Re: Larry Athy and His Logical Analyses.

On Tue, Dec 2, 2003, 11:29am (CST+6), JMB posted here what appears to be
a claim that McManus is stupid.
====================
I had written: ++ Yes indeed!! He told me that he did not disagree with
anything in my paper; however, he was not qualified to pass judgement on
the statistics and thus could not pass judgement on the conclusions. ++ 
---------
~~ That is certainly not what he told me. He said he was not convinced
by any of your arguments, and that he would have made that clear to you
at the time. Given a choice, I know you to be dishonest, and I have no
such experience with McManus, so I'll take his word over yours. ~~

+++  What McManus told JMB means the same thing as what McManus told me.
-  Since McManus did not understand the statistical part of my paper, he
could not possibly be convinced by any of my arguments.
-  If JMB is suggesting that McManus did not understand my statistics
but had concluded that my paper was wrong then he is suggesting that
McManus is as stupid as JMB is.  I do not think that at all. +++
