Ed Poor...

...hasn't edited for a while, and I don't see a note about a holiday on his userpage. Any ideas? EddyP (talk) 17:39, 11 July 2009 (UTC)

5 days absent from WP - that's not unusual though. ^{This message brought to you by: respond}_and honey 18:55, 11 July 2009 (UTC)

If you summon him, he will come. Ace McWickedⁱ⁹ 22:01, 11 July 2009 (UTC)

He's back on WP too. Not obsessive at all Broccoli (talk) 22:05, 11 July 2009 (UTC)

He does ask the question we're all asking. --Kels (talk) 22:07, 11 July 2009 (UTC)

He's such an awful wiki editor. Adds a couple lines to homosexuality and puts the ref inline, when all the others are footnotes... How come no one has reverted him yet? ħuman 22:48, 11 July 2009 (UTC)

At WP it has been cleaned up so that it is now in prose form (instead of a list) and the reality has been added. At CP it has been enshrined as fact. Am I the only one who notice that pretty much every topic on CP is a quote mine these days? - π 01:17, 12 July 2009 (UTC)

Ed creates another article at Wikipedia. Sometimes I wonder if he actually has senility problems. Megaten (talk) 01:35, 12 July 2009 (UTC)

Anyone want to slap a notability tag on that? - π 01:41, 12 July 2009 (UTC)

Having googled around, the guy might be worthy of an article but Ed's ref doesn't cut it. Standard practice: start something & leave it to the grunts to do the work. ^{This message brought to you by: respond}_and honey 01:50, 12 July 2009 (UTC)

You go through Ed's work, right from the beginning, and it quickly becomes clear that the only reason he has any credibility at all is longevity. That's it. He can't start an article properly, he pushes POV constantly, he sucks at making references, he asks stupid rhetorical questions when he could just go and write in the article, and on and on. He's incompetent and has a habit of backing exactly the wrong horses (global warming denial, creationism, Moonies, hard-right Conservatism, CP, etc., etc.). WP must have been handing out sysopships the way we do back in the day. --Kels (talk) 02:30, 12 July 2009 (UTC)

My impression was that WP grew very quickly after a slowish start and everyone who joined before a certain time period were grandfathered into sysopship to keep up with the sudden growth in users. - π 02:41, 12 July 2009 (UTC)

Kels, I have been making exactly those same points since I first commented on Ed. And you can also include not adding categories and ignorance about how to find things out on a wiki. I remember him asking for help on how the gallery feature works. It's not difficult, you can look it up in the help pages or copy another gallery to use as a template. For someone who continually boasts about his wiki-heritage, he is an absolutely appalling editor who claims the work of others for himself. His early standing at WP ws purely a matter of being in the right place at the right time. When it came to actually applying the principles of good governance he failed miserably and was rightly shown the door. His efforts at CP have continued in the same vein, where he has almost single-handedly destroyed their maths articles and singularly failed at establishing or encouraging a framework for future development. And now he only pops his head round the door at CP to let them know he's still alive while pushing his pet projects elsewhere. I'm sure Andy had high hopes by getting an ex-Wikipedian of some standing (especially one who had been "forced out by libruls") to help with his project. Alas, Ed had has been like one of those temporary managers who comes in, slashes all the essential regular spending, upsets all the staff, and then moves on claiming that he has increased profit margins. There is absolutely no question that he was the worthy winner of the CP's biggest idiot ward. Генгис^evolving 08:39, 12 July 2009 (UTC)

I think you pretty much covered the Ed story between you, Pi, and more so Genghis. The guy, as our British friends would say, couldn't organize a piss up in a brewery. ħuman 09:14, 12 July 2009 (UTC)

How dare you! We certainly wouldn't say that!

It's "organise". Ajkgordon (talk) 18:00, 12 July 2009 (UTC)

So much for having British friends. --Kels (talk) 18:43, 12 July 2009 (UTC)

That's how they write it. They say it "organize" ;) ħuman 20:48, 12 July 2009 (UTC)

That's because it's more phonetic. --Kels (talk) 05:21, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

Is TK losing his touch?

Probably not WIGO worthy but I just found it quite amusing that someone's just been on a 30 minute vandalism streak with TK online, but he does nothing. It seems he then got a bit em brassed about it so blocked the guy who pointed out the vandalism. Jammy (talk) 18:43, 11 July 2009 (UTC)

Paint. Drying. You should liveblog watering your plants next time. TK blocks people. That's his function at CP. He doesn't edit, he doesn't do policy, he blocks and deletes. User:Nutty Roux/sigtalk 18:59, 11 July 2009 (UTC)

You should stop being such a big meany pants. Web (talk) 20:55, 11 July 2009 (UTC)

I was more making a point about how boring TK stories usually are than harshing your buzz, but you're right. Sorry about that. User:Nutty Roux/sigtalk 20:59, 11 July 2009 (UTC)

The liveblogging plants thing sounds more like Ed Poor than TK. --Kels (talk) 21:01, 11 July 2009 (UTC)

Dun worry, its k. All is forgiven. <3 Web (talk) 21:10, 11 July 2009 (UTC)

Hey, Slutty, you should add "(such a) big meany pants" to your random talk page link list... By the way, if you add a single pipe at the end of the transclusion, your different sigs on one page will return different random things. Otherwise the parser runs it once and re-uses the results in each subsequent instance. ħuman 21:47, 11 July 2009 (UTC)

You speaking funny language to me. You do these things to sig and sigtalk. You real nice.User:Nutty Roux/sigtalk 21:49, 11 July 2009 (UTC)

