Brad,
Is English your first language?

Very interesting, but...... is English your first language? It was a civil enough question. Judging by the tone of your answer, I guess so. I never intended to insult. I GENUINELY CAN'T TELL.

I am sorry Mark, yes it is. I was stung with a search bot on Taxacom where I tried to maintain some class posting but SEEING THAT fail in real time and not being able to get even California to see what I write after my poor performance on True Seekers I have not given any slack.
I learned a little Zarwa before I left for Congo and my high school German is dark to non existent. One of the reasons that I have a rather opaque posting pattern is that I have contined to sound out most of my thought prior to coming on line so usually I am able to to improvise most of my comments. I also have some videos both my own and taken off the TV that I watch to see if anything changes (in terms of what I think when I watch them) althoug I do very little of this any more. I was rather upset when I was able to be fairly even handed to creation and evolution IN TERMS OF CONCEPTS on TV but could not maintain as high a standard when it came to communicating the same on the net.
But it is true that since I have been working pretty much on my own version of "neophenogeneis" since the late 80s I have not attempted to become any more cultured in terms of language. I got off that possibility when it was clear to me that Deconstruction could be the exemplar of individual development divisions for any statistical purpose in biometry but Derrida denied to my question (in person) any interest or possibility in science connected to his name. I stoped looking at Derrida's Origin of Geometry of Husserl, cut off my interest in language and stoped worrying if Husserl had stolen any philosophy from Cantor in Hall and went straight ahead with what writing in English did get over at Cornell, namely that there is a larger plenum or categories of different diverity in biology than any in any computer science. Only Wolfram seems to be running counter to this claim. He may be correct but then again the Pope's 96 magesterium(sp?) would need the answer it already had in writing by me and continued in terms by Gottlieb somewhat since before the 90s and the social anthropology would have to not exist that does post-911. May-be, some time later this will happen. I certianly hope so.

You make my point for me....
Mark

I still have no clue as to what you're on about. It's serious headwork getting through one of your posts, Brad. I really don't mean to be rude (honestly!), I've said it before & I'll say it again, I really am the last person who should complain of others diction, punctuation etc. But you are simply unreadable.
And It's not just me, mate.
Do you proof read your posts before posting? I recommend typing in word or something, then pasting into the dialogue box.

I would have to know if you "caught" my comment on the "table" to be sure it is safe to shave with your RAZOR. The capter that Croizat wrote on Catholicism and Panbiogeography devovled without evolving into the dendogram vs themnogram issue that Mayr's failure to Haeckel out his sypmatry per gradient by the New Zelanders but I give you credit that the contour you are on would not be permitted to be terminated here. We will see.

I need a translator.
It is serious headwork getting through one of your posts, Brad, & it's not just me. Do you proofread your posts before submission? I recommend typing up longer posts in word, or something.
