You apparently assume my post was directed personally towards you. A touch of conceit there, perhaps.

Well, since you made a personal reference towards me using the words "flamboyant verbosity", I figured I was at least included in your judgment of scientific worthiness. Did I miss something?

You have heard of sarcasm, plus after witnessing your frustration with Orac, and after the warning you gave regarding any battles with words, I'd say it's a safe determination. And as you said, its all in the interpretation. Care to persuade me in a more convincing manner that I'm wrong?

So, just in the imagination of the interpreter.

I guess your just transparent, or you lack an ability to convey your message clearly, without leaving your comments open to loose interpretation. smile

Thank you for the admission.

No problem, thanks for not denying the judgment.

I do my best to allocate appropriately.

As in the reference to flamboyant verbosity as it was directed towards me and the reference to scientific worth as well? shocked

I’m not being drawn into that sort of “schoolyard” exchange. In fact. I’m a little surprised that you find the need to go there.

Whattya mean. You started it! shocked
