Quote from 377OHMS:
Never made any predictions regarding politics, religion or any other related matters except, of course, predicting that you would not compete fairly or would not compete at all but that is no difficult thing to surmise.
I saw you say something similar to Tsing Tao who also never made any predictions that you can cite.
You're exhibiting the same chickenshit lack of courage that allowed folks to be rounded up, enslaved and transported so meekly hundreds of years ago. A certain infirmity between the ears, an aversion to perceived personal risk, a veneer of inflated sense of self-worth, unjustified certitude and irrational claims that conceal a wounded psyche that cannot put anything on the line because it does not believe itself worthy or capable.
I really don't see what you have to lose by competing as you've certainly got no reputation here that requires protection. You've shown yourself to be a bit of a welsher and only a complete lack of shame or self-delusional slight of hand allows you to continue to post here.
Range controlled geometry? Please.
Someone should start a poll here and determine who, outside of a few servile flatterers, believes anything you post in the "Journals" forum. You are a damned liar.
