The WayBackMachine has not a single example of your site validating.
Not one, Sandman. How do you explain that?

On Jan 3, 2007 you lied that I somehow forged the data (even though it is
all *still* available from the original sources).
<http://groups.google.com/group/comp.sys.mac.advocacy/msg/50357e0b04c523a6>
-----

Please stop posting forged PDF's, Michael.

> site *ever* validating.
I have no intention of explaining your lies.
-----
You never did explain how you thought I "forged" the data from those
sources!
And before that you just flip flopped all over trying to figure out if you
thought your CSS validated or not.
I stated it did not validate on 29 May 2006:
<http://groups.google.com/group/comp.sys.mac.advocacy/msg/c762f549f18644b2>
-----
On a side note, I decided to look at Sandman.net: your
code is pretty damned bad. Do you really call yourself a
professional?
[HTML Validation Link] Close to 100 errors on *one* page!
That is pretty damned pathetic.
[CSS Validation Link] Again, multiple errors.
For someone who was belittling others about their web
skills you really should look at your own first.
-----
You even *admitted* to it then (29 May 2006):
<http://groups.google.com/group/comp.sys.mac.advocacy/msg/d7aa0680bc7c857a>
-----
Yeah, I know. It's not bad - but it doesn't
validate very good. That's because the system that
does the code consists of over 1 million rows of
code, so there are good and bad parts of it.
-----
And the WayBackMachine proves that less than 2 weeks before, on 19 May 2006
it did not validate:
<http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/validator?uri=http://web.archive.org/web
/20060519191417/http://www.sandman.net/&warning=0&profile=css21&usermedium=a
> OR <http://snipurl.com/16fpk>
On 2 June 2006 you softened your view and made it sound like it likely
validated but *maybe* did not:
<http://groups.google.com/group/comp.sys.mac.advocacy/msg/6dec244207bfe35e>
-----
Plus, it's your claim that it didn't
validate, and we know you're a proven liar, so
chances are you've dug up some old, unrelated,
cached version that may have not validated for
other reasons, when it did at the time. I'm saying
that because you're a liar, but I also acknowledge
that it could be due to the way the stylesheets
are constructed.
-----
By 5 June 2006 you outright denied if failed CSS validation:
<http://groups.google.com/group/comp.sys.mac.advocacy/msg/aa2a0d2f18ee5de3>
-----
So why didn't I do the same with the HTML and
claim that it validates? Having non-validated CSS
is far less problematic than non-validating HTML
(even though, I agree, that the ways my HTML
wasn't validating were non-important). What pride
are you imagining I'm having in CSS but not in
HTML? :-D
-----
And by 9 June 2006 you were in complete denial mode:
<http://groups.google.com/group/comp.sys.mac.advocacy/msg/c883faeb1c29c6a9>
-----
> Advice I gave you:
> * get your CSS to validate
Incorrect, since it was already validating.
-----
At first you admitted it did not validate, then you decided it might not
have, then you did a complete flip flop from your original admission and
claimed the CSS was already validating... and even claimed I dug up some old
version that did not (as though that would be hard). But now we know
*every* *single* cached version fails validation... both CSS and HTML.
Every single one, Sandman. Once I pointed out your lack of validation,
though, you started getting it to validate, as even Tim Adams noted.
How do you explain your flip flopping *and* the fact that before I told you
how to validate your code there is not a single example of it validating.
Not one, Sandman. CSS or HTML. LOL!

only sandman cares, but you're the one starting a new thread about it,
when you're already having the same discussion in another thread?
really? if you don't care, seriously, stop posting this crap, or at
least stop making new threads about it (and don't revive (many) old
threads about it either, as you've done in the past).

I am not going to debate the obvious fact that you came into the middle of a
"situation" and pretend I have started it.

The question is why... but you will not answer.

The reason, of course, is the anger you have for past debates you have lost.
Let them go. You are acting much like Sandman in your obsession with your
past errors.

I'm not pretending anything.

No. But I'm sure it makes you feel better to believe such nonsense.