Unfortunately you appear to transclude your sig from your preferences. Генгис^evolving 22:03, 11 July 2009 (UTC)

It works, see what I did above - added "|" before the closing brackets. ħuman 22:21, 11 July 2009 (UTC)

You're such a geek. Генгис^evolving 22:40, 11 July 2009 (UTC)

I thought it was pretty funny. A vandal is busy pasting ascii pron into the articles...and what's TK doing while it's happening? Deleting all of tmt's archives. Pretty pathetic...then again I guess we (especially Trent) have always been more important to TK than CP. Hey TK. ^{— Signed, by: Neveruse513 / Talk / Block} 23:43, 11 July 2009 (UTC)

He has now oversighted the guy telling him. Really what does he hope to achieve? We all know he fucked up and let a vandal lose, hiding it won't make it unhappen. What a pathetic little man he has become, he runs a small wiki like he was an authoritarian dictator because he has nothing else to control. - π 01:28, 12 July 2009 (UTC)

"This guy's alerting me about vandalism he is reverting...I'd better run checkuser on him..." It just goes to show you what the atmosphere on CP is like any more. I think TK's latest exchange with Jamie almost said it explicitly...good faith is not assumed...at all. ^{— Signed, by: Neveruse513 / Talk / Block} 01:41, 12 July 2009 (UTC)

We at least got "assuming good faith is liberal" out of him, so much for the compassionate conservative. - π 01:45, 12 July 2009 (UTC)

Yeah, mistrust is such a conservative value. Генгис^evolving 08:42, 12 July 2009 (UTC)

Also isn't it ironic that TK oversights the guy telling him about the vandalism but leaves the porn on display via the page history. "Use the force for good, Terry." - Welcome to the dark side, Darth Koeckritz. Генгис^evolving 09:20, 12 July 2009 (UTC)

In the lights of TK Oversighting the thing, would it be necessary for us to use capturebot on this page's CP links as well? [[User:K61824|]][[User_talk:K61824|]] 02:01, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

Sunday Insights?

Haven't seen any lately. Disappointed. Must investigate further, then figure out where the hell the tillde button is on this new keyboard. There. ENorman (talk) 20:32, 12 July 2009 (UTC)

Don't give up hope. There's still plenty of time this evening for Andy to get liquored up and hit the keyboard after the wife goes to bed. And the day is not completely sans insights. Here we learn that the most effective tool (insert joke here) against liberal deceit is cross-examination, "better than even the requirement of an oath". So perhaps we can look forward to a fleshing out of this cross-examination notion, what it is and how to use it. In the meantime, ponder this question: How can requiring an oath--which is only as good as the intentions of those taking it--be of any use against liberals, who are inherently deceitful?--WJThomas (talk) 23:26, 12 July 2009 (UTC)

I always thought the best tool against deceit was torture. How else can you get those deceitful liberals to say what you want them to say?--Tabris (talk) 04:09, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

Quote-mining? --Gulik (talk) 18:45, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

Wow, TK can still get more lame than he already is.

Look at his block reasons

• He, being one of the most liberal(no pun intended) user of range blocks, accuses people of having the same IP as other previously blocked users (shouldn't he have blocked the range already?).
• He blocked a range for one year with the following explanation: "Same IP(s) as previously blocked user(s): Rogers Cable, Toronto, ONT, Canada. Canada, soon to be renamed Trollville Republic." Why let it expire if you believe it is going to be all trolls?
• He believes that Proxy blocker isn't working (I can only assure you that they have Proxyblocker; see for yourselves if it still works by using an anon. proxy with static IP) and somehow France has something to do with Miami. Again, why let it expire?

It's not like as if we haven't seen non-expiring range blocks. [[User:K61824|]][[User_talk:K61824|]] 02:46, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

You assume TK has any idea what he is doing. As far as I can tell he bases his range-blocking on the old class network IP allocation system and he use those free online IP information site; some of which are out of date or giving you deliberately obscured information to try and get you to buy a product. He is basically blocking at will in some desperate hope that it hurts us in someway, failing to realise we would like it if he blocks all points of access to CP. I think people, particularly in the US, should try to use as many different ISP as possible because a) TK's blocking strategy would actually work that way and b) it would prevent the people they actually want to edit from editing, good old middle class Americans with little technical knowledge. - π 02:53, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

That assumes TK wants to block just for the sake of having it expire and block again? (I don't see otherwise why he wants to have a time limit for his range blocks, as he did have infinite range blocks a while back) [[User:K61824|]][[User_talk:K61824|]] 04:04, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

IP addresses do change hands on occasion. What is now a range belonging to a proxy site now might be sold to an ISP at some point in the future, especially as the IP4 space is getting used up so quickly. It actually shows TK is not completely insane with his blocking. - π 04:08, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

It's not worth creating a new section, but I like this little gem. He REALLY needed to get that straightened out, I guess. JArneal 06:42, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

He might not be insane with the blocking but it's hardly textbook sanity either. ^postate 14:43, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

Mildly amusing

Andy replaces^img "centre" with "center" in an article about a British local authority because it's "more phonetic". Right Mister Shlafly, now we know. ^{This message brought to you by: respond}_and honey 13:18, 11 July 2009 (UTC)

Isn't there a commandment or guideline about not making arbitrary changes between English and American spelling? Oh wait... that only applies to non sysops. On a related note... just checked the commanments and no 5 made me choke on my coffee: "Do not post personal opinion on an encyclopedia entry." Again, I suppose that doesn't apply to Andy and his Toy Boys wind-up thugs. --PsyGremlin_Whut? 13:55, 11 July 2009 (UTC)

