Posted by terRAPIN station on Tue Nov 24 13:44:02 2015, in response to Re: Today is fifty years since the big northeast blackout, posted by BrooklynBus on Mon Nov 16 19:24:58 2015. So what am I making up?What he said. He is directly disputing what I stated.Obviously. You said that the big northeast blackout happened 50 years ago, and he said that no, it happened 12 years ago. For the same reason your post was not wrong, neither is his post. You were only talking about the 1965 blackout. He was only talking about the 2003 blackout. If your original post had said: "There was a blackout 50 years ago today" and he had replied: "No, it was 12 years ago August" then he would have been wrong. But that's not what happened. I already told you the most likely scenario. He was lighting ribbing you for the ignorance you displayed in the phrasing of your subject line. It's a common tactic used here and elsewhere on the internet. Most people are able to spot it and understand it. You, OTOH, apparently have no concept of it. So again I ask you what shit am I making up?What he said. |
