- Your `dispute' with me is getting a little one-sided, in that I have now
- issued no less than four invitations including my original followup (five
- if you count this one) for you to respond to my allegation that you have
- used statistics in a bogus manner (original followup on 16 July, subsequent
- reminders [all posted as followups to various of your posts] on 27 September,
- 26 October, and two today [including this one], 23 November).
-
- If you regard allegations of "intentional dishonesty", backed up with
- evidence, as a trifling matter unworthy of a response, there are those
- here who do not. I am one of them and have no intention of going away.
