Posted by BrooklynBus on Mon Nov 16 10:05:57 2015, in response to Re: Today is fifty years since the big northeast blackout, posted by Spider-Pig on Mon Nov 16 09:43:38 2015. Strawman!Check your reading comprehension. Where did I refer to the 1977 blackout as the "big northeast backout"? I didn't. I simply said we had a blackout in 1977. It is obviously clear from his post as I showed you that he was unaware of the 1965 "big northeast blackout" as it was referred to. He did that by erroneously correcting me saying. It occurred only 12 years ago and not fifty, and that it occurred in August, not November. There is nothing unclear in his statement. He is denying the occurrence of a 1965 blackout and that needed to be corrected which I did. Yes i was harsh because you don't accuse someone of having inaccurate facts when you are the one who is wrong. There was no benefit of the doubt to give him because he was very clear in his remark. Your assumption that he knew about the 1965 blackout just because he has posted here for a long time is also not wise, because even if he is old enough to remember it, he might have grown up in another part of the country. Posting here for a long time proves nothing in this case. |
