By all means, insist if you must, Mr. Ehrlich.  But if it is your view
that "legitimate skepticism as to the value of the evidence should not
be dismissed out of hand" it might help if you could be more specific
about the concerns you obviously must have regarding "the generation
of evidence at the IMT".  

And for a refreshing change, perhaps you could articulate these
concerns without any reference to the customary strawmen (soap,
Auschwitz numbers, Katyn "and so on" - if I might borrow one of your
handy-dandy phrases.)

We've been there and done that _so_ many times.  Besides, if I recall
correctly, you yourself told us in response to one of my posts when
you were here the first time "that's what deniers do".  And even if
you were referring to something else - you are now doing what deniers
do.

As for the rest of your post, perhaps in the interest of "honest
debate," instead of cobbling and weaving, you'd care to try your hand
at addressing the precise points raised by Mr. Edeiken.  It's very
easy really:  instead of *dropping* context so as to give yourself a
pretext for repeating your earlier arguments in new, improved
paragraphs, just include the entire post in your reply ... and
respond, point by point.

Try it, you'll like it ... I know I will. And I'm certain that other
readers, noticing that some of your comments have a very familiar ring
to them,  will appreciate not having to switch back and forth from
post to post.

And to assist you, I have deleted the balance of your text and am
reposting here the _full_ text of Mr. Edeiken's response.

	That is standard evidentiary law.  The most famous bit of 
cross-examination in American history -- the murder trial in which
Linclon was 
defense attorney, Ford used it as the basis for his movie "Young Mr.
Lincoln" -- 
depends on the first point.  Official government records are
admissible under the 
"business record" exception to the hearsay rule and, in federal rules,
specifically 
as FRE 803 (8) (which is broader than most state rules).

	Certainly one could.  The difference is that the burden of proof is 
shifted.

	This is incorrect.  I think you are misreading Biddle's statement.

	Why not?  They could have produced evidence.  The fact is that they 
did not do so.

	Again, the "concept of collective responsibility" is a modern excuse.

The indictment and proof clearly related to an on-going conspiracy.

	Please show me the portion of the trial where they were not allowed to

raise such questions.  Certainly that is not true as a general matter.
Not only was 
a defense presented but the defense case was longer than the
prosecution.  
The defendants seemed well able to contest the Katyn Forest charges,
for 
example.  They did so successfully.

murders 
occurred in some other fashion.

Now, try again, Mr. Ehrlich.  And this time, "Play Fair!".

Li'l Tommy lets this statement of the obvious rest unrefuted.  Ergo,
he acknowledges that his original statement (which he was recyling for
the umpteenth time - part of his homework for Denier 101) is a lie and
that he is a liar.

One wonders if this silent acknowledgement is a sign that Li'l Tommy

propaganda.)

Li'l Tommy  lets this observation rest unrefuted.  Ergo, he
acknowledges that he has in fact admitted that he has not read the

Is this a further sign of progress on the path to integrity on Li'l
Tommy's part?

Ooops, Li'l Tommy suffers a _major_ relapse.  Not only does he fail to
apologize and/or retract his claims, but Li'l Tommy (who seems to
think that he is exempt from providing _any_ proof of _his_ claims)
also manages to demonstrate - beyond the shadow of a doubt - that, in
addition to being an anti-Semite and a liar,  he is the virtual
epitome of what chutzpah *really* means.  Tsk. Tsk.Tsk.

Really?  Very interesting Mr. Ehrlich.  But for those who don't,
perhaps you could provide some enlightenment by presenting some
evidence to support your claims - or at the very least citing the
sources of these unsubstantiated assertions.  I do understand that you
may hold the opinion that your word should be good enough for everyone
- and perhaps for some it might be.  But just on the off-chance that
there might be someone out there who has the audacity to doubt your
authoritative pronouncements, it would be the gentlemanly thing to do,
don't you think?  Or are such courtesies not part of your vision of
what "this board is _supposed_ to have on it"?

Gee, Keith, you don't suppose it could be because the honourable
honest gentleman (who it would _appear_ has just done it again) was

In order to clear a path, so to speak, for blithe (and blind?) defense

Well, I guess that might explain why so many of your posts _appear_ to
be quite unrelated to the substance of the post you are responding to.
Have you considered, Mr. Ehrlich, that those discussions in which you
are engaged might progress more smoothly if you were to change this
general practice of yours?

And it would certainly make following the discussion so much easier
for those who are cursed by "flakey servers" that do not deliver all
posts in a timely and orderly fashion.

Really, it's not such a novel concept. But do try it, you might like
it.

>I defend Matt's skepticism as well as my own.  That's really all there is
>to it.  

Well, I must confess that I much prefer to see you put yourself and
Giwer in the same league than to see you suggesting (as you did
elsewhere) that he and I are in the same league.  However, I'm still
uncertain whether you are attempting to elevate him - or sliding down
to his level.

In any event, Mr. Ehrlich, feel free to defend whatever skepticism you
wish.  However, as Mr. Morrison noted in the post you are responding
to (and as you have _again_ deleted):

	Notice the first part of Giwer's message that Erlich606 left out: the

	part where he uses relatively demeaning language against someone who 
	asked a straightforward question and has not insulted or attacked 	
	him.

Please clarify - for the benefit of those who decide to accept your
invitation to "Play Ball!" - according to the rules of your game, is
it acceptable to use "demeaning language" against someone who has
asked a straightforward question without insulting or attacking?

And please spare us another of your "revisionist" spins which to date
have indicated either that you have not done your homework or that you
are being willfully blind.

A simple yes or no will suffice (provided you agree not to *drop* the
context of the question in your response)

>As to the second point, I don't know who is coming to the
>conclusion that there was no Holocaust, but I don't think it's me, or
>Matt, or several others.  

Well, we can leave you out of this one.  You must know your own mind,
and I for one would never presume to read it.  And indeed _no_
reasonable person _is_ "coming to the conclusion that there was no
Holocaust."  Nor are they likely to.  

However, regardless of what you "think", there _are_ many others
("Matt" included) whose posts to this newsgroup leave no doubt
whatsoever that they are coming _from_ the _faulty_ _premise_ that
there was no Holocaust - and whose willfull distortions and outright
lies are proffered in "support" of this faulty premise.  There is no
evidence of "skepticism" in these posts.

I have no wish to do you any injustice here.  And certainly that fact
that you have not responded to many such posts _may_ indicate that you
have not seen them.  But if this is the case, as he whom you choose to
defend has said on _countless_ occasions:

You are not following the newsgroup.  Read the newsgroup. (Except he
rarely says it quite so politely)

As to a *conspiracy* let's keep in mind that the
>Soviet Union was until very recently a closed society, and whatever the
>apparatus came up with was the truth.  We know that they faked materials
>to get John Demjanjuk.  We know that they faked materials about Katyn
>Forest.  We also know that they faked materials that were used at
>Nuremberg, at the very least, the solemn declarations that a lot more
>people died at the exterminations than we hold today.  
>  

 So you and many others have said many times.  You are sounding
considerably less ambiguous about these matters than you did in the
posts of your first visit.  In fact, you are beginning to sound
_exactly_ like every other denier/distortionist who has posted to this
newsgroup.  But all of these issues, as you well know, have been
presented, addressed and dealt with [dare I say it?!] over and over
and over.  They have no bearing on the historicity of the Holocaust.

And with that out of the way, perhaps you will _now_ address Mr.
Morrison's second question.  Just in case you've forgotten, it is at
the top of the page, but to save you the trouble of scrolling back -
here it is again:

>>And my second question is this: assuming that revisionist/deniers
>actually
>>have a point, how can you reasonably come to the conclusion that there
>was
>>no Holocaust or that it was greatly exaggerated *without* invoking some
>>kind of conspiracy to alter the truth?

