, of course, none of it is important. I post it for entertainment purposes as much as anything. I, for one, find it very amusing, indeed. My guess is that others will appreciate the comic value cpr provides.

Or not.

LOL. Good job Steve. CPR starts off ridiculing the possibility of ML, then after being confronted by one news article after another indicating that it is being planned, he takes the "Ah, well, we need ML in a major disaster" exit.

Looks like CPR is suffering from hoof-in-mouth disease tonight.

Conceptional Perverted Retard is getting more frantic in his protection of his views as the days progress to the end of this century... just who is this self-proclaimed, expert idiot? I did an extensive search of the Web, and can only find him on the Russ Kelley Associates, Inc. survey.... he claims to be able to program in 9 languages, but he can't "hot-link" his own threads..... hmmmmm. I suspect Russ Kelly found out he was a fraud, that may be why he is no longer included on the survey.

Oh.. doesn't he sell real estate?.... kindda like a used car salesman, but lower on the Darwinian scale.

cpr... your pal :-)

-- CT (ct@no.yr), December 18, 1999.


Yes, CT, cpr is/was (so he says) basically a real estate salesman (in DALLAS -- A WORLD-CLASS CITY!) before he took a hiatus to DEVOTE HIS ENTIRE BEING AND HIS PURITY OF ESSENCE to DEBUNKING THE EXTREMISTS and BUILDING A LIST (in two countries) OF ALL THOSE WHO DON'T ACKNOWLEDGE HIS OBVIOUSLY SUPERIOR INTELLECT!!! (I think he means us.)

He's the funniest thing on the Internet -- until he gets down to using those NAMES OF EXTREMISTS he's been collecting to build a list of PROSPECTS TO SELL REAL ESTATE TO and shows up on YOUR DOORSTEP one day with A REAL GOOD DEAL!!! Then it gets scary.

Until then, I look at him like Dr. Bronner -- the guy who would write pages and pages of stuff (in very small print) on the bottles of stuff that he sold who would go on and on and occasionaly interject stuff like "THE ESSININE SCROLLS HOLD THE TRUTH!" and "KUMQUAT! JUJUBES!" right in the middle of it all. The guy's good. (And if he could really program in nine languages, don't you think HE'D HAVE FIGURED OUT BY NOW HOW TO TURN OFF THE "CAPS LOCK" KEY?)

He's good. Or psychotic. SAFETY PINS! RUTABAGAS! VASELINE!

WHILE MOST.........A VAST MAJORITY OF THE TRASH TALK ON EY......IS JUST THAT.......TALK.........NOT ALL OF IT IS.

In the final days, it is clear that more and more of the extreme voices of Y2k are emerging or returning to the EY forum........Heller, Andy, Rainman you name it.

But what you see is not what you think it is there. The really dangerous LURK or post in buzz words few understand. If I did not know that "preparedness" was a code word for Survivalists until recently, what else don't we know. All the silliness of the NWO, Aliens, Comtrails (VANISHED in the last three days, showing that the whole forum is controlled and manipulated). Yourdon's post on "INSURANCE" is another buzzword showing he is one of the truly "committed to the cause people". He doesn't even bother to hide that now.

All of that on the surface hides more probably OFF LINE.

THE........DELIBERATE COVER=UP ON THEIR FORUM...OF NOTICE OF THE POLICE AND F.B.I. ARRESTING TERRORISTS..........SHOULD SERVE AS WARNING.

EVEN WHEN POSTED THE SHORTNESS OF THE THREADS, THE LACK OF SHOCK THAT A TERRORIST GROUP IN ***SEVEN STATES*** WAS GOING TO ATTACK A NATIONAL GUARD ARMORY ...........AND.......A NUKE POWER PLANT.....SHOULD TELL YOU THAT SOME HAVE REASONS NOT TO BRING NOTICE OF THOSE THINGS TO THAT FORUM.

WHY?? YOU DECIDE.

LONG AGO........NORTH TOLD HIS FORUM MEMBERS TO NOT DISCUSS THE USE OF FIREARMS.

WHY??? Was he anti-guns?? HARDLY.

He did not want the board drawing the attention of assorted people who monitor such things looking for the more Violent Elements of Society.

He is not unaware of the violence associated with Extremist Elements in the Anti-Abortion groups. He even wrote a rather famous letter in which he tells the MURDERER (his term) of an Abortion Doctor to go to his Execution.

Andy is an extremist?? Well go figure.. I guess I should get over to the debunkie site more often if ole chukkkie is going nuts...

-- y2k dave (xsdaa111@hotmail.com), December 18, 1999.


Yeah, yeah, yeah, more psychological problems from Steve and the boys.On the left, we have Steve who has some sort of strange obsession with cpr. I guess it's true that sick personal disorders really CAN evolve when a student like Steve begins to hang on every word of a teacher like cpr.

Over here, we have truly pathetic individuals like y2k Dave (who says he'll head over to Debunking) and the head loon, CT speaking about the Debunking site. CT, for his part, is the type of hypocrite that seems to be the norm for the TB boards. Scream loud and long about 'polly trolls' that hit this board. Yell 'delete' repeatedly when people like Lady Logic post and then go over to Debunking to act like the punk he is.

CT, like Ray, Flame Away, and 'others' before you, you set the new standard in cowardice. Nice to know we have individuals like you in our society. Your yellow streak shows for miles. Pity cpr wasn't around last night to ream your prepubescent mind out.

13 days left. Don't worry, CT. The public will forget about you and your whining. Really. And Steve, perhaps pin up posters of Alan Greenspan in a bathing suit will do the trick for you, as well.

Hmmmmm.... must have hit a nerve :-) "and the head loon, CT speaking about the Debunking site." Geezzzz... leave for 6 months, and you become the head loon... LMAO!!!!!

ROFLMAO!! That was the funniest post I've read in a long time from either side of the fence. Kudos!
