A Few Good Strawmen
Incident on a Small Blog Page

or how about,
Tequila Mockingblogger?

Good afternoon to you CSTEELE...

Gee that was a little unkind ol' boy ? On retirement a detective sergeant if you don't mind, but there again you narcissists do tend to be a little bereft of facts at times as well as being unacquainted with fidelity and veracity eh ?

What are you trying to do CSTEELE ? Pass yourself off to everyone, as a legally trained individual, I certainly hope not. It just might prove to be a perilous course of conduct for you to follow you know ?

As a dilettante, your feeble attempts of dramatizing the court sequence, is not at all disparate with that often engineered by a biased media ? With their many exaggerated accounts found within a ever diminishing broadsheet.

Though prima facie, your efforts hitherto though laudable, are a tad flawed, though to be expected with an injudicious thespian as your good self ?

Yeah, I know what you mean, o sung wu.

There are quite a few posters around here who dismiss the expertise of those who are trained and qualified in their various disciplines....why some even refer to the practice of taking guidance from climate scientists as "continued blathering about unfounded climate change".

I'm sure you'd agree, given your respect for "trained individuals" that it helps your case if you have partaken of instruction and have a modicum of expertise in your field.

Now that o sung wu is here, perhaps its an episode of Law and Disorder?

I reckon the detective should probably figure out who started the whole court thing before dressing down only one suspect.

Dear o sung wu,

I was not seeking 'laudable' rather striving for laughable. I also hope I have managed to reach the appropriate levels of pomposity.

Just for the record I have no exposure to the legal world and I have never been a prosecutor, however at some stage in your career I am quite positive you would have been a constable or shall we say a jaffa.

I do know m'lord is not even a term used any more in Australia.

It is all completely make believe.

As to what I am 'attempting to do', this is for light relief only. Both sides are pretty well entrenched and as you say global warming on OLO has become a “thoroughly monotonous topic” but it can be a lot of fun if a little effort is put in.

Just for the record though this is the second post where you have been swinging the big stick. SPQR and spindoc went hard at it from the beginning so probably deserve a little touching up but I am of the mind to give you the benefit of the doubt. I am never shy of receiving or giving a bit of a dig but as to whether this escalates, needlessly I would have thought, I leave in your court.

Now please excuse me, the horse hair awaits.

Good evening POIROT...

Good one, touche ! Got to give you that one.

I must say in all seriousness, I really don't know ? There is much credible scientific material out there in support of a changing climate ? With such a body of evidence, it would be quite hard to ignore it.

Conversely, it would now appear there are those who are considered equally as eminent, even venerable within the scientific community who are now refuting it. Who's right, I wouldn't have a clue ?
