The article is not fake Bill it was written by me ,thanks Paul. I’ve never checked the comment on this before now. It’s amazing that some people can read this and the only thing they can get from it is hurt feelings from the use of the word nut case. Nut case is used a lot in Ireland, the mentally ill don’t seem to mind as it is only directed at people with full mental faculties that are extremely annoying. We don’t verbally abuse the mentally ill in Ireland, if this happens a lot where you are I suggest you bring it up with the authorities.

Bottom-line is its offensive, disgraceful in fact, whether you chose to like it or not. One has to be sensitive and respectful in this matter. You better not be forgetting about such things. Otherwise you have no real footing for talking about anything else. (Be they important or not.)

And as far as I can see Michael didn’t write this section. (Did you even read this article at all?) Also it is a matter of taste, not just about being p.c. Its not in good taste to use such an expression, again no matter what the context may be.

Btw, article is FAKE sounding, for some reason that’s hard to pin down exactly why.

just sharing and did not know where else on this site…..Just a heads up in case you had not noticed…..two heads of state died. Starting Saturday Kim Jong ll and now reported today Vaclav Havel.

Perhaps this would be a good time to keep an eye open?

Best Regards

Bill, but when did calling a spade, a spade become offensive? Are you an American by chance? The only place I know of where you can sue for hurt feelings. I can almost guarantee that there has been no complaints by the mentally ill on Michael’s use of the word. The truth is harsh and not politically correct, you better get used to that.

You probably get this alot: why no photos of the Contactors or the insides of the saucers he rode in? Why is the ‘woman’ holding the ray-gun mostly hidden; her hand looks like just any woman’s hand. The narrator makes the point that the ‘gun’ is not any kind of toy-gun they could find; this begs the question of home-fabrication. A skilled wood or metal-smith could make one of those in a couple of hours.

And really, showing him fire the gun would be just fine as evidence without the ‘in your face’ consequences that Horn describes.

Probably you would have written it better after all.

Use of slang ‘Nut-case’ – is offensive to the mentally ill.

Is low-grade to use it , imo. no matter what the context.

Another, good planning I say. A good play. I assume when you go to worlds, you have to investigate what the safest possible route would be. See, this is why Eduardo is awesome.^^

Despite the decades-long stack of compelling evidence presented by Meier, people still demand more “proof.” When faced with reality, shortsighted zealots are incapable of acting accordingly, whereas reasonable, honest human beings will try and verify the evidence at hand. I guess most people fall in the first category.