To which I would add: Or, in light of your intro to what is becoming a
"revisionist mantra", are we to understand that the new, improved
"revisionist" theory is that the Holocaust was a communist inspired
conspiratorial plot?  Get serious!

>Are we all done
>with revising the truths of the past, of the Holocaust?  I don't _think_
>so.  That's all.

How profound.  But let us not forget the big picture: the Holocaust
resulted in the murder of 12 million innocent civilians, approximately
half of whom were Jewish, at the hands of Hitler and the Nazi regime
of the Third Reich.  

A few simple questions, Mr. Ehrlich. How is any "revising" going to
change this big picture?  Or put another way, in your view, what is
wrong with this big picture that it might be in need of any revising?

Interpretation of some details may change - interpretation is always
subject to change.  I have changed my interpretation of you, as I'm
sure you have of me.  But you have not changed - nor have I!  

And try as you might, all this "skepticism"  and "revising" that you
seem to think holds so much promise, will never change the big
picture.  As a very simple analogy, you can - as you have been doing
of late - *drop* details of a poster's argument in your response. I
guess that is "revising" isn't it?  But your doing so does not alter
in the slightest the _reality_ of the big picture that the poster put
forward.

Were the Zyclon B pellets blue, green or mauve?  It doesn't matter.
How many holes were in the roof - or bolts in the floor - of a
building that was destroyed over 50 years ago?  It doesn't matter.
The big picture will never change.

The reality is, Mr. Ehrlich, the truth of the past - and of the
Holocaust which _is_ part of the past - is no less true today than it
was then or than it will be in the future.  That's all.

believe this?!) Philadelphia - to oversee the translation of the
*entire* works of W.C. Fields into Hebrew.  And it took twice as long
as it should have because (the _top_ secret truth is) McFeestein did
the original translation and blew it bigtime! (He couldn't get his
decoder ring working and he kept sending reports that it was changing
colour - some things never change, eh?!)  I had to translate it back
>from  McFeebrew to English before I could even start!

Definitely _not_ on _Saturday_ morning, Mr. Kelley!  And if the
Lubavitch Hassidim were in  and they knocked on your
door on Sunday morning (or any other morning - or any part of any
other day, for that matter), they would do so _only_ if they saw a
mezuzzah on your doorpost.

Trust our Mr. Moran, eh?!  And in anticipation of Mr. Moran's request
that I "expand upon" my statement above, I shall do so now.  

You see, Mr. Moran, the Lubavitch Hassidim would never attempt to
persuade a person of another faith to convert to Judaism.  Active
proselytization (look it up in your dictionary, Mr. Moran) is contrary
to the tenets of Judaism.  When the Lubavitch Hassidim are in
 they are merely attempting to persuade other Jews to
become more observant.  Sometimes they succeed (and sometimes those of
us who are Jewish - but not as observant - speak of such "converts" as
"born-again" Jews)

Well, I can hardly wait to see the results after Li'l Tommy's feeds
this through his all-purpose prejudice-mill!

Hmmm... this is indeed a very puzzling question, Mr. Schultz.  I have
observed, however, that Messrs Ehrlich and Thomas seem have become the
self-appointed arbiters of the new, improved, revisionist netiquette. 

And I am confident that one of them will enlighten us as to how  we
have erred by daring to:

a) characterize these words as a personal attack (as all reasonable
people would) and/or 

b) question the propriety of any behaviour in which Myshkin sees fit
to engage (as all reasonable people would)

I had heard rumours to the effect that there was reform afoot in the
"revisionist" ranks.  Talk of civilized discourse, intellectual
honesty, personal responsibility, proper citations of text,
presentation of evidence to support claims, retractions and apologies
when called for - all that good stuff, you know.

Alas, it seems they found that Myshkin and Moran were ... hmmm....
shall we say "resistant" to reform.  M&M - as we all know - have been
the fearless frontline footsoldiers recycling revisionist rhetoric for
longer than many of us would care to remember.

As you can well imagine, this presented a quandary at RHQ, because
they are committed to presenting a united front.  They could brook no
division in the ranks.  Then one of their bright lights stumbled
across the strategy used by the Z-factory.  You've probably noticed it
in the Z-grams.  They take truth to the cleaners by running it through
their own special language laundry. You know how Ingrid talks when
she's in one of her loquacious expository moods - she just winds
herself up and abracadbra! black is white and white is black!

It didn't take long to work out a strategy using this technique. They
developed a buddy system:  M&M could carry on as usual; when a post of
theirs is given the treatment it so richly deserves, the buddy
(usually one of the arbiters) rushes in, waves his magic wand over the
words and abracadabra "demeaning language" becomes "skepticism" and
"moranic neologisms" become "legitimate terms" - and to further
bolster the new reality, we get blamed for their indiscretions, i.e.
it is pointed out that whoever dared to give the post the treatment it
deserves is in fact guilty of one MorM sin or another.  Neat, huh?!

You are probably asking yourself, "How can they say such things when
there is a virtual mountain of documented evidence proving
indisputably that Moran is twit and Myshkin's a troll?"

Well, we all know the answer to that:  "Evidence, what evidence? It's
all very questionable.  There was never a twit and never a troll.  M&M
are outstanding paragons of virtue.  Because! We! Say! So!." 

Well, Mr. Ehrlich did invite us to "Play Ball!"  And after all, this
_is _ "revisionism." 

Hope this helps, Mr. Schultz

It does occur to me (since I notice that there are an awful lot of
EIOU's hanging about in the ether) that perhaps Mr. E.  is too busy at
the moment dressing the troll to whom he sold his soul.  And I do
wonder how long it will take him to learn - as we have known for quite
some time - that you can dress up a troll, but you just can't take him
anywhere.

Indeed, Mr. Anderson, he is responding just as we have programmed him
to.  He's incapable of doing anything different.  But he was getting
bored with that particular boorish invective.  So we let him use his
imagination to come up with another one.  Took him about 48.75 hours
of deep thought, according to our records.  I'm certain you will be
able to spot the result when you see it.

Well, nice try Mr. McCarthy, but it doesn't seem to have helped.
You know for a while I thought I saw some signs of progress.  But now
it seems that Mr. Moran's progress is in remission (or maybe that
should be retransmission ... he's run this little gambit before,
hasn't he?!)  

I'll leave his brilliant little response attached.  It is somewhat
amusing in a way.  What _is_ this JDL declaration bit?! Doesn't he
think we have enough to do with Nizkor pages?!  Sheesh, he must think
we go all over the net creating pages for other people! 

He claims that Nizkor is engaging in "inverted suggestion."   I don't
think any of the web pages are upside down are they?  Or maybe he
thinks that because there is a *mirror* site on *eye.net* that there
must be an optical illusion somewhere - and he's just taken a stab in
the dark.  And he thinks our disclaimer is "tacit"!  Sheesh, you'd
think by now, he of all people would recognize an "explicit" when he
saw one!

Oh, I must have dropped in to the wrong topic.  I thought the header
read "a new approach"  

But I see it is still "business as usual" for Mr. Giwer.  I seem to
recall that he actually had demonstrated his ability to post without
any unwarranted childish outbursts and gratuitous insults etc.  Then
again, I did see a very informative post from Mr. Graves a few hours
ago.  So perhaps that was the other Mr. Giwer.

And I suppose if this one is unable to distinguish between his wastes
of bandwidth and Dr. Keren's periodic repostings, there doesn't seem
to be too much room for optimism. Does there, Mr. Abels?

Ah, I see that it is just as well, because Mr. Giwer has reached a
highly erroneous and totally unsupported conclusion.