(EC) So the whole we only allow American spelling we accept non-American spelling on British or Australian topics was just conservative deceit after all? Well, you could knock me down with a feather. Генгис^{RationalWiki GOLD member} 14:00, 11 July 2009 (UTC)

If Andy says it, it's not "personal opinion", it is the revealed Word of Ronald Reagan (and His sidekick, God). --Gulik (talk) 00:19, 12 July 2009 (UTC)

Isn't he the resident Rhodesian racist? Генгис^evolving 22:10, 11 July 2009 (UTC)

"Liberals also try to make the Rhodesian government look racist; it was not" Yep. Broccoli (talk) 22:14, 11 July 2009 (UTC)

Oh, sweet Jesus. An Ian Smith apologist. Now I've seen it all. I hope he's a parodist. TheoryOfPractice (talk) 22:24, 11 July 2009 (UTC)

Ich bin ein Rationalwikian. I feel so special next to Kennedy and Obama--Tabris (talk) 02:29, 12 July 2009 (UTC)

This guy looks like an Apartheid apologist. He'll probably be made an admin very soon and will force a pro-apartheid bias on Conservapedia (at first it'll be subtle, as in now, the articles on Ian Smith and members of the Afrikaner party don't talk about their racism), but soon it'll get worse, especially if Andy rubber stamps the articles. He has yet to edit Nelson Mandela's article, but I'd like to see his opinion on Mandela. --Crazyswordsman (talk) 03:50, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

Not so sure; CP has attracted apartheid apologists in the past, notably summer of 2008, and both Crocoite and Karajou were quick to bring down the bannhammer and the memory-holer as I recall. TheoryOfPractice (talk) 04:21, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

Well I was going to try and compare Conservapedia to the Fox Nation website (which seems to be full of people who don't care what positions Barack Obama takes; they openly oppose him because he's black). --Crazyswordsman (talk) 22:02, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

Reminds of this lovely site, that seems to yearn for pre-1994 South Africa. Extra lulz for all the references to "white liberals" by the conservative commentators. The again, given Ed's use of "black' and 'negro' he'll feel right at home there, amongst those who still use the k-word. Busy mailing Wordpress to see if I can get it shut down. --PsyGremlin_Whut? 10:43, 14 July 2009 (UTC)

End of an era

So farewell then, pointless law glossary template. You will be missed. For now at least, it does live on as a red link in all the still-extant empty Law Terms pages.-- Kriss Akabusi^{AAAWOOOGAAAR!!1} 14:14, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

So, is Andy now saying that viewing his website is punishable by hard time? I always thought it was criminally bad. --JeevesMkII ^{The gentleman's gentleman at the other site} 14:58, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

Still no update on the Main Page of the total page view count. Go on Andy, do it. Trumpet the 100 million, I'm sure you want to. You can just ignore the fact that about 40 million of those page views are bogus. Генгис^evolving 15:35, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

I read the whole 18 USC § 1030 thing, and I'm guessing Andy thinks pageviews are equal to monetary value. They would be if he had ads on his site, but considering he doesn't... no one is doing anything wrong by bumping page views. Candlewick 17:59, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

I love it, deleted and restored, only 2 hours later, law terms D already has over 19,000 page views! Clearly, one of CPs most popular pages. Z3ro^talk 16:10, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

My guess is that he's extremely confused about bandwidth costs. 18§1030 has nothing to do with bandwidth or pageviews on CP. I don't actually think Andy is this big of a hack (and I'm probably wrong), but I think this is a very (very) lazy scare tactic. ^{— Signed, by: Neveruse513 / Talk / Block} 18:09, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

I don't think Alexa is affected by page bumping as it measures the number of unique visitors. The only time that had a knock on effect was when the homosex top ten attracted attention. Генгис^evolving 18:28, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

Migration/homing ability

I have never understood the bee Andy gets in his bonnet concerning migration and homing abilities. The migrations in Africa are because animal species need to follow the rains so there is nothing "un-seen" or "non-materialist" about that. Also homing ability, does Andy think animals are homing via divine intervention? Ace McWickedⁱ⁹ 21:49, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

Exactly. He claims that homing/migration is "guided by non-material phenomena, such as intelligent design that might allow for abstract programming features or divine guidance or another mechanism that transcends materialism." Whatever the hell that means.--WJThomas (talk) 22:04, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

Better translation: "Humans use maps to assist themselves in finding their way. Since the animals does not have technology of the map, they must have divine guidance to where they are going." Stay tuned for the episode featuring Andy walk to the convenience store down the street using a map. [[User:K61824|]][[User_talk:K61824|]] 22:27, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

If gOD had made a perfect world then no-one would need to migrate anywhere. Migration is nature's way of circumventing another divine cock-up. Генгис^evolving 22:33, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

Seeing Andy's constant attempt at pseudo-linguistics reminds me more and more of the infamous skull experiment by Sam Morton. Morton wanted his hypothesis to be true, so he biased it to twist the results. Even if it was possible to label a word like "radar" or "steak" as conservative or liberal, he only updates the conservative page. But really, what's his hard-on with words and dictionaries lately? ENorman (talk) 23:23, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

If I didn't know better, I'd say he's been reading Derrida and the other deconstructionists/post-structuralists--he seems to be onto the idea that language creates/shapes reality, and in his mind the predominance of "conservative" language bolsters his idea that America is growing more conservative...TheoryOfPractice (talk) 23:38, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

You mean, because of his delusion that America/the world is becoming more conservative, he labels any word he possibly can "conservative", as long as his "layers" build in a nice neat 1-2-4-8 set of rows at a time? ħuman 23:54, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

