Re: Frankly... - (Arkadiy) - (26) - June 3, 2002, 10:50:39 AM EDT

Which boils down to... - (bepatient) - (25) - June 3, 2002, 11:28:10 AM EDT

You're revealing your assumptions. - (Brandioch) - (24) - June 3, 2002, 12:52:25 PM EDT

What assupmtions. - (bepatient) - (23) - June 3, 2002, 03:44:54 PM EDT

You're getting closer. - (Brandioch) - (22) - June 3, 2002, 04:24:52 PM EDT

So we should... - (bepatient) - (21) - June 3, 2002, 04:38:35 PM EDT

It's called a "clue". You may not recognize it. - (Brandioch) - (20) - June 3, 2002, 05:41:26 PM EDT

Yep...there's that losing spirit - (bepatient) - (19) - June 3, 2002, 10:45:40 PM EDT

That's the spirit Bill.. - (Ashton) - June 4, 2002, 12:11:38 AM EDT

So what you're saying is your recommendation is a total fail - (Brandioch) - (17) - June 4, 2002, 01:14:08 AM EDT

Nope....you're confusing yours and mine. - (bepatient) - (16) - June 4, 2002, 02:55:24 AM EDT

Sounds like your Alzheimer's is kicking in with a vengence. - (Brandioch) - (15) - June 4, 2002, 01:01:45 PM EDT

Then please, oh wise one...enlighten us with your plan. - (bepatient) - (14) - June 4, 2002, 01:30:28 PM EDT

You need to brush up on our criminal justice system. - (Brandioch) - (13) - June 4, 2002, 02:32:17 PM EDT

Pretty weak. - (bepatient) - (11) - June 4, 2002, 03:36:48 PM EDT

Net result: demonstration that this is a genuine Conundrum - (Ashton) - (1) - June 4, 2002, 04:04:28 PM EDT

Defense in depth. - (Brandioch) - June 4, 2002, 04:18:14 PM EDT

Yep, you've got Alzheimer's. - (Brandioch) - (8) - June 4, 2002, 04:09:46 PM EDT

Hatred, not at their level - (orion) - (18) - June 3, 2002, 01:03:56 PM EDT

We are as bad as they are and... as good. - (screamer) - (17) - June 3, 2002, 02:22:06 PM EDT

That type of thought process used to amaze me. - (Brandioch) - (13) - June 3, 2002, 02:51:42 PM EDT

But Brandioch... - (Simon_Jester) - June 3, 2002, 03:14:57 PM EDT

Can you locate the USofA on a map? - (Brandioch) - (7) - June 3, 2002, 07:00:10 PM EDT

Doesn't work - (bepatient) - June 3, 2002, 10:55:06 PM EDT

Yeah... - (screamer) - (3) - June 3, 2002, 11:14:22 PM EDT

Minor disagreement. - (Brandioch) - June 4, 2002, 01:52:34 AM EDT

Close... - (Simon_Jester) - (23) - June 3, 2002, 06:24:09 PM EDT

Dear sir, if you are referring to moi - (screamer) - (22) - June 3, 2002, 11:45:32 PM EDT

Maybe more ironical than ha-ha? - (Ashton) - June 4, 2002, 12:46:45 AM EDT

I think it is hilarious. - (Brandioch) - (18) - June 4, 2002, 02:04:43 AM EDT

Ah, but there is a difference. - (Brandioch) - (10) - June 4, 2002, 01:16:16 PM EDT

C'mon now... - (bepatient) - (9) - June 4, 2002, 01:34:03 PM EDT
