Who is the provider of regular phone service in the Miami
area?

Bellsouth?


It's just that there's this person's phone number you would
expect
to
find in their books, but it doesn't show up.


you are really obsessed with this!
Not nearly as much as he is with me.

Another lie from McKelvy, obviously.

No, just my impression, given the amount of bandwidth you are using.

I'm not the person that has been spreading lies about another
person's
identity, professional activities, credentals, etc. for almost 7
years.
I'm also not the person that has passed on false email information
received from a questionable source.

Neither am I. I'm just a guy who can't reconcile your on line
behavior with
your stated profession, and have therefore expressed my onion on the
matter.


That's a lie. You've repeatedly made false statements about my
identity, my professional activities

They are still opinions.

(about which you actually know
nothing oher than what I've mentioned on RAO).

Which is the same as knowing nothing for sure.

There is a difference
between expressing an "opinion" (the word you use to describe your
lies), and making statements that have been contradicted over and over
again by concrete evidence that you've seen but chosen to ignort or
disbelieve.

It's not so much that I disbeleive them, it's that there is no way to know
if they are true, they are hearsay.

Also, are you denying that you passsed on fale email
information (which you never bother to even try and verify) from a
questionable source (one who had never met me and was known to use a
variety of sockpuppet personae on RAO).

I'm not denying that I passed along info from an E-mail. I assure you it
was not "fale."


For the zillionth time, one of the fallacies in your thinking is that
when a professional person goes on a recreational newsgroup, they
should treat it as an extension of their office, or somehow, behave
differently than other people do that post there.

That does not excuse the behavior you exhibit here. It would make no
difference in how I regard you as an RAO participant.

People post on
recreational newsgroups to have a little fun, have a few laughs, and
unfortunately, in the case of RAO, often insult other people.

And you seem to relish the insult part.

To
expect one person to refrain while others take pot shots is unrealistic
and unfair.

Why? What harm can it do to ignore them? You sound like a child when you
say things like that. You think you put out fire with gasoline?

You are the person who has been spread lies and innuendo about my use
of
legally prescribed pain medications and making false claims about my
mental
state.

I've made it clear that any statements I make about *anybody's* mental
state on RAO refers only to their online behavior and nothing else.

But if you are a psychologist as you claim, and for now let's assume that is
true, it is reckless an unprofessional to use legitmate diagnostic terms
about people you don't know.

You
have lied at claimed that I've "diagnosed" people on RAO, which is
clearly not the case. You've also implied that I've been guilty of
ethical lapses, when in fact none have ever existed.

I only know that if I had your credentials, I would not be calling people
delusional and insane at the drop of a hat.

As for your use of legally prescribed pain medications, I have no way
of knowing whether or not you use them responsibly, so I'm free to
voice an opinion.

You have freedomn of speech, but to make state such opinions about something
you have no knowledge of is exactly the same as what you accuse me of doing.



Let's recall that Rush Limbaugh also used a lot of
"legally prescribed pain medications" but apparently, he was using many
prescriptions at the same time.

An now you seem to imply that I am using more than one prescription, which
is also not true.

It's pretty simple. They dull the pain, if I could live without them, I
would gladly do so. I've spent a fair amount of time and a large amount of
money trying to use non-narcotic methods to get rid of the pain. I'm going
to be in touch with yet another doctor to see if surgery is a viable option.
As I'm sure you are aware, surgery on one's spine is not something you do if
it not required, there are some very serious risks, far more than from
oxicontin.

BTW, Rush may have been taking far more than he should have, but he was
obviously in charge of his life in all other ways. Oxicontin is a far safer
drug than the much more abused Vicoden which contains Tylenol.
