no, but emotive as well as fintan and i. and your alledged arguements
boiled down to your bored opinions on the matter which you had already
encountered and were too
superior to discuss again.

So first you castigate for not discussing the articles, then when others
respond
you're abusive and ill-mannered. If I find the articles fairly uninteresting
because
I've covered similar ground in the past in the psychology side of Artificial
Intelligence then why should I not say so? Or is your problem that I didn't
become pointlessly enthralled by what, to me, is more of the same that I've
seen
before. Sure, there were some interesting parts but as I said at the
beginning of
my post I had gone through the articles fairly quickly and the impression
that I
got was what I stated. If you disagree then say so and I'll happily engage
in
conversation where I have the time. You're abuse does nothing more than make
myself and others want ignore any future postings from you.
You and Fintan put yourselves forward as mystics and poets, but all I've
seen
from both of you recently is emotive rantings. This isn't the mystic way but
the
way of the fool and the spoilt brat who have no regard whatsoever for other
peoples opinions and beliefs. If you're not prepared to argue reasonably
with
others, on a forum which values reasonable and reasoned argument, then why
bother posting at all. You'll do much better in the newsgroups where this is
standard procedure. However if you want an argument then try reposting and
when I have time in between looking after my kids, going to work, spending
time
with my partner, practicing Iaido (which has a strongly mystical side) and a
bunch of other tasks I'll be quite happy to argue with you. But then again
you'll
probably think I'm being condescending!