No, not really. But this will be my last post to you for a while. I've
slapped your sorry ass around enough now. If this continues, you'll just
start getting all weird. Forging PDFs, and claiming their originals. The

I see you even jumped in to defend Sandman and agree that the PDFs he

No wonder you are going to run away, scared. You know you have just pushed

"On a side note, I decided to look at Sandman.net: your code is pretty

Snit

Notably, this page that Snit claimed had 100 errors now shows 10
errors... I just checked... and they are all based on this:

--
" Line 498, Column 12: literal is missing closing delimiter
<a target='target='_new'' href="/feed.php?visit=38192" ><img src='/
media/cache/✉

Did you forget to close a (double) quote mark?--"


Anyone wanna take a stab at what caused this;)

For someone who was belittling others about their web skills you
really

should look at your own first. Besides not being even close to being
valid
code your page is very slow to load and, frankly, rather cluttered.

Snit... you're claiming that it's *Sandman's* code that is not
validating. How were you able to determine that *he* wrote the code
that is causing the validation errors you've claimed are from *his*
code (as opposed to code generated by the "system" he's using)?

"your code is pretty damned bad" - Snit


___________________________________________________________________________
Snit posts his proof that Sandman wrote the code that is causing the
validation errors here:

That's rich... the thread has less than 20 posts and you're already
pretending people are stupid enough to forget that you started the
friggin' thing. This, despite the fact that anyone can easily read the
first post in this thread any time they'd like. Wow... your drugs must

He realized that we've tried to keep him confined to one or two

Fixed. My bad, actually :)

Thanks for pointing out an error on my page in a reasonable mannner
that I could swiftly fix.

Actually, the "system" (CMS) I'm using is called Atlas and is
developed solely by me. So any errors in output would be in direct
relation to errors I've made. Sure, I've had employees at times, but
99% of all code is mine. That doesn't mean, of course, that all errors
are due to "incompetence" about CSS or HTML, since this is a very
dynamic system, lots of the output is the result of the combination of
a lot of functions. That means that the CSS (for example) isn't
contained as plain text in a text file, it's actually compiled from a
number of sources, even database and sent to the browser, at which
point errors could be made when parsing or rendering the data.

This makes for a very dynamic system that fits my self-employed kind
of business.

Errors in my code is my fault, yes. That's what I just said.

> You had some code that did not validate.

I've had non-validating CSS in the past, and present, yes. Only, I
didn't at the time you lied about it - a claim you have yet to show
any support for, yet whine like a little girl when I show ample
support for you flooding my site almost 300.000 times.

> At one point you admitted to it...

I have never admitted to your lie about my CSS not validating at the
time you claimed it didn't.

Incorrect, as has been explained to you in the past.

On Jan 3, 2007 you lied that I somehow forged the data (even though it is


all *still* available from the original sources).

I have no intention of explaining your lies.
-----
You never did explain how you thought I "forged" the data from those
sources!
And before that you just flip flopped all over trying to figure out if you
thought your CSS validated or not.
I stated it did not validate on 29 May 2006:

<http://groups.google.com/group/comp.sys.mac.advocacy/msg/c762f549f18644b2>
-----

On a side note, I decided to look at Sandman.net: your
code is pretty damned bad. Do you really call yourself a
professional?

[HTML Validation Link] Close to 100 errors on *one* page!


That is pretty damned pathetic.

[CSS Validation Link] Again, multiple errors.


For someone who was belittling others about their web
skills you really should look at your own first.