Better luck, next inning, Mr. Giwer.   But then again perhaps you were
only "pitch hitting" for the cobbler.   And who knows, maybe _he_ will
decide to return to the game.  But thanks for playing.  And for being
so civil.  I'm sure we shall meet again.  Maybe you'd like to brush up
on the rules while you are sitting on the bench.

Posted and e-mailed to Mr. Van Alstine and Mr/Ms SF924 to let them
know that the pitch-hitter struck out.  And to Mr. McFee who is also
waiting for Mr. Ehrlich to return on an adjacent field.

Excellent response, Mr. Ehrlich.  It was what I was hoping to see.
Although -  forgive me if I appear to be splitting hares (ooops,
sorry, splitting hairs, that is:>) - I do find your use of the word
*Null* a little coy.

Overall I find this to be a succint but rather sweeping summary of a
position.  at this point I am uncertain as to whether I would
characterize the position as "baroque" or "baronic".

be interesting to know - it matters not whether this is _your_
position or your _interpretation_ of the "revisionist" position.  For
now, since you have presented this position, I shall refer to it as
"your" position - and I apologize in advance if this is not, in fact,
the case.  Whether you wish to enlighten us in this regard is up to
you, of course.

That being said .... If I understand your position correctly, one
might argue that it is difficult to see how the
admissions/acknowledgements you seek could significantly change what I

Holocaust.

But I think it would be unreasonable of me to so argue without giving

yours, Mr. Ehrlich.  In order to avoid any misunderstandings, please
substantiate your claim that "forged documents, perjured testimony,

The correct wording of the question is:

The reason Tom Moran is so avid in recycling his drivel and lies is:

	A:  So that the world will know what a horribly bigotted and malicious
anti-Semitic twit he is?

	B: To prove he can cut and paste, demonstrate his ignorance and waste
bandwidth?

	C: Both of the above?

Excuse me? Jamie, you have made a SERIOUS "secondary" error.  And
Gord, you endorsed him!   So much for independent thought in _that_
camp! What is the topic here? The Olympics, right?  Good, you agree.
Now take a deep breath and think carefully!  What usually happens
during the Olympics?  Records get broken, do they not?  

Yes, Jamie, of course SIX minus ONE = FIVE.  And It is obvious that
Mr. Graves is tacitly acknowledging that the current RECORD is FIVE
seconds.  Did he say "It was done in FOUR seconds"? No. He ASKED, and
his QUESTION was "CAN it be done in FOUR seconds?"  

The discrepancy never happened. Get over it! 

And in honourable revisionist fashion, I know that EACH of you will
IMMEDIATELY post a retraction and an apology.

My how noble!  I suppose, in the interest of "common sense gender
titles" Mr. Ehrlich would also have me change my resume to reflect
that my degree is not a B.A. (Batchelor of Arts) but an S. A.
(Spinster of Arts) and that had I chosen to do graduate work, I would
have attained a Mistress of Arts degree, not a Master of Arts.

Aside from the fact that the correct term - AND THAT WHICH I CHOOSE TO
USE  - is Co-Webmaster, the fact is, Mr. Ehrlich (if you scroll back
to the top of this message, you will see for yourself ) you did _not_
call me a 'Co-webmistress'.  Your _specific words_ were:

	Your co-web mistress indicated the means of verifying my identity

Shall I spell it out for you?  Not *Co-webmistress* but *co-web
mistress*  Now let me guess your next response:  are now going to
complain that I'm berating you for your *typos*?  It won't wash! God
forbid that Mr. Ehrlich should accept responsibility for his _own_
words and apologize! 

For evidence of the lengths Mr. Ehrlich will go in order to avoid
retraction and apology, readers are invited to peruse my June 29 post:
"Untangling" <4r44ip$f4h@atlas.uniserve.com>

Why is it that those who are so quick to take umbrage at the slightest
perceived (and - in Mr. Ehrlich's case - often imperceptible to
reasonable people) wrong to their own "reputation", will stop at
_nothing_ in their denial of personal responsibility for words aimed
to discredit that of another?

It seems this "identity" problem of Mr. Ehrlich's is still floating
around.  For the record, the means of "verifying" an AOL user's
identity are common public knowledge. 

So before he jumps on that high horse again, I would remind Mr.
Ehrlich, that earlier in this thread (as an excuse perhaps to avoid
responding to the substance and questions of my original post which
started this Topic) he let forth a volley of insults and innuendo
directed at me and Friends of Nizkor
<4qivvs$92j@newsbf02.news.aol.com>.

My requests for evidence or retractions
<4qjvp1$fv8@atlas.uniserve.com> remain unanswered.  [DvdThomas'
further unsubstantiated allegation of "intimidation" does not count as
evidence.]

In May, when he was more civil (and we were more curious), Mr. Ehrlich
expounded on his reasons for choosing pseudonymity:

Herewith his first reason <4m0ode$26a@newsbf02.news.aol.com>:



	"Obviously, my identity is pseudonymous and I am surprised that
someone hasn't commented on what I think is a rather clever nom de
cyber.  My main reason for anonymity is twofold.  First, I have
received too many cyberposts from cyberladies here and there who are
attracted by my impressive intellect, rapier wit, and comprehensive
knowledge.  My wife resents the hell out of this, and I suspect she
also doesn't want one of them to find out just how "impressive" I
really am."



I certainly have seen little (if any) evidence of any of these
"impressive" traits.  I cannot imagine why his wife should feel in the
least bit concerned.  

His second reason [from the same post]:



	"The second reason has to do with authority.  One of the benefits of
cyberspace is that it makes it possible for people to communicate
without going through the hierarchy of authority as it exists these
days.  People are judged here not by their looks, their degrees, their
publications, their wealth, or the whiteness of their teeth, but
solely by the content of what they say.  [...]"

Indeed, people are judged by "the content of what they say."  One
wonders, therefore, why Mr. Ehrlich would say one thing in May and in
June <4qmj6e$fap@newsbf02.news.aol.com> in response to the question:

>Why don't we start with the level of honor shown by people who refuse
>to post under their own names?

reply with the following:



	"There is nothing dishonorable about posting pseudonymously,
especially since there is sufficient evidence both via this board and
internationally that those who refuse to espouse particular orthodox
opinions on this topic are harrassed, imprisoned, and deported."



I would note that the above "defense" has been refuted elsewhere - so
please don't try to cobble your next response on the basis of that
particular set of unfounded nonsense, Mr. Ehrlich.

>I think we are getting pretty bad if we start suggesting things about each
>other's private lives.  I agree that it should stop.  Therefore, Matt
>should stop making remarks about Hilary's private life, and all the rest
>of you can stop making cracks about Matt's.

Indeed, "one is judged by the content of what they say".  In the above
paragraph our cobbler friend has been practicing his whitewashing
skills.  He is fully aware that the boorish foul-mouthed troll whom he
chooses to defend (for reasons I certainly cannot fathom, but no doubt
they are known to himself) has no knowledge whatsoever about my
"private life".  Therefore, he has made no "remarks" about it.  He has
however, left a trail of gratuitous foul-mouthed libellous insults
directed at me.

>I find it hard to believe that you would see an insult in *co-webmistress*
>but so be it.  Are you sure you are just not trying to start something?

I, on the other hand have no difficulty believing that since Mr.
Ehrlich did _not_use_ the word "co-webmistress"  [as noted above],
that he is again attempting to avoid responsibility for his words - by
which he is now being judged.  

Finally, I have in other posts to this newsgroup referred to Mr.
Ehrlich as an "honourable and honest gentleman".  He has repeatedly
proved that he is undeserving of being called "honest", "honourable"
or a "gentleman".

I hereby retract such statements and would ask the gentlemen of this
newsgoup who _are_ genuinely "honourable and honest" to forgive me for
impugning their characters by my inaccurate and inappropriate
attribution of these characteristics to Mr. Ehrlich.

