But no...THere are, what three or four, max, Larsen Lists? (I can only think of two offhand...) Like rare wines, Van Goghs, or Stradivarii--I want an original! Sheesh, I don't even have anyone on my ignore list, nor am I on any that I know about--I need a Larsen List!
*sigh*
Ha! Maybe Claus would consent to making honorary lists for us. :)

Clancie, did you not want to continue our discussion? (I don't mind.)
I've answered it twice. If you don't understand still, then, yes, I'd just as soon let it go. I can't put it any clearer than I have in this thread.

Well, not to be greedy, Mercutio, I'll happily give you one of mine (I have three!).

Really, from the bottom of my heart I thank you, Clancie, but it really just wouldn't be the same. I do appreciate the gesture, though, but I want to have earned it. :(

Mercutio, TLN,
Sorry, guys. Consider the competition. You are way out of your league here. 'nuff said. :)
Clancie,
Actually, you have one: Questions Clancie does NOT want to answer (http://www.randi.org/vbulletin/showthread.php?s=&threadid=23764&highlight=questions). The rest are not relevant anymore, since you have refused to answer the questions in the other threads.
Again, we see that you simply cannot stick to the truth. Again, we see that you revel in playing the role of the persecuted victim.

I'm sorry Clancie, but I just don't see them. Can you quote them for me? Do you not want to help me? If so, why not?

TLN,
No game playing, yes?
Please read my posts on page 4. That really addresses everything in your thread topic.
Beyond that, there was this on page 5. I don't think I am able to make it any clearer for you than this.
TLN: Clancie, what is your reason for being here?
Clancie: I think you really should be able to figure it out from what I already wrote in this thread.
TLN: I can't. Will you help me please?
Clancie: Really. Well, then here it is for you. My purpose is "to be part of the JREF web community by engaging in intelligent discussions with both skeptics and non-skeptics from around the globe."
I hope that helps. I really have confidence you will be able to understand my answer if you take time to read the things I've mentioned to you above.

Thank you Clancie.
Now, there are plenty of places on the web to discuss John Edward. Why would you choose to post at a place where...
People are hostle towards, even hate, John Edward
You will be routinely asked for evidence of your claims.
then complain when you experience these events??
Doesn't this seem inherently illogical to you?

I see no one wants to address these points. Oh well...

I've explained why I'm here, TLN. Three times now
You don't seem to get it. Oh well.

You're correct, I don't understand someone in the rain without an umbrella complaining about being wet.
Do you understand it?

Um, perhaps because skeptics have a reputation for being logical maybe??
Perhaps some of them are illogical, but they do it logically.

Do you understand it? Reminds me a little of the "America--love it or leave it" crowd. I can point to things I disagree with in my country--should I leave it? Maybe...just maybe there are other reasons that override the one I point at.
A person in the rain with no umbrella may have chosen freely to be there, but I won't go so far as to say they must have chosen to be there.
Suppose I don't like going to places where people make fun of someone I admire, and are downright hostile to people who admire that person. But suppose that place is also the only place I know of where I can talk to TLN, my secret object of admiration. Of course I would bear the whips and scorns of time, the oppressor's wrong, the proud man's contumely, the pangs of dispriz'd love, the law's delay, and all that jazz.
There are more things in heaven and earth, TLN, than are dreamt of in your example, and more reason than one to stay or go.
...sorry, I was channeling Hamlet there for a bit...

It's okay, I think I finally get it. I'm kind of in the rain myself. Thanks for your kind words.

Were you searching for a very old thread to reanimate it necromantically.... By answering with one word ?

Someone referenced it in another thread. Blame them. :)
