Anytime you want Red Ibis, to answer those pertinent questions left unanswered about your views on the DNA evidence found at the Pentagon, and why you think it may not be genuine or evidence that the passengers of flight 77 died there:

The first one is a little broad, so let's start with the second one:

Remember, this is what you had to say about the victims DNA:

since within the laws of the physical world, there would be other ways such DNA could have been reported without that flight having been at the Pentagon.

But you can plug any type of evidence in the argument:

"since within the laws of the physical world, there would be other ways such debris could have been reported without that flight having been at the Pentagon"

"since within the laws of the physical world, there would be other ways such video could have been recorded without that flight having been at the WTC"

"since within the laws of the physical world, there would be other ways such a core column could have been reported without having been at the WTC 7"

"since within the laws of the physical world, there would be other ways such victim could have been reported without that person having been at the WTC"

So, according to your own logic, how do you go about and discriminate which statement is more likely than the other?

I've given up on challenging RedIbis. He's quite clearly not interested in answering questions, only asking them.

I'm an optimist.

While I can appreciate their humor, I moved a few off-topic posts to AAH. Please stay on topic.

RedIbis has failed to answer questions you say? Well, how extraordinary!

Here’s one he ran away from:

Gage... did get a bit carried away with the cardbord boxes, but even that point was clear enough.I'm not asking this to set some sort of "trap" or to be snarky, but could you possibly articulate the point he was trying to make?The Law of Conservation of Momentum.You’re being evasive again, RedIbis. Unfortunately, “The Law of Conservation of Momentum” is simply a sentence fragment – a lone signifier of a concept – and thus no more a legitimate point than “Sack of Potatoes” is a valid argument.

It is obvious, to me at least, what point Gage is attempting to make, which is the following: “Due to the law of the conservation of momentum, the cardboard box in my left hand does not reach the ground, but instead its fall is arrested. Therefore, the upper blocks of the World Trade Center towers, due the same principle, should not have reached the ground, but instead their falls should have been arrested.” The problem, of course, is that said point, as I’m sure you can see, is utterly idiotic.

You, on the other hand, seem to believe that, despite his clowning, he was making a perfectly salient point. You were further asked to articulate that point, a responsibility you attempted to side-step. So are you able to elucidate, or are you not?


There's also this absolute classic:

In what way is Silverstein telling the Fire Department what the best plan would be (even if that was what he was doing) an example of him lying? (http://forums.randi.org/showpost.php?p=3639571&postcount=48)

Let it be known that as these questions go COMPLETELY UNANSWERED, RedIbis not-so-subtly accuses us (http://forums.randi.org/showpost.php?p=5226512&postcount=24) of not wanting to...

engage in discourse

So, what'll it be, Red? Will you answer these questions, or will you try to convince yourself that you're not a hypocrite?

[Pardalis]

I suggest everyone stop responding to Red until he answers our questions.

This refusal to answer questions and only ask them is sympotamic of Truthers. I get the same thing on other forums, even if the function of the forum is unrelated to 911. It's almost like a refusal to admit there's a problem with their system - kind of like fundamentalist Christians.

[Pardalis]

Bump for Red Ibis.

You ask people to answer your questions in other threads, maybe you'd like to answer my questions now?

[Stellafane]

Hi Pardalis! How's things in the Great White North? (Thought I'd try to put this thread to use, since it seems unlikely ever to fulfill its original purpose.)

[Pardalis]

Red?