Oh, really?  Gee I wonder what happened to my invitation.  I don't

you, Li'l Tommy?

You don't?  Gee, why am I not surprised.  Looks like Moran has trapped
himself here!  If he has such "evidence", then he is guilty of
intercepting other people's e-mail.  And if he doesn't have such
"evidence", then he is lying again.  As usual.

Indeed, Mr. Mittleman, you and Mr. Kelley would appear to be excellent
teachers!  

Just the other day I was perusing my documentation for "The Morphing
of Tom Moran." [I'm sorry to report, btw, that both the NY and LA
Times have rejected this serialized manuscript - to which I offered
them first rights.  They said my writing was great, but that - despite
all the documented evidence provided in my text - none of their
respective readers would ever believe that such a twit actually exists
in either the real or the virtual world]

Lest we not *fully* appreciate just how _far_ Mr. Moran has come since
his pre-literacy phase, I offer the following repost of my response to
one of his earlier "efforts."  

The Topic, introduced by Mr. Moran (who later in the thread - or
perhaps elsewhere - expressed his pride in the number of posts under
this thread), was entitled "Nizkor Invite Accepted"  [circa Nov.
10/95]  The full text of the post to which I was responding is
available on Nizkor.  [All parenthetical comments below in original]

Mr. Moran, as I indicated in my response, I had no objection to your
posting it.  I am not in the least embarrassed (although I am curious
to know how it is possible for one to be "subliminally embarassed") 

Since Mr. Moran has now made his e-mail public, and since he has for
some reason - possibly known only to himself - chosen not to post my
response despite his subsequent e-mails to both Mr. McCarthy and
myself indicating that he _had_ posted it, I am now posting a copy.  

Readers of this newsgroup may decide for themselves whether Mr.
Moran's precis of my response is, in fact, accurate.

Perhaps in future, Mr. Moran, if you are going to address me by my
first name, you would at least do me the courtesy of spelling it
correctly.  Thank you.

Mr. Moran,

Jamie McCarthy has forwarded your letter to me.  As you may know, he
and I share responsibilities as volunteer Co-Webmasters of Nizkor.
This letter consists of my response followed by the full contents of
your letter to him.

Thank you for taking the time to write.  An initial reading of your
letter would suggest that you seem either quite confused or are making
a deliberate attempt _to confuse_ If the former is true, then I hope
you will find my suggestions helpful.  If the latter, then I am not
sure what your goal might be.  I would also note that I see no need to
post this to alt.revisionism; however, I have no objection to your
doing so - with the proviso that it be published without any deletions
and that any additions on your part be clearly indicated as such.

That being said, I must draw your attention to the fact that your
letter, in its entirety presents numerous instances of difficulty in
simply ascertaining the point you are attempting to make.  This is
consistent with my experience - as well as that noted by others - of
your posts to alt. revisionism.  Perhaps English is not your first
language, but regardless of whether it is or not, you would be well
advised to avail yourself of a good dictionary.  The essence of
communication is having a common understanding of the meaning of words
used. 

At the end of your opening litany of statements which seem to indicate
that perhaps you do not understand how to use the web and/or FTP
and/or the software and hardware at your disposal, you conclude by
stating:

>	My personal opinion is that the archives are set up so as to give the
>appearance of a heavy dose of material that can prove the Holocaust,
>and are coded and presented in such a way to deter anyone from looking
>into them at length. 
>	In summary for my conclusion, "plaintext", need for special equipment,
>and the inexplicable set up.
>	Needless to say, we can't go into these files at any length for
>critique, so I'll just focus on some of the surface stuff.

An interesting opinion, Mr. Moran, but unfortunately one that is not
substantiated by the facts nor - as far as I was able to determine -
by anything you wrote in your letter.  Nor, as far as I know,  is it
an opinion shared by those who choose to access Nizkor for the very
purpose to which it is intended: i.e. as an electronic repository of
material pertaining to the _facts_ of the Holocaust (and the
refutation of the attempted denial of these _facts_ by those who
mistakenly call themselves "revisionists").  

Contrary to your assertion, the archives on Nizkor are _not_ in any
way an attempt to "prove the Holocaust".  Some of the material does
refer to the vast body of evidence and testimony that constitutes
accepted historical proof.   Such material _is_ referenced and/or
cited in a manner which enables any reader to verify the information
at its primary source, in accordance with commonly accepted practice.

A further difficulty in your letter,  in many instances, arises as a
consequence of the absence of _specific_ references from the documents
to which you allude.  Danny Mittleman
(dmittleman@bpavms.bpa.arizona.edu) posted an excellent guide,
"Internet Citations: A Reference",  to alt. revisionism on November
7/95.  While this guide does refer to scholarly papers rather than to
the informal discussion that frequently occurs in newsgroups such as
alt.revisionism or private correspondence, I am sure you will find it
helpful. 

The conventions contained therein can be readily adapted (the above
citation is an example!) and, in addition to being a courtesy to one's
reader(s), provide a more coherent and productive basis for
discussion.  ( If you have missed this post, I would be glad to
forward you a copy.  Just let me know.)

There are many instances in your letter in which you refer somewhat
disparagingly to material found on Nizkor.  I do find this somewhat
curious in light of your earlier assertion (noted above) that "we
can't go into these files at any length for critique".  Your comments,
however, are replete with typical indicators of one who has a
Holocaust denier/anti-semitic agenda - rather than of one who is
genuinely seeking information.  For example, your letter includes the
following:

>	Under "How many people died ..." you open up with a section from the
>Spotlight for some reason.  The reason is clear.  To dispell any
>notions that the Jewish community was the prime mover in the Holocaust
>saturation over the years, and that anyone who disagreed was labeled
>an anti-Semite.  

Quite aside from your failure to accurately reference the page(s) you
are attempting to cite - and your highly questionable and
unsubstantiated assertion that "the reason is clear" -  your choice of
words such as "the Jewish community was the prime mover in the
Holocaust saturation..." (whatever this phrase is _intended_ to mean)
leaves one with the distinct impression that you have perhaps already
closed your mind to the reality of the overwhelming body of evidence
that leaves no doubt that the Holocaust did occur.

Similarly, the "arguments" you are attempting to raise vis a vis the
number of people murdered by the Nazi regime are no more than echoes
of those put forth by countless of your predecessors in alt.
revisionism.  Such "arguments" have been refuted with regularity,
clarity and substance.  Those refutations can be found in the FAQ's on
Nizkor and are frequently posted to alt.revisionism (often in their
entirety, and sometimes  excerpted as responses to specific
questions). It is your privilege to ignore them if you so choose.

In short, Mr. Moran, this ground has been covered many times.  As has
the ground you travel in the concluding paragraphs of your letter.
You are choosing to follow the road-map laid out by those who -
lacking evidence for their "arguments" - resort to lies, half-truths,
distortions, fabrications and vitriolic innuendo.

We are fortunate to live in countries (you in the US and I in Canada)
in which your views (however ill-informed - or based on faulty
premises - they might be) as well as those of people who _do_ take the
time and trouble to inform themselves by reading more reliable sources
than Bradley Smith or Ernst Zundel (regardless of how abhorrent I
might find their demonstrated intellectual dishonesty and
ill-disguised agendas) can be voiced.  

Your baseless concluding accusation that "the Holocaust faction
[whatever that might be] tries hard to stiffle (sic) dissent" is in
itself a testimony to the fallacy of your argument - and to the
fallacies put forth by those whose views you attempt to paraphrase
throughout your letter.

If your writings have betrayed you by their failure to communicate
your genuine interest in a discussion, and if you can state your
"arguments" with greater clarity (including specific references and
appropriate citations thereof),  please do write again.  However, I
regret that I have neither the time nor the inclination to weed
through seemingly pointless ramblings and/or to enter into semantic
arguments similar to those you have previously initiated in alt.
revisionism.