Or he's trying to compile a newspeak dictionary and eventually whittle out liberal, moderate, and center-right words as well as anything more than 3 syllables or non-phonetic, until the entire English language can be focused into one word. "Derp" ENorman (talk) 00:02, 14 July 2009 (UTC)

Andy has always had a thing about the dictionary and language. Recently I have been going over some archives from 2007 and Andy complains that the dictionary is biased because he doesn't agree with the definitions of words. Obviously it is the dictionary that is incorrect. Ace McWickedⁱ⁹ 00:10, 14 July 2009 (UTC)

Slightly off topic, but a story where Andy somehow becomes king of the world would make for a good, modern 1984. It would be pretty scary. X Stickman (talk) 02:15, 14 July 2009 (UTC)

That would be lucid. Woah. Broccoli (talk) 08:42, 14 July 2009 (UTC)

Hang on, a though occurs. How does this geometrically increasing conservatism fit in with Andy's nutbar Christian view that the world is getting ever worse in preparation for the End Times, through which we may or may not be living now? Is it that in Eden, everyone was a liberal and since the fall the world has been getting progressively more conervative? Does not compute. --JeevesMkII ^{The gentleman's gentleman at the other site} 11:56, 14 July 2009 (UTC)

That would be cognitive dissonance due to Andy's complete lack of analyzing his own views. It's like Kent Hovind demanding fossils of every dinosaur that ever lived and wanting Proof that they are generationally sequential (i.e. every generation, every individual parent-offspring match), thus closing all the gaps. Since neither is physically possible, the result it that by his definition every new fossil generates a new gap. Thus, his demands are ultimately mutually exclusive. In Andy's case, though, there are three factors: world getting worse for End Times, Conservatism on the rise, Conservative good/Liberal bad, that form one of those impossible triangles (DECEIT!). If he applies his "logic" any further the whole house of cards will collapse. Kallium^talk 14:30, 14 July 2009 (UTC)

Anecdotal evidence WIGO

Now, this annoys me on multiple levels.

“”Sunday "record cool temperatures prevailed."[2] And what is the temperature on an historically hot July 13th in New Jersey tonight? Down to the low-50s. But don't expect Al Gore to return his $100 million and Nobel Prize that he obtained from the man-made global warming scam.

So what about the near record temperatures in the UK over the last few weeks? I mean, despite these people considering the atlantic and pacific oceans as the edge of the world and "here be dragons" beyond that, they don't call it global warming for nothing. (I realise that individual spikes in temperature aren't proof of climate change, but it's a good demonstration of the cherry picking). Secondly, regarding the Nobel Prize, it was split between Gore and the IPCC. And the prize amount is 10,000,000 SEK, which is only 1.2 million dollars. Andy is out by two whole orders of magnitude. Sorry for bringing him up on such a "minor" quibble, but I refuse to let these things go unchallenged. ^postate 13:16, 14 July 2009 (UTC)

Sorry, my bad, that last thing is only partially relevant as he states $100 million and Nobel Prize. I don't know what Gore has made from it, but surely with that logic then anyone who earns money through a scam should return their money, but I doubt CP will be demanding that of anyone on the Right any time soon. ^postate 13:18, 14 July 2009 (UTC)

HBOT

Here's a reason, Andy the "Engineer": molecular oxygen is corrosive! Good for short term, but destroys your lungs over a few days (i.e. bad). Does he think he's an expert biochemist now? And note how he doesn't "articulate a reason why" it should be supported. Geez. And by the way Andy, please check links when you post them- it's not hard. Both of the ones you put up yesterday don't work... Kallium^talk 14:40, 14 July 2009 (UTC)

Back in the day...when they first started putting premature babies onto respirators, they'd load 'em up with 100% pure O₂. This did wonders for the survivability of the babies but a bunch ended up blind, due to something called "the boxcar" effect, (retinal vessels would constrict starving the retina of oxygen, irony much?).

I also recall treatments (this is in the 1980's so it's not exactly "new!") of treating diabetic sores with a "boot" of HBO₂. In this procedure they actively wanted the "corrosive effects" of oxygen to debride the flesh surrounding the sore with a much higher precision than a surgeon could deliver. (Maggots also do this job nicely but we won't go into that.) 16:30, 14 July 2009 (UTC) CЯacke®

As a SCUBA diver...

You really do not want to breath oxygen under pressure. Despite what Andy wants to believe, oxygen under pressure is notorious for causing seizures, which under water is a REALLY BAD THING, and was one of the first things I learned not to do while SCUBA diving (not through first hand experience). While it is handy to have oxygen in the atmosphere, you do not want to breath it under pressure due to that blindness, seizures, and other issues it causes. The highest oxygen content we divers use is Nitrox, which is only 30 - 32% oxygen, and even that requires a modification of dive tables to avoid any risk of oxygen poisioning, and to accomadate...

Just something I stumbled upon...

I mentioned Dembski above. Andy himself just introduced Dembski as the first example^img of Bias in Wikipedia:

1. Wikipedia savages anyone who criticizes the theory of evolution, such as Dr. William Dembski, whom Wikipedia introduces with outlandish, unsupported quotations by liberal critics. For example, Wikipedia describes David H. Wolpert as a "prominent mathematician" in order to insert a scathing, unjustified quotation by him about Dembski. In fact, Wolpert does not even hold a math degree and his (non-math) doctorate was from the University of California at the weak Santa Barbara location. Dembski's PhD is in math from the preeminent University of Chicago.

And where are they standing today? Poor Wolperts without his math degree? Well, Wolperts is a consulting professor at Stanford (no doubt at its weak Stanford location) while Dembski is a research professor in philosophy at the (I suppose, preeminent) Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in Fort Worth, Texas.

