Matt,

It has been so long since we last sparred swords over these topics. But where have you been? I see that you have not posted since during May of the year 2009? This is sad. If you have a new blog, let me know, for I desire to link to you.

Cheers as always and I hope you are well,
NS

Ugh are people still talking about this?

Regardless of how it turns out (I myself am as yet uncommitted on the matter; must do more research, rather than, say, getting back to work), mattheath has, as they say, already won the thread.

Naturally a jokester might want to keep the joke going (by protesting seriousness) even after we suspect. But that doesn’t mean we have no way to know. We’ll just have to think of the right approach.

I should point out that NS’s comments at Good Math, Bad Math and at EvolutionBlog were not inherently cranky. But they didn’t have a lot of content either.

I AM NOT CRAZY

Typing that in all caps may have been counter-productive.

Greenish Blue:

You don’t sound like the crazy Time Cube guy.

Hmm. Interesting. MAYBE BECAUSE I AM NOT CRAZY. And maybe because I am against people like him.

This is getting exhausting.

I made the mistake of commenting on one of NS’s posts, and now he’s commenting on my blog for my local skeptical group.

I’m 80% sure he’s a troll (“[Kevin Trudeau] uses legitimate arguments and ideas. And he has a fundamental respect for science.”) [ http://saltcityskeptics.blogspot.com/2008/12/what-do-you-want.html#comments ]

I mean, the guy is quoting both Lyndon LaRouche AND Noam Chomsky all over the place. Hsi arguments are nonsensical, and yet he doesn’t come off like time-cube guy at all.

Hey Captain Condescension (John Armstrong),

How about you quit your tours of assassinating my character and stop calling everyone who disagrees with you a “troll”?

Hmmmm?

Oh he’s clearly having (or trying to have) us on. Remember, children, don’t feed the trolls.

Jadehawk:

You are silly. The Latin is an excellent translation, done in fact by a real noted scholar. Just to give you a hint on the most contentious word that your pathetic “Latin geeks” couldn’t understand:

ad furandum is ad + an accusative gerund. Feel free to go and learn what a gerund can mean.

Whose Latin “sucks” now? Apparently yours does, my friend.