-----
You even *admitted* to it then (29 May 2006):
<http://groups.google.com/group/comp.sys.mac.advocacy/msg/d7aa0680bc7c857a>
-----
Yeah, I know. It's not bad - but it doesn't
validate very good. That's because the system that
does the code consists of over 1 million rows of
code, so there are good and bad parts of it.
-----
And the WayBackMachine proves that less than 2 weeks before, on 19 May 2006
it did not validate:
<http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/validator?uri=http://web.archive.org/web
/20060519191417/http://www.sandman.net/&warning=0&profile=css21&usermedium=a
> OR <http://snipurl.com/16fpk>
On 2 June 2006 you softened your view and made it sound like it likely
validated but *maybe* did not:
<http://groups.google.com/group/comp.sys.mac.advocacy/msg/6dec244207bfe35e>
-----
Plus, it's your claim that it didn't
validate, and we know you're a proven liar, so
chances are you've dug up some old, unrelated,
cached version that may have not validated for
other reasons, when it did at the time. I'm saying
that because you're a liar, but I also acknowledge
that it could be due to the way the stylesheets
are constructed.
-----
By 5 June 2006 you outright denied if failed CSS validation:
<http://groups.google.com/group/comp.sys.mac.advocacy/msg/aa2a0d2f18ee5de3>
-----
So why didn't I do the same with the HTML and
claim that it validates? Having non-validated CSS
is far less problematic than non-validating HTML
(even though, I agree, that the ways my HTML
wasn't validating were non-important). What pride
are you imagining I'm having in CSS but not in
HTML? :-D
-----
And by 9 June 2006 you were in complete denial mode:
<http://groups.google.com/group/comp.sys.mac.advocacy/msg/c883faeb1c29c6a9>
-----
> Advice I gave you:
> * get your CSS to validate
Incorrect, since it was already validating.
-----
At first you admitted it did not validate, then you decided it might not
have, then you did a complete flip flop from your original admission and
claimed the CSS was already validating... and even claimed I dug up some old
version that did not (as though that would be hard). But now we know
*every* *single* cached version fails validation... both CSS and HTML.
Every single one, Sandman. Once I pointed out your lack of validation,
though, you started getting it to validate, as even Tim Adams noted.
How do you explain your flip flopping *and* the fact that before I told you
how to validate your code there is not a single example of it validating.
Not one, Sandman. CSS or HTML. LOL!

Snit:

There is, of course, also no way for me to prove I did *not*
do what you accuse me of. How could I? That is why it comes
down to your word vs. mine. So let us look at an example
where we disagree and there *is* evidence - evidence that
neither you nor I could manipulate.

And we have that: your lie about your CSS. I have,
repeatedly, posted the absolute proof that you changed your
story and you lied. This is based on your own words, as
linked to in the Google archive, and on archived copies of
your site as found on the WayBackMachine. I think we can
safely say neither of us can manipulate those!

This data is unambiguous: it shows you denying your site had
CSS that failed validation, and it also shows that your site
had no archived copies that did pass validation, including up
to just 2 weeks before your denial. There are also
references to the then-current Google archive which I quoted
and you refused to comment on.

Your one possible out is to acknowledge that it never
validated for most of its then-history, but to say you just
got it to validate *days* before my claim - but you have
never been able to say what date you want to claim you got it
to validate. And, frankly, the idea that I just happened to
make the claim after years of your failing just does not pass
the sniff test. It is absurd. And, of course, it does not
account for your early admission and then later flip flop to
denial.

So what are you left with? Well.. snipping, running,
obfuscating... openly lying and accusing me of forging
PDFs... which you now claim are not even associated with this
situation. In other words, try to change the topic to some
*other* accusation of yours... clearly even you know you have
no leg to stand on.

You will, of course, run from the above. Your ego has been
hurt - you have been proved to be a liar and it offends you.
Such is life. You should have not lied in the first place,
but even more than that, you should just let it go. If you
would stop trolling me over your own embarrassment I assure
you the topic would be dead to me... there simply is no
reason to focus on such an old episode.

My advice: learn from your past and act better now. Accept
that I - and other reasonable people - will accept that
people can change. You made a mistake. Ok. We all do.
Move on and let it slide into the past.
-----

Sandman:
-----
Done. You're welcome.

But then Sandman went right back to trolling me and obsessing over his past
lies about CSS.

You keep saying you have "exposed" alleged lies of mine. So show it you
sniveling liar. Show where you have any *real* support for your claims
about me.

You have *nothing*. You merely lash out because your wee little ego was
hurt when you lashed out at others for what - as I proved - were your own
weaknesses (poorly validating code and a list of other problems with your
site). You have, by the way, since corrected most of the problems I pointed

After having worked (interspersing my own php code, html, css,
javascript) with things like Drupal, Wordpress, Joomla, etc. I can
certainly see how errors can be tossed out. I can even see how
difficult it would be to track them down depending on the error. This
is *nothing* like creating a website from a Dreamweaver template or
even making your own site from scratch using DW. It's hilarious to
watch gluehead try to compare these two very different things... I'd
like to see that idiot code up a CMS from scratch. He's even aware
that you coded the CMS from scratch, yet, he's still trying to compare
his errors to those generated by tons of code that generates markup,
code he likely couldn't even recognize. Of course, he is an "IT
teacher" so maybe he writes these kind of systems from the ground up
all the time and never has any errors (yeah, right;)

Perhaps he only denied things you were making up... you know, like you

So why are you, and only you, making *such* a big deal out of it for

CMS from scratch but know that you will never be able to do such a
thing? Yes, that must be it.

