- nyikos@math.scarolina.edu (Peter Nyikos) writes to James Purdon about
- his attribution problems:
-
- >>With one dubious exception (the exception is dubious because it was
- >>claimed by the woman whose name my cats cry out when they cough up
- >>hairballs) in five years of posting I have never had a problem with
- >>attributions. An examination of the attributed posting is generally
- >>enough to sort things out, and the defacto standard imposed by what
- >>appears to the most frequently used posting software seems
- >>straightforward enough. As further evidence of this contention,
- >>thousands of postings containing attributions are made on a daily
- >>basis and received without objections.

- Peter have you forgotten that you misattributed Brian McBean's use of
- butthead to me and used that as an excuse for characterizing my
- opinions as such. Have you already forgotten the butthead for forced
- pregnancy thread? So soon? What other recent events have you
- forgotten?