Noting however that in his time here Ehrlich has made countless errors
of fact that are clearly wrong, numerous claims that he refuses to
substantiate and expresses opinions which, although contrary to known
facts, he excuses under the rubric of skepticism (possibly because his
books are in the attic),  I conclude that his text should be used with

In addition, if we are going to give Ehrlich any credence, we should
bear in mind that the archives of this newsgroup are littered with
threads that he has left dangling - while questions addressed to him
remain unanswered and refutations of his arguments are unacknowledged.
Finally, we should recognize that the posting behaviour of a boorish
foul-mouthed troll for at least Ehrlich and DvdThomas is totally
acceptable and that they imagine he is worthy of respect.

Indeed, and we are getting very tired of your tedious childish evasive
ploys, Mr. Moran. Although I do find it interesting that you should
claim to be able to recognize substance when you see it.  I shall not
rebuke you for this claim, although the refutation can be found at:

And, btw, I never rebuke claims.  It isn't the fault of the claim that
it is wrong.  Rather it is the fault of the poster.   But I do refute
claims - and have on occasion been known to rebuke the poster.

However, I have accepted your invitation.  You will find my response

Hmmm, well, I see that you've removed the context [each of these
paragraphs _was_ a *response* to a paragraph of Ehrlich's].  But I'm
not sure what your problem is.  Maybe as a "stand-alone" I should
modify the first sentence of the first paragraph by deleting the first
three words (i.e. "Noting however that") and commence the paragraph
thusly:

"In his time here ...."

Perhaps you would also like me to amend the last sentence of the last
paragraph to read:

"Finally, we should recognize that the posting behaviour of a boorish
foul-mouthed troll - and that of the proven hate-filled anti-Semite,
Tom Moran - for at least Erhlich and David Thomas is totally
acceptable and that they imagine Moran and the troll are worthy of
respect."

E-mail a copy to Ehrlich for me, will you Mr. Moran (I don't seem to
have his address handy).  If he has no problem with these proposed
changes, and if it will make you happy, hey, that's fine with me.  

Oh, btw, thanks for your tacit agreement with the substance of my
remarks.  I'm sure that if you did not agree you would have attempted,
in your inimitable fashion, to provide a refutation.

Ever hear of "full disclosure" Li'l Tommy?  No, I didn't think so.
For the record the above excerpt is from my post, "Poster's Progress",
which can be found elsewhere in this newsgroup.

But at least he got the date right.  Now that could be called
progress, I suppose.

Seems to me that Moran is aiming for the record as the most prolific
C&CF (content & context free) poster of the week.  This is probably
not the best week for him to do this, as he appears to have
considerable competition among the ranks of those who share some of
his misguided persuasions.

Since there appear to be a few (possibly several and, indeed maybe
many) threads with the same name (all started by you know who) I
thought I would rename this particular post.  The pause that
refreshes, so to speak.

[I shall refrain from observing that the correct formulation of the
question should be "Who are 'we', Hilary?"]

It is unfortunate that Mr. Moran seems to have overlooked his mentor's
exhortation to "Play Ball!"   If Mr. Moran's powers of observation
were such that he had sufficient skills to "read the newsgroup", he
would not feel the need to ask this particular question.

However, since he has put the question. so to speak, I  invite those
who count themselves among the "we" to so identify themselves.  Such
identification will provide a program by which Mr. Moran *may* be able
to *tell the players.*

Thank you for your co-operation in this educational effort (above and
beyond the call of duty)

Indeed.  However, even the hysterical laughter has subsided in recent
months because his "serious" posts are nothing more than recycled old
ones.  And IMHO his current crop of recyclings belongs more in the
realm of DejaVues than in "hysterical laughter" generation.

I'm surprised that the cobbler hasn't learned that every post has its
place. Amazing how one can lose track of a thread if one tries.  

Readers will note that he chose to edit the headers prior to posting
the response below, so I am re-posting it here.  Just for the record,
and for the convenience of those readers who wish to remind themselves
of any salient points that Ehrlich has chosen to ignore (and possibly
was hoping other readers would forget).  

Seems to me there are a number of points he's missed.  But then, this
is what we have come to expect from him.   He seems so bent on talking
about himself and defending/whitewashing the boorish foul-mouthed
troll.  Quite telling what he chooses to remind himself of.  What
comes to my mind is "methinks he doth protest too much."

Oh, well, maybe Ehrlich was just trying to demonstrate his "impressive
intellect, rapier wit, and comprehensive knowledge" for the
cyberladies in his fan club.  I wonder how *impressed* they will be
with this [tm] apology.  

Personally, I found it self-serving, side-stepping, insincere and very
underwhelming.  But then, as he has acknowledged, people are judeged
"solely by the content of what they say."  And this is what we have
come to expect from him.

You know, it is one thing to expect someone to apologize -- if they
feel like it -- for saying something personal, insulting, and cruel.
It is another thing to expect someone to apologize for saying
something innocuous that is _perceived_ as personal, insulting, and
cruel.  It is still another thing to expect someone to apologize for
something that is by itself innocuous but which other claim that the
_intent_ was personal, insulting, and cruel.

I know what was in my mind when I wrote the above passage -- whether
Co web mistress or co-webmistress -- and the last thing I was thinking
about was Hilary's personal life.  How many times do I have to say
that?  But people are going to believe what they want to believe.

I am reminded of an exchange a couple of weeks ago when I made a
remark -- under a Hilary quote from someone else -- about the Nizkor
Bunny keeps going, and going and going.  I was thinking about
repetitive posts from Nizkor and Nizkor affiliates.  But of course I
was accused of something else.  Naturally!

With regard to these comments, I cannot well apologize for intentions 
did not have.  The fact that the charges are repeated over and over is
not going to make that *intention* magically appear.

So now we look at the comments in light of the fact that they have
been _perceived_ as  personal, insulting, and cruel.  Well, in normal
life, if I say something and someone gets indignant, I say, wow,
didn't mean to offend you.  The rhetoric on this board, however, is
hardly normal.  But, OK, if you think *Co-web mistress* or
*Co-webmistress * is insulting, then I am sorry you are insulted.  I
wasn't trying to insult you.

Now, my position is that I didn't mean to say something hurtful or
cruel. Period.  If you want to think that, there is nothing I can do.
But while we are on the subject, I will note that many people on this
board have made repeated personal comments about Matt, referencing his
alleged mental health, his intelligence, his alleged drinking habits,
and on and on and on.  Anybody going to apologize for that?

What usually transpires is that someone will be decent -- if memory
serves, it is usually Mike Stein -- who will step forward and be nice.

But such interjections are few and far between.

Not to worry, Giwer-troll.  I wasn't including you in the "we".  If
you had been following the newsgroup you would have figured that out
all by yourself.  And your friend has already beaten you to the punch
on this *brilliant* pointed question.

I have started a new thread to address this question.  With your 163
IQ, you should have no difficulty figuring out which one it is.

Hmmm ... very interesting Mr. Moran.  I suppose you think I must be
absolutely *crushed* by your characterization of my posting behaviour.
Well, I'm really sorry to disappoint you, but I rather think that your
comments, insults and "descriptions" tell us _far_ more about _you_
and _your_ abilities (or lack thereof)  than they do about me or mine.

But by all means, don't let that stop you from continuing to shoot
yourself in the foot.  Don't let it bother you in the slightest that
your "case" - as context-free as it is - is about as solid as a house
of cards.

"Spirit and paste" to your heart's content, Mr. Moran.

Setting aside the fact that the perceived _colour_ of the pellets has
little bearing (in fact none that I can see) on the reality of the
_use_ of pellets, it is also possible that differences in perception
of colour can be attributed to a variant of colour-blindness.  If
memory serves me correctly, the incidence of colour-blindness in males
is approximately 1:10. (There is considerable literature available
addressing this issue.)