Indeed you did. What you didn't do was say something like, I don't
know:

"your code is pretty damned bad"

Or something like:

"Do you really call yourself a professional?"

Which had set the tone for your remark from the outset and could
hardly had been called "reasonable" in any stretch of the imagination.

But then again, who would do something so stupid anyway? :)

Of course not. Any given page in Atlas takes CSS instructions from at
least 10 different sources, depending on what application you're
using. Not only that, with some applications, like the blog
application, the users can define their own styles (through a web
interface) to style their blog to some extent.

DreamWeaver really is a beginner tool for the newbie to easily create
a basic web site. I would be the laugh of the industry if I made my
clients web sites with DreamWeaver, and if that's not enough - my
workload would not double, it would probably be fifty times higher,
and my delivery rates would slow to a crawl so I couldn't invoice my
clients in time for me to withdraw my paycheck and so on.

DreamWeaver is only viable if you have very few clients and they have
very low standards and expectations on your work.

But hey, whatever kind of points you can score from having
automatically validating CSS might be worth it :-D

Indeed, during our "truce" which was quick to break he was given the
option to ask questions which I answered (at least most) and those
answers are totally forgotten by him now. I answered his questions as
I would answer any question you would ask me.

This is the post:
<http://groups.google.com/group/comp.sys.mac.advocacy/msg/8f02ba30f8107
47f>

As you can see, all of the points are answered politely and to the
point. I tell him how the CSS is created and what kind of errors this
could lead to. I also tell him that CSS validatin is of little concern
to me (especially when compared to the amount of energy he puts into
it).

It's really not. From the beginning it was a live fetch, meaning that
the DB was accessed for each and every page request (hundreds of
thousands per month) which was a performance nightmare. It's being
cached now, but when the data comes from a DB, it's a lot harder to
determine when to recreate the cache, and I am currently aggregating
it at certain points (every five minutes) which means that there is a
lag between editing the DB and seeing the result. With flat text
files, you can always compare the file dates between the original and
the cache and determine when to recreate.

But the functionality it provides is very nice for my clients, so I
have to live with it.

And you show you have no idea what you are talking about when you refer to
the #1 professional web development tool as a "beginners" tool. That does
not mean, of course, that Dreamweaver is a Content Management System (though
it can work with them).

Not sure what you mean, by the way, by getting "points" for having
automatically validating CSS.

In that post you flat out say:
-----
As with any dynamic system, validation is not a on/off
switch. The CSS for any given Atlas site is generated from a
number of sources and databases, so there is no telling when
something will break, either by customers doings things
they're not supposed to or me parsing stylesheets
incorrectly.
...
Validation is of little concern to me. Making good looking
websites is far more important. I dont' give validation much
thought. If there is something obviously wrong with a page
and it's easy to fix when it's pointed out then sure, I'll
fix it. Most of the times it's been because my output scripts
have been misbehaving (not fixing ampersands in urls
correctly, tagging elements with name='' instead of id='' and
such)

There has never been any problem with validation, meaning
that even if a page didn't validate perfectly, it looked
perfect and as planned.
-----

Yet, years later, you are still clearly deeply angered by my pointing out
something you say is of "little concern to " you and you know there is "no
telling when something will break".

Here is my guess: I noted that your homepage did not validate correctly. As
you note, your site has lots of dynamic features, including the CSS. When
you checked, maybe it did. Instead of just saying that, you accused me of
lying.

So I did a little bit of work and looked at the archived copies of your
site... and *none* of them validated. Now that does not cover every second
of the history of your site. *Maybe* there were unrecorded times before
that when it did validate. But clearly validating correctly was not the
norm.

Years later, though, you are still upset about this... and you still lash
out and call me names and accuse me of forging PDFs... though you have back
pedaled and now claim you were accusing me of forging some *other* PDF not
even related to the topic (I accept you have a problem with focus... OK).

I'm sure Steve understood perfectly though. You know, the person I was

What is "clear" to you, is seemingly unknown to everyone else. Any

angry when exposing your lies.

Correction; I pointed out that you were lying, since I didn't thing

You claim to realise that, yet can't admit that you have yet to

I wouldn't know. I di know that it validated when you claimed it
didn't. That's all I need to know.

