That he's not invited?

He'll be there in *spirit*, I quite sure. Good thing since that's all he is.

Hey cutie pie, he is not the one challenging JA to a debate.

Arnii, we've all noticed that you're trying desperately to forget Lord
Atkinson's invitation to debate him in New York. ObviouslyT you're
flustered and frightened at the thought of venturing out of your hovel and
facing the real consequences of your ****ty behavior. Yes yes, I know --
"been there done, that". LOt"S.

Anyway, I know you'll need an excuse for not showing up. Here are some
suggestions for you. You may freely use one or more of these excuses
without payment or acknowledgement.

1. The Kroobitch forbade you to go.

2. You have "family obligations" that require your presence in Michigan
during the time in question. (Note: If you use this excuse, you really
should have a few extra counseling sessions with Reverend Butcher.)

3. Stereophile is sinful, and it would defile you and Nousiane for you to
be in the same room with Lord Atkinson.

4. Your parole officer refused to give you permission to travel.

5. Your credit card was canceled.

6. You're afraid to fly because a terrorist might blow up the airliner.

7. An in-person debate would be a waste of time because you've already
proovedT on Usenet that you are a magnificent scieentissct. MUCh!

8. You only have debates in churches, and the proposed venue is not a
church.

9. You have scheduled a "trainee" session ;-) for that weekend, and if you
cancel, he'll never let you "train" ;-) him again.

10. You already proved your point by getting JA to invite you, so an
actual
debate would be as pointless as putting lipstick on a pig. Not that you're
afraid to stand up and say any of these things in public, of course. ;-)



That should help you decide. No charge. ;-)




You really don't have any life at all, do you?

It is fair to point out, George, that Arny has requested he
not have to respond to my invitation until February 1. I have
agreed to wait until then, though to be honest, I don't know
why it would take so long to say "yes" or "no."

BTW, in response to some suggestions that I have received
suggesting that I accept a substitute for Mr. Krueger -- Tom
Nousaine, for example, or Norman Strong, or Howard Ferstler, or
Stewart Pinkerton -- my invitation to debate me and my offer of
reasonable expenses were both specifically issued to Arny
Krueger, not to anyone else.

However, if Mr. Ferstler, Mr. Strong, Mr. Pinkerton, or Mr.
Nousaine wish to attend Home Entertainment 2005 (at their
own expense) and put questions to Mr. Krueger and myself from
the audience, of course they would be welcome to do so.

Doesn't the airfare get more expensive as time goes by? He'll say yes, you will
waste the money on airfare and he'll make some lame excuse for not showing and
claim it was your fault and you lied about this or that. don't you see this
coming?

I've got some questions about "bloom" that I'd love to have answered by the
experts.

You'll have to buy your own bloomers, sweetie.

Right from the horse's mouth:

Arny Krueger, RAO, 17-12-2004:

" My strategy with respect to the debate seems to have been stated
very clearly. My post to Middius on the topic should have been very
clear, even to a mental deficient such as himself. I'm just sitting
here chortling away, watching the Atkinson supporters wet themselves
in public. "

If it has to be one of Them, I'd suggest Pinkerton.

No wondered your stymied by such a term, considering that you're "totally

Maybe the Genesis "Digital Lens" is an option for Brett?

Sure. Epson salt is better for basal growth. For better bloom, you
need lots of phosporus and a good portion of potassium. Nitrogen will
just get you more leaf growth.

For a lush fairway, you have different requirements.

Oh yeah, those azaleas at Amen Corner need an acidic soil. You can get
a dedicated azalea/rhododenron fertilizer that will help you with the
Masters homage next to your driveway.

I meant "No wonder you're stymied..."
