Posted by terRAPIN station on Tue Nov 24 13:30:05 2015, in response to Re: Today is fifty years since the big northeast blackout, posted by BrooklynBus on Mon Nov 16 11:53:34 2015. Fact 3. It is obviously clear R 36 was unaware of the 1965 blackout. The reason is unimportant.No it's not. And has been explained to you many times, it's quite likely he DID know about it. R36 stated that the northeast blackout occurred in August not November and 12 years ago, not 50. Therefore he had to be unaware of any previous northeast blackout.No, that's NOT what he said. Let's try this: what if he considers the 1965 blackout to be "a blackout" but he considers the 2003 blackout to be "the big northeast blackout"? (The reason is unimportant, as you say.) Then what he wrote makes perfect sense. So since I showed a scenario where what he wrote makes perfect sense, then it's clear that some doubt exists. Having encountered previous blackout threads is also irrelevant because he could have temporarily forgot and made a hasty posting without thinking.Just like he could have not forgotten and not made a hasty post without thinking and knew full well about the 1965 blackout and knew full well what he was doing. Therefore, since both options are possible, DOUBT EXISTS. That said, the reasoning for why he probably knew about 1965 is much stronger than the reasoning for why he may not have known about 1965. We've shown that. Anyway I do not see him responding that he was aware of the 1965 blackout.Probably because he's enjoying this and wants to see you squirm more. |