I am still pointing out your lies when you post them here in csma,
years after, yes.

No backpedalling took place. You have yet to support your
unsubstantiated claim that I have said that those PDF's are forged. I
very much think that they are, but I wouldn't claim they are without
knowing - as with your earlier PDF's that you did forge.

Whatever a "Contact" Management System is...

Any questions from you will be answered in a reasonable manner the day
you stop lying and trolling, as they were when you joined me in the
Code of Honesty agreement, which you promptly broke.

What things "seem" to someone using DreamWeaver and claiming that it's
not a beginners tool is pretty much irrelevant to me :)

And lying is apparently your thing.

It is comments like this that you made *before* I made the comments you
whined about.

Yeah, you lashed out against me... I responded by pointing out how you were
being a hypocrite, but did so in a way to help educate you not just on
manners but also in ways to help you better your web development skills.

You *clearly* took much of the advice to heart, but then still lashed out
and lied about me.

By the way, looking at http://sandman.net, your images are still very poorly
compressed. For example, the 139K image of the bridge, even when set to
"Very High" quality in Photoshop and with its color profile embedded, is
reduced to less than 22K. The painted-face picture, at 139K, could be
reduced in the same way to about 20K. Similar story with your other images.

For anyone with a slow connection, this makes a difference - and it reduces
the load on the server to reduce those image sizes. There... now you know.

Other than that, though, you have made some good improvements. You no
longer have the "mystery meat" navigation, and that was likely your biggest
area of need. The contrast on your main text is excellent now, though your
headers might be a little less so, they are large enough where I think they
are fine. Your text is well broken up into "bite size" sections... but I
think you have done that well since I first looked at your site.

For people with larger fonts, your layout gets pretty messed up - but that
is common with CSS layouts. Look forward to future versions of CSS that
actually handle layout well... you know, with a table-like structure. :)

As I figured: you have no answer. You are not familiar with the big-name
CMS applications or fear you home-brewed one would not stand up.

But you seem to like using it... I am certainly not trying to talk you out
of it... was just testing to see if you held any *real* pride in your work
or were just scared to talk about it.

Sandman trolled with his belitting of others.
I pointed out what a hypocrite he was... and, sure, I did not treat the poor
sap with kid gloves. He was dishing it out, he sure as heck better be able
to take it.

But I also pointed him in directions to improve his work. And he did. Look
at his current sandman.net site: do you see any mystery meat navigation?
Does the contrast look pretty good? Is his use of white space pretty good?
Do his headers look professional?

In the past they did not... those were the biggest areas of improvement I
suggested for him. And he listened. And learned.

And will deny.

Your definition of "lying and trolling" clearly means nothing more than

The fact is, Sandman, you keep snipping, running and - now - showing you
cannot think of a single advantage of your system over more common CMS
solutions. No big deal - maybe you just like yours or have so much data in
yours you do not see a reason to switch. It is not like I am saying you are
wrong to use yours, just asking a question. No big deal that you cannot

Sad, though, that you feel the need to turn things around and spew insults

ROFLMAO! People "familiar with the industry" wouldn't have suggested
he was reinventing the wheel by writing a CMS. You "very, very
clearly" have no knowledge of this topic. Maybe you should go do some
research so you can prevent yourself from looking like what you now

I did. I've learned a bit since I started in on this stuff (you may
remember my questions about php awhile back). I've fiddled with
creating a simple php based CMS. I rolled my own with a Ruby on Rails
install. I've taken a website that I created for someone and ported
the same look and feel to Wordpress. I've worked with MySQL in a
terminal window, in phpMyAdmin and in some other OSX apps designed for
it. I haven't gotten my hands nearly as dirty as a professional like
you but I'm no longer a clueless newb about this stuff... the way a
certain self professed "IT teacher" obviously is.

Yeah, as I said - this isn't hard stuff really, and anyone determined
to make a dynamic page would learn about php, or ruby, in a couple of
weeks enough to make something that works, which always leads to a
sense of satisfaction and further determination to build upon it.

