I honestly don't know what's going on with > him. He's usually one of the most intelligent people that posts here. The reason I tend to believe him is that it's perfectly consistent with the part of Scott's story about why he went to the "group" (mob?) for suggestions about an alternative. If you consider the possibility of a simple misunderstanding then both stories are perfectly consistent. Also, Scott keeps saying "show me the post" although he knows full well the conversation was in a chat, not a newsgroup post. That suggests to me he knows there was some degree of misunderstanding or misstatement on his own part that he wants to avoid discussing. And the final straw is the mob mentality. Mobs are almost always wrong and that's what we have here. The most vocal are people who are not a party to the agreement but just see a chance to call attention to themselves and their own high moral character. Kind of like Bill OReilly. I had skillz (and any threads responding to his posts) killfilled from long, long ago. So I never saw the discussion about the bet. I've only seen the recent discussions. Based on character alone I'd tend to believe Scott over Skillz. But in this case, the particular fact pattern causes me to lean towards a very simple misunderstanding on both parts. I don't think anybody welched. ______________________________________________________________________ * kill-files, watch-lists, favorites, and more.. www.recgroups.com

I don't think anybody welched. Yeah, and pedophiles who are 'lured' into trying to fuck little kids are 'victims' of 'mob mentality' Anyone who thinks Gary is 'smart' needs to ask him about internet predators. On second thought read for yourself: http://groups.google.com/group/rec.gambling.poker/browse_thread/thread/9b5fb2a6ead6b608/9b6eff5f5b345b3c?lnk=gst&q=predator#9b6eff5f5b345b3c ======================================== You must not think me necessarily foolish because I am facetious, nor will I consider you necessarily wise because you are grave. ======== BOOM byae John ---- RecGroups : the community-oriented newsreader : www.recgroups.com

Can't we organize a mass ignore of skillz? I would certainly be for that. If anything warrants it, it's his welching, but just replying to him calling him a welching slut or scumbag or whatever really isn't doing anything. -- "Actually, I will read Jason's posts too.