Funny enough on its own, but the next example below it that Andy "improved" at the same time is truly hilarious:

1. Wikipedia completely omits Conservapedia from Wikipedia's ranking of the largest wikis,[5] even though Conservapedia easily qualifies. Wikipedia's censorship of Conservapedia from that entry remains even after the exposure of this bias.

First, it's NOT Wikipedia, you moron, it's wikimedia. Second, CP was mentioned there one hour ago (if I read my timestamps correctly). Third, they try to only count "good" content, not all the places Poor Ed stubbed his toe... or your essays in the mainspace. Or "Law Terms D", sadly. ħuman 01:07, 16 July 2009 (UTC)

Let's meld this thread with discussion below [6] Here the discussion is over Eric Foner [7], past president of both the American Historical Association and the Organization of American Historians.

I prefer Hitwin to Darlin myself. Ken, this is good, but Hitwin was better, more evocative, more clearly communicated your point.

First post at RW after having enough with CP. Didn't know where to put this so I'll leave it to someone else, just found it quite funny that Conservapedia decided to stick this news article up today (15 July 09):

We Told You So Department: Alert Al Gore! A new peer-reviewed study may shake the foundation upon which man-made global warming fears are based. The new study discovered "something fundamentally wrong with the way temperature and carbon are linked in climate models."

Which links to here as its sole source: [10]

Andy seems to think that peer review is like the church rewriting scripture, with a few people talking amongst themselves to decide what becomes Truth, which must be accepted by all others. If only he would realize that peer review does not end with publication. Or for that matter, neither does it begin with manuscript review. Kallium^talk 23:54, 15 July 2009 (UTC)

I'm no scientist, so I could be reading this wrong, but if you trawl through the links to get the original paper, does it not actually suggest that the CO2 sensitivity model may be wrong - as it estimates the temperature rise too low, as this new data suggests an undiscovered (until now) feedback system exacerbating the temperature rise (at my amateurish guess, perhaps the temperature increase caused by CO2 rising causing increased evaporation rates of the oceans, which increases water vapour in the atmosphere, and water vapour is another greenhouse gas, so this causes further temperature rises)? If I am reading this right, does this not mean that, far from global warming therefore not being an issue, it potentially could be even worse than has been thought? If so, does this not make actually make the global warming deniers even wronger? 92.18.163.100 21:08, 17 July 2009 (UTC)

Distortion 101 WIGO

Actually, as much as I feel ill for agreeing with Turquoise Knickers, the WIGO is wrong. In the CNS article, it says "Hoyer also said he could not think of any small business owners..." (para 2) and later "“I don’t know many small business men or women who are making,..." (para 5), so the borked news is actually right. TK, you owe me a beer. --PsyGremlin_Whut? 18:10, 16 July 2009 (UTC)

Except that TK quotes a source for income to small business, the reference is in regards to income to owners of small businesses, there is a significant difference there. tmtoulouse 18:21, 16 July 2009 (UTC)

Also his number isn't in the source - the source has a rather odd statistic about SB income (again, not the owners' incomes...). I think any SB owner who literally earns $280k is not likely to pull back their hiring practices because their taxes went up. They're doing just fine already. In my wild-ass-guess world, successful SB owners tend to make in the 100k range - which is a very nice income. ħuman 01:58, 17 July 2009 (UTC)

Well in the original source, both versions are used. Nevertheless, the only direct quote explicitely states "many" instead of "any", which is way more easily defensible for a politician. My guess would be that the source itself is wrong and that Hoyer only said "many". So I guess it makes TK...kinda right...but not convincing. He's correctly quoting the news source, which is itself (presumably) distorting the original statements. Anyway, what about the figure for the average income? Is there some "connect-the-dots" thinking in there? --81.80.239.162 08:01, 17 July 2009 (UTC)

Global warming

Gotta love their bastardization of this article. The article says CO₂ explains only some of the warming, and that something else is working in tandem with CO₂ levels. Conservapedia interprets it as "Al Gore was wrong and Global Warming is a lie!"

I have heard it somewhere (someone who do mathematical modelling) that a large part of the effect comes from water (which is still combustion products along with CO₂). Conservapedia will interpret it as "See, the water canopy helps warming up the earth right before the flood". [[User:K61824|]][[User_talk:K61824|]] 02:41, 17 July 2009 (UTC)

The H2O thing is iffy. Coal, for instance, contains no H, so does not contribute to atmospheric H2O. Oil and methane, however, do, and as such burning them might increase the atmospheric load of H2O. ħuman 06:06, 17 July 2009 (UTC)

Coal has some hydrogen - around 5% depending on the type. But yeah, fairly small compared to its carbon content. Ajkgordon (talk) 08:49, 17 July 2009 (UTC)

Water in the atmosphere has a highly warming effect (more then CO₂), but the amount of water present varies very little. If there is "too much", it just rains down. 157.193.206.103 09:23, 17 July 2009 (UTC)

Andy's Coin-Flipping WIGO

Don't want to come off as if it's a bad thing to tweak a WIGO written by someone else, but I wanted to make a point. This talk page is full of criticisms of WIGOs that are overly long, rambling, or beating dead horses. If there's a WIGO out there you don't like, then vote it down, but If you want to use it as an anchor to add an unrelated point or state something for the 666th time, like "Ho Ho, now they are saying that (blank) is a 'Conservative Word'!", please refrain, or at least write your own from scratch. --SpinyNorman (talk) 15:27, 17 July 2009 (UTC)