Not only is it reasonable, Mr. Borowsky!  But, as Ehrlich is well
aware, the reference _was_ to "pea-sized."  One might wonder why
Ehrlich continues to pursue this particular train of "thought", when
yesterday, elsewhere on this same Topic, Mr. McCarthy
 pointed out the
following:

For the record, Ehrlich _has_ responded to Mr. McCarthy's post:
<4rnedv$dso@newsbf02.news.aol.com>.  I shall refrain from expressing
my opinion of this response from Ehrlich - other than to state that it
is what I have come to expect from him.   I have articulated my
reasons elsewhere.

The Giwer-troll provides further corroboration of Mike Stein's
assessment in another thread that he (the troll)  lacks the intellect,
intelligence or comprehension skills to be able to contribute in any
meaningful way in a discussion of the history of the Holocaust.  

If anything is laughable it is that the troll deludes himself by
thinking that he is capable of participating in any debate.

Hmmm ... and would this be called "The Rule of Tom's Thumb" or "Tom's

I do recall seeing approximately two such mild rebukes from Ehrlich.
But hardly anything that I would consider a reflection of one who has
a strong distaste for expression by others of anti-Semitic/racist
sentiments.  Then again, perhaps Ehrlich has his own definition of
anti-Semitism.  Perhaps he would care to share with us his definition
as well as reposting these purported criticisms.  Just to refresh our
memory.

>My reward was to get pummeled
>for my rather mild essays in synthetic history.  

Synthetic is indeed quite an apt desciption of these "essays", which
as I recall were marked with ambiguities.  But  "pummeled"?  Does
questioning assertions and requesting citations constitute "pummeling"
according Ehrlich's rules of the game?

>So -- I will post what's

>From  what I have seen, Ehrlich is quick to take umbrage at anything
_he_ perceives as a "wrong" (or an attack) on him - regardless of the
_intent_, context or circumstances - and to use such *slights,*
_after_ they have been dealt with, in such a way as to lead the reader
to believe they have not. 

Yet, he is _extremely_ reluctant to admit that any of his _own_ words
could be perceived by others as insulting, sexist or inappropriate and
uncalled for.  In such cases it seems that _his_ intent (which he
customarily does not explain until well after the fact) is all that
matters.

Am I the only one who sees a double standard here?

Giwer-troll, you could try reading the paragraph you cited.  Try to
stretch your attention span to a full minute.  

But while we are on this subject, I would add that it is also
fortunate that the statements are on file, in the event that Ehrlich
chooses a month or so from now to insist that he *never* made such
statements.  He has been known to do this.  And it is interesting to
note that when Ehrlich is proven wrong, he adopts the troll's inept
posturing.  

Perhaps this is why he feels the need to make such indefensible
statements about the troll.

The introduction continues:

"In his chapter entitled "Slave Labor and Mass Murder," some of which

"Final Solution" quickly and efficiently. Even at the risk of denying
the German military machine sufficient rubber and petroleum products
to support the war effort, the Jews arriving at Auschwitz must be
ruthlessly destroyed..."

Unless I am mistaken "Monowitz" was part of the Auschwitz complex. I
do not have Taylor's book so I cannot fathom Ehrlich's point here.
Perhaps others could comment on the accuracy of Ehrlich's statements -
or whether they might benefit from some context.  Nonetheless readers
may decide for themselves whether Schact was deserving of being dubbed
as "simply another Nazi thug":

And of course, what proponents of the "linking=support argument"

If the troll had a modicum of literacy, instead of the above he would
have written:

	"To whom do you think I am beholden in life?"

But in any event, it does seem highly unlikely that any
self-respecting person would _voluntarily_ choose to demonstrate the
ignorance, arrogance, dishonesty and total lack of any positive human
attributes - as frequently and consistently as does the troll.   

It would therefore not be unreasonable to think that there may well be
a piper calling his tune.   And if so, it must be an ironclad contract
too, because the troll's record is quite clear:  the piper is wasting
his money.  Rare is the troll-post that does not provide evidence of
one or more of his many inadequacies and/or failures in life.

The reader will no doubt recall that, in fact, Ehrlich has been asked
many questions which he has promptly ignored.  In the above summary of
the discussion which ensued from his "mauve discovery" one would think
that he had conveniently forgotten that he was also given many
explanations.  One might ask why Ehrlich chose to omit mention of the
explanations and offer instead a picture that borders on martyrdom.

I have seen no such "commitment[s]"  OTOH, Ehrlich's posts indicate
that he "[hasn't] the slightest idea":

o  of how to engage in *honest* debate

o  of basic courtesy and usenet etiquette

o  that support of a boorish and foul-mouthed troll discredits the
supporter repeatedly

o  that conspicuous silences and dangling threads tell us far more
than pompous self-serving ramblings 

o  that much-delayed explanations of the "intent" of obviously
ambiguous - but nonetheless demeaning - remarks, directed at another
participant of this newsgroup, insult the intelligence of the writer's
audience

Well, Yale, it is also possible that Li'l Tommy is warming up for
another endorsement from DvdThomas - or better yet, being given the
ultimate stamp of approval by a citation in one of Ingrid's Z-grams
(wherein he _was_ praised and quoted, albeit not by name, the other
day!)

Alec, as far as I can see, he defeats himself and his recycled
contentions  - and _proves_ his _lack_ of knowledge, civility,
intellect, honesty, comprehension and ability to reason - with every
post he makes.

His inept trolleries, specious word games, spurious "arguments" and
boorish, libellous, foul-mouthed invective are nothing more than a
waste of bandwidth.

He seems to think it's a game.  Well, as someone once said "small
things amuse small minds."  Even at that, he's a very inadequate
player.

Perhaps the _only_ useful purpose he has served is to confirm (for any
reasonable person who might have doubted it) just how devoid of
honesty the "revisionism" of Ehrlich and DvdThomas - who imagine that
he is worthy of respect and that his posts have some value - really
is!

What's to pity?  He has no self-esteem, so?  Tough.  He's a grown man
(well, at least chronologically) and he's made his bed. Let him lie in
it.

Sorry, Mr. Hagen.  Like many who read your initial salvo and the
responses to which you refer, I find that your assertion is patently
untrue.  It would appear that this "omnibus" response of yours is
built on many false premises.  And frankly if, as you claim, the
remainder of your post is a demonstration of your "diligence," then
one might reasonably conclude that you are somewhat short in the
"diligence" department.   I would add that your name-calling says far
more about you than about those whom you would dismiss by such ad
hominem attacks.

Perhaps you would like to start again, and this time it would _really_
help if you would be courteous enough to include the specifics (along
with citations) which elucidate the points you are attempting to make.

The only inference I can draw from your minimizing "apologia" and
conclusion is that - like so many before you - you have _chosen_ to
deliberately ignore the mountain of evidence and testimony that _is_
available. This evidence and testimony has been rigourously examined
by those who have the skills to do so. They have concluded - beyond
all shadow of a doubt - that gas chambers were, indeed, both present
and used as one of the instruments of the Nazi Holocaust which
resulted in the murder of approximately 12 million innocent people -
about half of whom were Jewish.

And - like all reasonable people - I'll take their view over yours
anyday, Mr. Hagen.

>And I will congratulate you for being

Your "very honest view"?  Oh, dear!  I rather think that those who
hold and present an "honest view" would have no need to so proclaim.
To my mind, "honest views" are usually self-evident.  

If your view were "honest" you would, instead of merely "dismissing"
the evidence, present a logical and rational _alternative_ explanation
of the facts.  But to the extent that you have declined to do so, I
shall concede that you are among those who mistakenly call themselves
"revisionists."

