T'was YOU who wrote: "then TRAINS has dropped down to the level of Mother Jones or NOW, at least in this instance.  Whether you will agree or not that the latter two media offerings are of the yellow variety, I'll leave you to decide"

Whether I will agree they are of the yellow variety?  Agree with whom? with you?

So I am exonerated once again, albeit in a backhanded manner.

And I'll bet you have no clue what Mother Jones is or was.  I honestly don't know if the rag even exists anymore.  All I know that is that you could have taken that particular TRAINS news item, stuck into the pages of Mother Jones, and no one would be the wiser (literally).  Or Bill Moyers could have read the piece verbatum on one of his taxpayer supported *news* shows on PBS, and no one would have suspected it had been lifted from TRAINS.

Now do you get it?

Future,

What are you on? I need to get some of that s**t. It is obviously a powerful and mind dulling hallucinogen. You talk about Schiffer having "a my way or the highway" attitude. Go back and check the points I iterate in my FACTS post. It is the Mayo Clinic not the DM&E or Schiffer that exude a "my way or the highway" attitude in there every utterance and legal manuver.

Mark

Apparently, I'm not on what you are on, because it is AG who is dissing Schiffer, not me.  And I totally agree with your last sentence.

Ohhhhhkay, boys.... have we all insulted each other enough here?  Take a deep breath and start talking about railroading again, instead of trying to dissect someone else's every thought.

Let's move on.