I think the point of that WIGO is that Aschlafly kicks out words that would actually fit quite nicely in order to maintain his notion that "new conservative words" are being "created" in an arithmetical progression. If a "new" (better) conservative word is found for the 17th century then one has to be dropped from the current list i.e. it is "no longer" a new conservative word. 17:13, 17 July 2009 (UTC) CЯacke®

Agreed - Andy would declare that "Mytzlplyk" is a conservative word if it maintained his pattern. What made me decide to WIGO this particular bit was that these were literally back-to-back comments by Andy negating and then approving different words having the same conservative basis, Christianity. Maybe it's not WIGO-worthy at all, but I was commenting here on the Talk page because it was expanded twice in ways that didn't seem to add anything to it. --SpinyNorman (talk) 19:00, 17 July 2009 (UTC)

Boston and PatrickD

"Actually, Bostonians are somewhat proud of their juxtaposition of the very old and the very new. Trinity happens to be very close to the all-glass Hancock tower (too close, in fact, construction of Hancock threatened to damage Trinity.) If I get into Boston, which isn't very common, since I live some distance away, I'll see if I can take a picture that juxtaposes the two in a striking way"

Walking down Boylston Street towards Copley "Square", one walks past the ancient (relatively) Trinity Church. Behind it is the Hancock Tower, a steel and glass edifice which is essentially a four-sided mirror. The view is extraordinary. One can see three sides of the church at once, since its rear is reflected by the tower. And the "frontal" view is not dominated by the 'scraper behind it, since the tower mostly reflects the sky. Boston is an amazing city to walk (it is best experienced that way, unlike most cities), and presents many hugely successful juxtapositions of "old" and new. (OK, the "old" ain't exactly Roman roads, but still, it's Merka).

WTF is Rob's new Userbox about?

The userbox links to a 2 line reply from 4 years ago. I'm not seeing anything showing that Chip Berlet or Fred Bauder were members of the Weather Underground. As far as I can tell from CP's article, in the 1980s Chip Berlet signed a petition also signed by some former Weather Underground members. I suppose in Rob's mind this means he was Bill Ayers mentor during the Pentagon bombing. God knows Rob's kooky when it comes to conspiracies, but can anyone explain what's going on? Stile4aly (talk) 05:31, 17 July 2009 (UTC)

Scoll down to the business about the NLG. Chip Berlet was VP of the NLG. Fred Bauder, Wikipedia Arbitration Committee Chairman was a member of the NLG and refused to recuse himself. Bernardine Dorhn was a member of the NLG.

The point is, I been on Dohrn's trail along time -- since she left my hometown to spread commie terror across the America & I heard everyday news reports about the hometown girl gone bad. If Obama & Ayers become collateral damage, well just too bad. RobS (talk) 17:07, 18 July 2009 (UTC)

Andy and Dinosaurs Lizards

Never mind that Andy thinks dinosaur should still be called "lizards", what is even stoopider is the fact that he thinks 1841 is a "suprisingly late date". The first actual scientifically recognised fossil considered to be an extinct species was in 1824. So really not that late at all. Ace McWicked^Necron99 20:25, 19 July 2009 (UTC)

But dinosaurs were contemporary with antedeluvian man and may even still exist. Генгис^evolving 20:35, 19 July 2009 (UTC)

And before 1841 they were known as "dragons". Ace McWicked^Necron99 20:41, 19 July 2009 (UTC)

Their loss in teh Flood of 1823 forced teh Christian Scientist Engineers to invent bulldozers, cranes, and tanks to replace them. ħuman 21:49, 19 July 2009 (UTC)

Well, Andy is more correct in calling them lizards because "dinosaur" literally translated from Greek (I think) is "fearfully great/terrible lizard".

As to why they're aren't called lizards, well.. they're effing scary compared to most of today's lizards (with the exception of the Komodo Dragon). 72.88.129.0.24 (talk) 23:46, 19 July 2009 (UTC)

If we generalize like that, would not wolves be simply dogs and tigers be simply cats?--Tabris (talk) 01:43, 20 July 2009 (UTC)

It's well beyond that level of generalisation-- lizard is not a synonym for reptile and dinosaurs were *not* lizards. It's more like calling birds lizards or hamsters marsupials in its inanity. Please look at the link I posted for fuller explanation.Beastiepaws (talk) 01:57, 20 July 2009 (UTC)

To further clarify and throw around some vocabulary, lizards are in Lepidosauromorpha, while dinosaurs were in Archosauromorpha. Crocodiles are in Archosauromorpha, as are birds. Lizards, tuatara and snakes are all in Lepidosauromorpha. Of course, on CP, I'd be accused of using "jargon" (ie, big words that confuse Andy) for using actual scientific terms.

Hence, "Reptiles and lizards are closely related, but not the same", the statement being applied at the infraclass level of Archosauromorpha/Lepidosauromorpha.

Most mornings I give the dinosaurs here a dish of fresh water to splash around in. Sometimes they get a new spray of millet seed to pick at. They really like the seeds from the stem end of a bell pepper. They hate it when I trim their toenails, but it's for their own good. One little guy has a bruised foot because he got tangled up in a wicker nesting structure, so I need to keep an eye on him. He's still pretty perky and I hope he'll be OK after it passes, but you never can tell.

