crashfrog writes:I'm sorry but that's not true.

crashfrog writes:Assuming he's talking about real people, that is, pre-industrial cultures that actually exist - and, you know, he said or at least implied that he was not making this up, though that's been shown to be a lie - then yes, I can assign mortality rates to those people by assigning mortality rates to every pre-industrial culture that is known.

crashfrog writes:I already have, since I've specified the mortality rates for the comprehensive set of everyone he could have been referring to, unless he was making it up. If you want him to be more specific then you have to ask him to be more specific, Panda. I can't be any more specific than Oni has.

crashfrog writes:It's all in Table 2 in the link I posted. I can't copy and paste the table because it's a PDF.

crashfrog writes:Table 2 has the life expectancy broken down to individual peoples. Again, that table is comprehensive so provided that Oni was not making up a people (made-up people won't appear on the list) I've already provided the expectancy at birth and at age 45 for every group of people he could possibly have been talking about.

Crashfrog writes:u say that, in fact a lot of you say that, but I have objective evidence that you're all wrong. Did somebody hack EvC Forum because of something you said, ever? Do you have almost 20,000 posts in 9 years? Those aren't from me talking to myself, Oni. That's because when I argue with people, they can't seem to help but argue against me half-a-dozen strong. It's just objectively the case that people want to argue with me. I'm sure you'll tell me it's something I'm doing, and I don't deny that it is - there's something about me, and I jokingly use synedoche to ascribe it to the frog avatars I'm always using, that causes you people to lose your shit.

crashfrog writes:Why? Did I describe events that, in fact, did not occur? Which events are you asserting did not happen?

crashfrog writes:But again, crazy in what sense?

crashfrog writes:what did I say happened that did not, in reality, happen? Be specific.

crazyfrog writes:You're just calling me crazy apropos of... what, exactly? You're making an assertion. I'm asking you what the basis for it is. There's no need to be evasive, I'm just asking you to support your contentions.