Comment: that may be Ehrlich's recollection, but experience has shown
we cannot depend on Ehrlich's recollection.  He has been known to
_adamantly_ claim he *never* wrote "Rekindling Ovens - Dachau
Gassings?"  - when in fact he most definitely had. [see my post of
June 29/96 "Untangling" for documentation.]

However, a quick search of DejaNews turned up no post that I could
find which contained the text "transcripts cost $10 a page in
Toronto".  I would also note that a search for *exploding corpses*
refreshed my memory that this was _not_ one of Lagace's claims, but
rather it was a hobby-horse of Ole Kreiberg [  if
you'd like to check it out with him, Ehrlich]

So, perhaps Ehrlich would be kind enough to provide some documentation
for his claim.  Because I, for one, do not know that he was told that.
OTOH if Ehrlich is interested in the Zundel case, the Supreme Court of
Canada 1992 Zundel Judgement is available on Nizkor:

The fact is that "revisionists" seem to have a very difficult time
"tightening up" their arguments even with the abundance of material
that is currently available.  Given their demonstrated "scholarly"
ways, I fail to see that the inexpensive access for which Ehrlich
pleads would necessarily improve their arguments.  Besides, the Soviet
archives have been open for about four years now; and historians have
found that the material further supports the previously known facts.

I find that this newsgroup seems to spend all of its time debating
whether or not there were gas chambers, or more precisely, how many
people died in them.  Frankly, I don't dwell on the extermination
aspect very much because it is vitriolic and not just on this board,
it is in the literature also (Sorry, Mike, no titles.)

[text deleted for brevity. hro]

Gas Chambers are not good for anybody, and are largely irrelevant.
This issue will be settled when that is realized



Golly, gee, Mr. E. if as you say "gas chambers are largely
irrelevant," why would you choose to spend so much time discussing
the minutiae thereof?

I wonder if he'll answer this question "honestly" - or if we shall
hear yet another refrain of the Sounds of Silence.

Thank you so much for this "enlightening" contribution to the
discussion, Ehrlich.  I don't know how we could have lived without it
- nor am I certain of its relevance to the price of tea in China (or
to the facts and historicity of the Holocaust for that matter).  

But since you are still here, when might we expect your responses to
one or more of the many threads you have left dangling - while
questions put to you remain unanswered?

Perhaps Mr. Thomas will be kind enough to forward this apology to
Ehrlich.  It does serve as an excellent example of how a gentleman
acknowledges his error and apologizes.  No muss, no fuss, no
self-serving back-pedalling or denials - or after-the-fact lectures on
"intent."

The troll once again demonstrates his inability to respond rationally
or with civility  - or to acknowledge yet another defeat.

In addition, the troll - who has yet to demonstrate any ability to
think for himself (or for anyone else) - continues to delude himself
by tedious name-calling. The troll mistakenly,  but transparently,
attributes to his opponent his own failures and ineptitude.

A noble sentiment, Mr. Thomas.  But what have you done to engage in
the search for "things that lead to tolerance" - other than your
whitewashing of the postings of a boorish foul-mouthed troll in an

Well, now that you have decided to come out of the
denier/distortionist closet,  Ehrlich - rather than attempting to
delude us that you are "trying to undercut deniers" -  your "beliefs"
cause no trouble.  Except perhaps to you - because those you have
shared with us, you can't seem to support with any facts. Your
ambiguity does, however, leave open to question whether you are
talking about Dresden photos or other photos.  Or are you talking
about all photos for all time?

As it is written, your statement of the "problem" makes no sense.
How does it follow that those who "fail to admit this" (whoever you
might be speaking for) would "therefore argue" that all photos are
fake?  Or are you just doing some "airbrushing" on the troll's image
here?

In any event, how does Soviet airbrushing in 1925 (assuming that the
date is correct) have any bearing on photos that were taken 15-20
years later by Soviets or non-Soviets?  Sorry! Not very convincing to
me.  Nor would it be even if the timing were a little closer.  In
fact, I cannot imagine that it would be convincing to any reasonable
person.

Surely you can do better than this, Ehrlich!  There's no sign of the
"impressive intellect, rapier wit, and comprehensive knowledge" that
you've told us about.

But, if you are just coasting while you prepare your next cobbling,
maybe you could take a look at some of the many threads you've left
dangling elsewhere in this newsgroup.  Or are you avoiding them
because your answers would be as flimsy and unconvincing as your
Soviet airbrushing argument?

Who in this newsgroup has denied that all sides were capable of

sides?  And how does this in anyway justify (or disprove?!) the
documented horrendous crimes of the Nazi regime and their
extermination policies and practices during the events that have come

H*ber's lies and misunderstanding of the meaning of the words
*censorship* and *revisionist* are hereby acknowledged.  When the
H*ber learns to read, perhaps the H*ber will realize that all
"holocaust lies", including those perpetrated in H*ber *perviews*, are
repeatedly challenged and soundly refuted every time.

Li'l Tommy, have you ever heard the expression "Rome wasn't built in a
day"?  Do you have any idea what it means?  How do you think it might
apply to Nizkor?  You are free to "think" whatever you like, but it
does not change the fact that Nizkor is under no obligation to cater
to _your_ silly little whims.  Try learning to do your own research
instead of acting like the pathetic lazy, lying, little cretin that
you are - just for a change.

If you can't read German, Li'l Tommy, then I guess you will just have
to wait.  In the meantime, go back to your remedial reading 101. And
if you have mastered the intricacies of your rigii yet, why not print
out this post and take it to your next class.  Since you obviously
just don't get it, ask your teacher to explain to you the meaning of
the following, in words that you might be able to understand:

The people who work on Nizkor are volunteers who do what they can in
their spare-time.  Meeting Li'l Tommy's demands is not a high
priority.

After you have successfully completed remedial reading 101, come back

that your profound deficiencies preclude your being able to recognize

No change.  He simply keeps recycling himself and his "material"

What would be your definition of "unmolested", Ehrlich?  Did such

the Nazis (whether in gas chambers or by any other means)?

Not only "Himmleresque" but "Hitleresque" - or did you forget that
part, Erhlich? Do take a look at Gord McFee's recent translation of
the June 15, 1977 (Munich) affidavit from Albert Speer . [ Subject:
Hitler and the Jews--the Final Solution
Message-ID: <4sch81$3j5a@news-s01.ny.us.ibm.net>]

Edith Stein? You mean the Jewish woman who became a Carmelite nun -
and was gassed at Auschwitz in 1942, because she was born Jewish?  Is
this your idea of how one could have "got around conceptions of
"wiping out all Jews"?

>There are also several references that you can come across here and there

>ethnicity who served in WW2.  

Oh well, since you don't care to cite these "references." for the time
being let's just deal with the first part of your post, Ehrlich.  When
you've answered these questions, perhaps we can move on to deal with
your other observations.  That is unless you prefer to sing another
round of The Sounds of Silence.

But if it isn't too much trouble, you might just clarify the "intent"
of the following:

>Third point is that German Jews were Germans.  They were 
>aware of their Jewishness, yes, but they loved their country.  
>In the balance of Nazi crimes, their treatment of their own 
>co-nationals was the most shameful, to me.

"In the balance of Nazi crimes"?  Are you suggesting that those German
Jews who became instruments of Nazi crimes did so _willingly_, if so
what is your evidence for this?  And please do enlighten us regarding
your criteria for placing Nazi crimes in the continuum of
"shamefulness."

Indeed Mr. Thomas.  This may be the most honest and succinct
self-assessment I have ever seen from a "revisionist scholar"

It certainly far surpasses Moran's insight of a few (no make that
*many*, or at least *several*) months back that he "must be offering
up thoroughly ridiculous questions and responses"!