I'm a schooled graphics artist and was employed by ICA F�rlaget, one
of sweden largests publishers in 1993 as an Art Director for a
magazine. I moved within the company to the newly formed Internet
Department which was meant to make home pages for all publications. I
was still the graphics artist and knew nothing about perl (the SSI/CGI
programming language of choice back then). My collegue back then who
were a programmer was unfortunately very lazy, so over the years I
taught myself perl to pick up the slack between us, and soon I built
my first CMS, entirely with RXML and Pike, the markup-parsing language
and the scripting language used by Roxen.

In fact, Roxen themselves have built a XML-based CMS on top of their
web server foudnation that they once came over and tried to sell us -
but it turned out that they left us and were more impressed with what
I had done with their base than they had themselves. I didn't know it
at the time, but years later another associate had heard from them
about "that cool CMS system at ICA F�rlaget built using our tools", so
we had become a reference for them. Funny :)

Oh, I'm getting carried away here. Anyway, when PHP became more and
more popular it was a pretty natural for my perl-background to move to
it and I started to build Atlas back in 2001, right around when the
dotcom bubble burst and layoffs were everywhere. In 2003, with me
being the only one left on the Internet Department, I was also let go
and started my own business and took the base for Atlas with me, and
I've developed it ever since.

I've glanced at Ruby on Rails, and it looks sweet for someone starting
from scratch, but as it is, most of the sweet functionality of Ruby on
Rails are already present in Atlas, so I've pretty much built my own
PHP Framework that works exactly how I want it. You won't be able to
understand what I'm saying, but you can watch these two videos on how
I'm building applications in Atlas:

http://sandman.net/pages/Skapa_Moduler_I_Atlas
This is a video about me creating an atlas "module", which in this
case is a product catalog. A very basic one of course, but you would
probably get the idea. A module is a set of rules for how to edit and
insert data into one or several databases, so you'll see me set up the
DB, set up the rules for how it's edited and so forth.

http://sandman.net/pages/Skapa_Applikationer_I_Atlas
And this video is me creating a Atlas application, based on the
aforementioned module. It's very easy and the time to result is very
short.

This became a very long post, hope you didn't fell asleep :)

Too bad. But if you would change your mind and want to stop lying and

From your perspective - no doubt. No doubt at all.

Now stop snipping and running. It really does nothing but prove me right

But, of course, you are just running from the absolute proof that you not

Looks pretty impressive... from what little I know of PHP and working with
CMSs. :)

I see you are a fellow ScreenFlow user. Absolutely love that software -
works for me much better than Camtasia on Windows used to. I use it a lot
to make Windows screencasts via virtualization.

Not at all... I found it interesting... and I watched both videos, you
did a really nice job all the way around. Frankly, and I don't know
why, I didn't expect it to be so extensive. I really like the look,
especially the admin section. App creation was straightforward... even
I could understand it;)

At your suggestion, long ago, I bought BBEdit... a great app IMO. Have
you ever used Sequel Pro (a fork from the discontinued CocoaMySQL I
saw you using here)?

Just as much as you can show me writing that as a response to your
paragraph. I.e. show me a message-ID containing both those paragraphs
with one being the response to the other.

But you can't do that, because it doesn't exist, since you forged the
quote, since you're a dishonest lying troll.

Yes, I use it exclusively for SQL nowadays, a much nice and cleaner

Ok, then *do* it. Look at this thread - you can see my posting what I did
in one post and then you responding to the very sentence I say you did with
the exact response I quote. Do you need message IDs?

I do not deny you dishonestly snipped and I returned the context in which
you were replying, but if you would stop being dishonest you would not have
to worry about such thing. Not that you *can* stop, of course... that has
been proved.

See, Sandman, now you are stuck in a position of whining that I did not
react to your dishonest behavior in a way you like... I maintained the
context you ran from. Poor Sandman... people do not bend to his silly lies
the way he wants. Wah wah.

No, I need *ONE* Message-ID with your part of the quote above in angle
brackets and my part directly beneath it.


Sandman:


But you can't do that, because it doesn't exist, since you
forged the quote, since you're a dishonest lying troll.

(part of what you snipped and ran from and didn't reply to)

Snit:
Ok

(part of your response, taken out of context to make it
seem like you didn't snip the above and responded directly
to it with "Ok")

Those are just as "exact" quotes as yours. You're a quote forger, PDF
forger and a dishonest lying troll.

It's depressing when one has to explain your own circus to you, when
you're pretending that you don't know what kind of forging you're
doing.

