You can create characters in appropriate contexts. But on SubChat, where one is supposed to be having discussions about rail transit, being in character is inappropriate and not an excuse for making racist and/or anti-Semitic statements, as you have just done. And even so, that has nothing to do with my being factually right and your being factually wrong. The fact that it pisses you off so much that I'm so often factually right and that you and a few others are so often revealed to be factually wrong just serves as a huge incentive for me to continue my good work. So do carry on. |

They are caled "conspiracy theories" as a way of discrediting them because it has a negative connotation. There is nothing wrong with believing a theory. All it means is that it has not yet been proven. Conspiracies also do exist. So there should be nothing negative about believing a conspiracy theory but it is.When I said believed the Warren Commission, I meant believed it when the results were released. I wasn't saying you believed it then and no longer do. I meant you still believe it. |

Of course you didn't. You're not very observant, and you don't even TRY. Before posting this: "Am I the only one who noticed that?" -- you should have typed "blackout" into Google News to see if there were any articles published that day about its anniversary. Then you wouldn't have looked so foolish by thinking that you were the only one who remembered it. |

I am not persuing this discussion with you.Yes you are. At least I admit my mistakes.No, you generally don't. You have not admitted that your original statement about 'the "fact" that taking 7 or 8 minutes to exit 34 St-Hudson Yard would result in low usage of the station' was completely wrong. You have not admitted that saying you 'don't believe what I post' is completely wrong. You just go around in circles and keep changing the discussion when someone tries to disprove your fallacious statements.1. I generally don't make fallacious statements. 2. I don't go around in circles, no matter what the discussion is. 3. You can't show any examples of either of those things. 4. You're wrong. 5. You won't admit it. That worked out well. |

I didn't believe anything in 1964.And I use "conspiracy theory" not in the interest of discrediting it, but to establish that these "theories" have already been discredited. As for that which has been proven, it has been conclusively proven, to the extent these things can be proven, that Oswald acted alone, and fired the gun from the Texas Schoolbook Depository, which gunshot killed Kennedy. Believing otherwise is either foolish or ignorant. |

There was no great rise in births in mid August 1966.http://www.snopes.com/pregnant/blackout.asp When you think about it, it makes little sense. Most people (in that era, most men) were at work or trying to get home and could not have really fathered any children. |

How could someone know what you were talking about? You said "big northeast blackout." So why is it surprising that he "thought" you meant the actual largest blackout to strike the northeast?

At that time 50 years ago, it was called, "the big northeast blackout" because it was the biggest be in history at that time affecting 30 million people.Now if he would have said, there also was another blackout, 12 years ago that was bigger, there would have been nothing wrong with that. But he denied that there was a blackout fifty years ago just because he never heard of it and that was wrong and incorrect. I merely corrected him and rightly so. And you sound like you are the one who is senile because your comment "The world didn't end when you got old and possibly senile" makes no sense at all. |

I know what happened because I can read. The details of the Kennedy assassination have been studied in extreme detail and what actually happened is known.Only one "version of events" could possibly be true. Therefore, every "version" besides the actual facts is fictional. |