(Unindent) Just to clear this up, then I'm gone. There are two major clades of dinosaurs, Saurischia (lizard-hipped) and Ornithiscia (bird-hipped). Ironically, the bird-hipped dinosaurs did not evolve into birds, its just a case where ornithischians independently evolved the posteriorly oriented pelvis. The saurischians were the ones that evolved into birds. More specifically, a clade known as Maniraptora. In reality know, if we could get rid of Feduccia and Ruben and all the other BANDits, birds are technically reptiles. Dinosaurs evolved from a common archosaurian reptile during the early Late Triassic. From there, the Ornithischians (like Triceratops, etc.) died out at the end K-T extinction event. The Saurischians, on the other hand, and more specifically, Maniraptora, evolved filament-like integumentary structures that then developed into true pennaceous feathers. And of course, we now know, as a FACT, that Velociraptor was feathered. So, dinosaurs are reptiles. Some evolved into birds, (ie. Maniraptor split into two clades, Eumaniraptora and basal Avialae), and some died out as reptiles.

Now, from Maniraptora, basal birds such as Arcaheopteryx and Yanornis appeared. Archaeopteryx shows deinonychosaurian features such as a long tail bone and a hyper-extended second toe. This, along with the fact of feathered dinosaurs, we know that modern day birds arose from dinosaurs. To sum it all up, birds came from dinosaurs, but not all dinosaurs evolved into birds. So, you can also assume (and this is going farrrrrrrrrrr back, that birds are reptiles.) Oh, and you're right. Dinosaurs are not lizards, but a subgroup of archosaurian reptiles, the Dinosauriformes.

For more information on feathered dinosaurs and why creationists get it wrong, see this article. And no, I'm not coming back, this is just my statement.--Beishanlong ^grandis 16:24, 20 July 2009 (UTC)

HA- their citation for the myth "that there is a vast right-wing conspiracy" is an article by O'Reilly about- I kid you not- the vast left-wing conspiracy. Of course, in the article, Bill's only definition of "left-wing" conspiracy is his perceived general movement of the media to the "far left". In other words, the right is by definition Right, and people know it, so if more than one person disagrees, it's a socalist conspiracy! Aaaaahhh! Kallium^talk 14:46, 19 July 2009 (UTC)

But of course scientific consensus doesnt' matter for "The claim that abortion and breast cancer are unrelated", "They claim that humans and apes have a common ancestor", "They claim that intelligent design is not a science and has no evidence". Selective much? As for Andy's thing about proper qualifications (irony, I know): "They claim that no climatologist or physicist rejects global warming, despite the fact that the founder of The Weather Channel rejects global warming, as do thousands of other scientists."

What is with Andy's sudden hatred for The Daily Show and Comedy Central?

Actually, I think Colbert's tactic of embarrasing people on his show would backfire in an Andy interview:

Colbert:"So everything bad that ever happened ever was the fault of liberals?" (audience laughs)

Andy:"Absolutely."

Having been out-parodied by Andy, Colbert tries a different tactic:

Colbert:"But conservatives in the South were the primary supporters of segregation in the sixties, right?"

Andy:"No, the liberal academia teach you that conservatives were responsible. Liberals were the ones who were racists." (Both Colbert and audience are in awestruck silence)-- JArneal 00:16, 17 July 2009 (UTC)

8 hours of sleep + 8 hours of school + 1 hour of food + 15 minutes of toilet + 30 minutes of shower + 1 hour of faking like we're doing homework = 18.75 hours. Extracurriculars are at least 2 hours at my school and parties are about 4?.. So 3 * 5 = 15 hours in the school week. 15 * 4 = 60 hours per month not devoted to daily activities. Sure there's the weekend, but that just means more parties, sex, dating, liberal activities.. like socializing and making jokes (as opposed to being tactful for the conservatives).

I no longer get any of those television stations due to the government's mandated DTV transition. 3 hours per month of Television watching for me.

Wow, the people at your school got 8 hours of sleep? most of the people at mine usually get somewhere in the 3-5 hour range.

Childish

Doesn't this study that Ken is promoting confirm that intelligent design is a childish idea based on your own preconceptions and incredulity and that creationist are just having trouble letting go of ideas that formed when young? Children also have trouble dealing with the idea that the world is a sphere because they are use to the idea of things falling "down". - π 07:50, 21 July 2009 (UTC)

Ken: So children are stupid? "children infer from their own observations that there must be a Creator" Fucking retards, maybe. I was raised in a fossil-collecting (South Wales), Book-reading family. I never "observed" that there must be a ceiling kitteh! Only babies get their Daddies confused with Goddies.

The CMI article itself reads like it was written by Kendoll's more literate cousin. The quotes, the random youtube video thrown in...

It would explain a lot. --JeevesMkII ^{The gentleman's gentleman at the other site} 10:22, 21 July 2009 (UTC)

I tweaked the WIGO after reading the article, because it made me laugh on two levels. First, the kids were shown pictures of things and given only three responses to choose from for each: "God made it", "People made it", and "Nobody knows". When you restrict kids to those three options, is their response surprising? Second, I love how a bunch of ID proponents are using a test that forced "God" to be the only answer for "design" to keep acting as if ID is science that has nothing to do with promoting Judeo-Christian beliefs. All the survey proves is that young kids have great imaginations - if you added "Magic people" or "Fairies" as options along with "God", I wonder how many kids would have chosen the former over the latter. Ask the survey of older, educated kids, and you'll mostly get two answers: "God" from the kids raised to believe in God over fairies and other magic people, or "This survey is B.S.", because "Nobody knows" is not the same as "Natural forces as explained by science". --SpinyNorman (talk) 16:39, 21 July 2009 (UTC)

I wonder what the results would be if "Nature Made It" were added to the list. Also, what would happen if "God Made It" was removed, and "Nature Made It" was added instead? Figures don't lie, but liars do figure... Jimaginator (talk) 19:56, 21 July 2009 (UTC)