Gee, you claimed you could show my responding as you dishonestly claimed I
did.

You lied - you cannot do as you said. Of course you cannot... you lied.
You snipped dishonestly to try to make it look like I agreed to something I
did not.

Now stop whining about how I returned context you dishonestly snipped.
Seriously, the fact you are whining about how I reacted to your dishonest
snipping is pathetic, even for you. The fact is, I posted:

I will not stop being honest and honorable, no matter how

And you responded with:

I can show that just as much as you can show me responding as you
dishonestly claimed I did.

No, you did not. I noted how I posted a comment and you responded. You
posted two completely separate comments, one dishonestly snipped.

But let us pretend I had done as you did... how would that excuse your
dishonesty? You are acting like Carroll... trying to excuse your dishonesty
by *blaming* me for acting like you.

You are not even trying to maintain a pretense of doing anything other than
lying... you used to. At least you are not dishonestly hiding your
dishonesty... a meager improvement for you, but a small step in the right
direction.

Then point to the posts. Maybe I did start a sentence that way... who knows
and who cares? Clearly you are dishonestly snipping... and then lying and
saying you are doing what I did when I *returned* other content you
dishonestly snipped.

Either way: you have given up any pretense of being anything other than
openly dishonest. You are *clearly* acting in a way that is neither honest
nor honorable. I, on the other hand, shall not sink to your level... I
shall remain honest and honorable, no matter how many times you
mischaracterize it, snip and run, beg me to stop being honest and honorable,
etc.

And, of course, this thread has proved my point. I provided absolute proof
of you lying about your CSS... and now, many posts later, you are still not
willing to talk about the proof. As the subject like says, you repeatedly
run from the proof you lied. Fine... just stop lashing out in anger over
it.

Carroll has noted why you and he are acting the way you are: jealousy. In
his normal twisted way, he accused me of his own behavior in order to try to
excuse his behavior, but that is just what he does. It would be dishonest
to pretend otherwise.

Anyway... run away as you get the last word. It is not like you are willing
to be honest.

That's exactly what I did above. You had snipped out the part I
returned which made it look like your "Ok" was a response to something
you had snipped out.

A bummer when your trolling bites yourself in the ass like this.

Good to see you admit to it. Seriously, I am surprised to see you make this
admission... and no need to even return context you had snipped... you jus
flat our admitted to being dishonest. I am happy to see you at least come
that far.

I did no such thing. I *returned* the context you had dishonestly snipped.
You are lying... but at least now you are *admitting* you are lying. That
is a step in the right direction for you. Really.

Now see if you can *stop* lying. You gave me your word once you would not
lie... but here you are, being dishonest and - to your credit - admitting
you are being so.

I admit to using your trolling technique to make a point, yes. The
point, of course, was totally lost on you since if there is anyting
stronger than your urge to troll csma, it's your capacity for denial.

As did I - I *returned* the context which you had dishonestly snipped
away when you answered with "Ok". When returning that context, I made
it appear that your Ok was in response to the context that you had
snipped away. This is your Circus, Snit. I'm just using it against you.

I.e. the context you dishonestly snipped in this post:

<C699CBA9.3F495%use...@gallopinginsanity.com>

From this post:

<mr-14A3EE.17...@News.Individual.NET>

Was returned in a fashion where it seemed like you replied to content
you had snipped:

Sandman, wrote this:


But you can't do that, because it doesn't exist, since you
forged the quote, since you're a dishonest lying troll.

Snit wrote this in a follow-up post:
Ok

Just like content *I* had snipped in this post:

<mr-F23E3D.11...@News.Individual.NET>

From this post:

<C698C528.3F295%use...@gallopinginsanity.com>

Was returned by you in a fashion where it seemed like I was replying
to content that I had snipped:

Snit's quote-forging:


Snit:
I will not stop being honest and honorable, no matter how
you misrepresent it or what demands you make.

Sandman:
Too bad.

Your quote forging is easy to spot, since you can never attach a
Message-ID to those quotes, because there isn't one, like in this
case. When you don't quote-forge, you usually attach a google link or
a Message-ID, even when the quote is taken completely out of context
(which is the norm for you), but when you quote-forge, you can't,
because there is no link to the passages you make appear as a quote.
That is quote-forging.

That is the *exact* sentence I wrote and the *exact* response you gave

you were busted. Again.