Is "non-theistic" right in any case? I know there's not that much Christianity there, but I'm not sure if there's no theism at all. --Kels (talk) 17:18, 21 July 2009 (UTC)

I think Shinto is pantheistic, but I also think it's more of tradition than actual religion. Christianity does have some presence though, so non-theistic is not the word to use for Japan. ENorman (talk) 19:59, 21 July 2009 (UTC)

Even if it's tradition rather than religion per se, wouldn't it be theistic since it does involve spirits and gods to some degree. I gathered being theistic didn't just mean Christian, it meant worldviews involving any deities. --Kels (talk) 20:04, 21 July 2009 (UTC)

Therefore, in Ken's own words, he's admitting that religion is exploiting children's incredulity, which is further confirmed in the bible. [[User:K61824|]][[User_talk:K61824|]] 00:39, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

I'm sure most of you have heard this argument, but it's till one favorites: essentially the arguments goes if you take someone with no exposure to modern technology (they usually give the example of an African Tribesman or someone from the Rainforests of South America) and show them a car, they may explain it many ways: Maybe magic is running the car, maybe the driver is a god, maybe the car is a god and favors the driver. However, once you explain the principles behind it and show how each piece comes together, they will realize that there is no supernatural force behind it. The difference between this tribesman and the religious? The tribesman accepted an explanation whereas the religious hold fast to their beliefs. Still one of my favorites cause it makes religious people squirm. SirChuckB^{A product of Affirmative Action} 06:59, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

Blocked IPs at CP

From Dec 2008 - Jun 2009, TK and friends have done a marvelous job by blocking 3,500,000 IPs each month. But in Jul 2009, they can't keep up the speed - though numerous vandals use the ongoing absence of Guard Dog to provide him with block reasons.

By looking at a longer span of time, and dividing the number of accounts that stick by the number of total accounts created, it would be possible to see a percentage of accounts that stick. From there, we could get a trend line for when the chance of an account surviving starts to approach 10%, 5%, zeroooooo.....Jimaginator (talk) 15:49, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

Ahhh memories

Due to CP being dead in the water and my fanatical need to keep myself occupied, I have being going over old CP archives and found some hilarious things I had forgotten. For example I refound the page where Andy states he'll debate any atheist or liberal anytime before getting throughly nailed by AmesG who calls him out on it. Great laughs.

Was that when Andy demanded that Ames place a deposit? That was wonderful. Corry (talk) 22:24, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

Ray Comfort obviously remembered that when he asked Thunderf00t for a deposit as well. Генгис^evolving 22:25, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

It was originally posted somewhere on RW but this talk page comment^img from Andy always makes me laugh.  Lily ^{Inspirate me.} 22:34, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for the capture Toast but I already have a screencap.  Lily ^{Inspirate me.} 22:40, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

it's just a habit. And it might stop TK vanishing things if he knows they've been captured anyway. ^{This message brought to you by: respond}_and honey 22:50, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

He has vanished it already, Hi TK!!! You dishonest prick! I have also discovered a wealth of missing talk page archives, masses of them suddenly...vanished! Ace McWicked^Necron99 23:37, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

What a slanderous toe-rag I hope he gets sued for that. He forged (not very well as it had already been established that it was a comment from Andy) the page contents which were "Sir, please stop uploading junk. An encyclopedia does not need multiple pictures of processed pork. I'm deleting those images.--Aschlafly 14:47, 2 May 2007 (EDT)  Lily ^{Inspirate me.} 23:58, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

TK's on a mission to get every mention of his real name removed from RW, and he doesn't care whose innocent lives he fucks up along the way. And Andy, of course, is oblivious - dang, Andy's building an encyclopedia! He's too busy to worry about trivia. Although, TK, you should leave some blocking for Andy, since he finds it very satisfying. ħuman 03:20, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

He ought to go for someone else then: we don't come in till number 9 on google. ^{This message brought to you by: respond}_and honey 06:01, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

Only because Proxima keeps copying our articles. Could we not have a repeat of these privacy policy violations again? - π 06:09, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

Is she still doing that? I saw no evidence of such on the g search oogle for Terry Koeckritz. Granted, it is a habit she has, of putting things on every wiki she has access to, but in this case? ħuman 06:58, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

Really? I got the Liberapedia mirror of the article before ours. Granted their's is in mainspace whilst ours is buried in some subpage off the main wiki contents, but still. We need to use the Terry Koeckritz template more, despite the disadvantage that it takes longer to type. - π 07:50, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

I don't subscribe to the view that TK (Terry Koeckritz) wants to get his name removed from here. I think he doesn't give rat's arse about it. What he does want is to make people think he wants it removed, that way he can pull the strings for his childish amusement. He knew that GAmes Caius didn't have any power to get it removed here and that the mob would never allow it - he just wanted to torment our former young friend. Of course, because Terry Koeckritz is a lying (proven), plagiarising (proven), treacherous (proven), deceitful (proven) sociopath (apparently), our erstwhile colleague was forced to leave and concentrate on his blog. TK doesn't care about his name as it doesn't make any difference to his real world life. All these wikis and forums are just a massive RPG for a sad old Walter Mitty character stuck at home looking after his aged mother. No one with a proper job would be able to follow TK's editing pattern. The fact that the Erasmus page was taken down just shows that he's so bored that he needs to monitor us all the time. Being demonised is much more rewarding to a sociopath than being ignored. Генгис^evolving 07:11, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

Eh, you're probably correct on that. Ugly www links mean nothing to tired old men like us; to up and coming young lawyers, they're a pisser. Oh, and you forgot to link to MMORPG. ħuman 07:15, 23 July 2009 (UTC)