He's obviously having treble trouble because his woof is worse than

Indeed Mr. Thomas.  This may be the most honest and succinct
self-assessment I have ever seen from a "revisionist scholar"

It certainly far surpasses Moran's insight of a few (no make that
*many*, or at least *several*) months back that he "must be offering
up thoroughly ridiculous questions and responses"!

Ah, yes!  The "ultimate" weapon of those who have _neither_ rational
argument on the topic _nor_ shred of evidence to support their
characterization of their opponents' observations and reasoned
arguments:  pin the "intimidation" tag on the opponent.  The
laughter-label to end all laughter-labels.

Ever thought of changing your userID to "budlite" - seems to me it
would be more in character than "budwrite"

If this is Ehrlich's "honest" opinion i.e. that this is all one can
draw from Mr/Ms SF924's postings, one can only wonder how Ehrlich
might describe the posts of Moran/Giwer/Huber et al if he were to move
beyond .

Then again, it could all be evasive bluster - because Ehrlich seems to
have once again jumped on his high-horse (although to his credit at
least this time he didn't *drop* anything en route) rather than answer
the questions:

>>Do you share David Irving's facist sympathies?

One wonders why Ehrlich prefers to make pronouncements based on his
admitted ignorance than to inform himself before engaging in a
discussion.  Ah, I see the "economic" justification for murder - just
like all the other totalitarian regimes.  Would Ehrlich have us
believe that the Nazis weren't so bad after all - except that (as he
told us elsewhere) they murdered their co-nationals?  Will we be given
a lesson on "class" next time Ehrlich is in ?

>However, the real question in my mind is a thesis of immediate
>extermination within the camp system versus shootings in the field.  I
>have severe reservations about the first part.  

One wonders whose "thesis" might this be. And what has led Ehrlich to
believe that it is an either/or proposition.  And since "immediate
extermination"  in gas chambers _was_ in fact practiced by the Nazis
in course of their implementation of The Final Solution - as all
accredited historians have confirmed - why is this a "real question"
in his mind.  Particularly since he has already declared that "gas
chambers are irrelevant."

How are Ehrlich's "reasons" any different from those of the
"revisionists" with whom he claims to differ?  And why does he
_ignore_ the copious evidence from the Nazis' own records?  Is it
because he cannot find a convenient way of fitting them into his own
"thesis" (whatever it might be)?  

Could this be why Ehrlich has left so many threads dangling with
unanswered questions?

IOTW Ehrlich - who cannot make up his mind whether or not he wants us
to believe he is an "historian"  -  seems to recognize that the
pseudo-academic "scholarship" proffered by Raven, Smith, Zundel et al
in "support" of their contention that there were no gas chambers fails
to convince.  Perhaps he has found that their "scholarship" is not
sufficiently efficacious in planting seeds of doubt.

His approach is a kinder, gentler "revisionism."  He waffles between
admitting to the "possibility" of a "gassing thesis" [my what an open
mind the man has!]  to doubting "the scale of exterminations by gas"
His _justification_ for doubting the chemical evidence presented: _he_
is a non-chemist and is not convinced!

Ehrlich demonstrates little interest in the facts of the Holocaust -
indeed, this is yet another post in which he manages to speak about
the Holocaust, at considerable length, without even mentioning the
word.  

But he does like to exercise his "freedom to speculate." It seems that
he expects the reader to kowtow to his "impressive intellect and
knowledge" - without questioning or criticizing his repeated failure
to substantiate his cobblings - and be swept away by the
"reasonableness" of his "doubt"

He would also have the reader believe that there is virtue and merit
in what he has dubbed "skepticism" on the part of an ignorant,
boorish, foul-mouthed troll.  Ehrlich claims that he is "unlike most
revisionists." Perhaps this is where the difference lies - it is
certainly the only one that I have noticed of late! 

His "arguments" have such a familiar ring to them - although I shall
concede that the ring does have a more mellifluous, kinder and gentler
tone.

Posted/e-mailed to Mr. Van Alstine [who might not be aware that his
"argumentativeness" elsewhere was not deemed worthy of the courtesy of
a direct response by Ehrlich]

Speaking of the troll's putative "mind" ... watching his posts always
reminds me of the word game "Boggle."  Haven't played it for years,
but I remember lots of noise shaking up the letters and making
something out of whatever fell.  That seems to fit just about any
troll-post - mind boggling, although usually the only constant with a
troll-post is the noise.  He seems to have difficulty arranging what
falls in a way that might make sense.

Nice try Gord! But as you can see from the twit's response, Moran is
simply not among the educable.  As usual, he has latched onto one of

Moran obviously lives in the hope of attracting the attention and

And of course Ehrlich will appear in all his remonstrative glory to
vilify the troll.  No doubt he will protest vehemently against this
"sleazy" post which moves beyond mere "threat of exposure" to wilful
"contempt for personal privacy."  

[Not that the information is not accessible to anyone who knows how to
access Internic (and probably more than is available on the AOL
members' directory).  But it _is_ the principle.   Come to think of
it, I haven't seen any evidence of "principles" from either Ehrlich or
the troll.]

Ooops, I almost forgot!  When it comes to Ehrlich [tm] and the troll, "revisionism" reaches the
apex of its glory.  Poor maligned, misunderstood paragons of virtue
that they are.

Still, any bets on whether we shall be regaled with "Excuses for
Ehrlich's good buddy, Matt" or "Sounds of Silence" (that familiar
refrain Ehrlich likes *so* much)?

Or will Ehrlich simply jump on his high horse and denounce my post as
"flame bait"?!  Or perhaps DvdThomas or Moran will ride to the rescue!

The suspense is almost too much to bear!

Actually, Derek, he doesn't need to carry out any of his "threats" -
the troll falls flat on his face everytime he engages his keyboard (as
is demonstrated here daily)

The only element of curiosity I see in his postings is that Ehrlich
and (to a lesser extent) DvdThomas seem to think that the troll's
keyboard spewings are simply an expression of "skepticism."  I guess
that the blindness of "revisionists" must extend beyond the reality of
the Holocaust.

Well, not so fast Dr. Keren.  I am sure that in due course Ehrlich
will enlighten us by bringing his "impressive intellect and knowledge"
to bear and assuring us that the troll's declaration is quite correct
- or if not correct, then simply a legitimate expression of his
"skepticism"

There is another difference, of course, in that the fellow from Iraq
might not have had access to the facts (I didn't see the program, so I
don't know for sure!).  The troll, OTOH, does have access to the facts
but chooses to ignore them and/or lie.  After all the troll is only
capable of operating in two modes:  or

Either your recollection is faulty (will we see another apology or was

or your comprehension is way off base.  Do tell us who was
"threatening" your dear friend, the boorish foul-mouthed troll.

If you pay as much attention to the details of the Holocaust as you do
to the details of postings in this newsgroup, Ehrlich, it is no wonder
that you arrive at the erroneous conclusions with which you so
frequently regale us.

The interesting thing about the word "ehrlich" is that it means
"honest".  It is also interesting to note that one can say - in all
honesty - to the person who has adopted that nym in this newsgroup,
"You accept drivel from a troll."

[Ehrlich's cobblings snipped - didn't see anything he hasn't said
before.  But, like the boorish foul-mouthed troll whom he so admires,
he is trying - and becoming more so all the time]

One wonders if he uses a similar approach to teaching his "students"
(assuming that he really is a teacher)

>This is the problem: virtually all historians accept the Holocaust story,
>but they say virtually nothing about it.

Try again Ehrlich.  And this time perhaps you could show a little
respect for "facts" and "truth" instead of your habitual waffling and
"whitewashing" which, now that you have come out of the "denier
closet" is considerably more transparent than when you presented us
with your first re-invention of yourself.

Precisely _what_ would you like historians to say about the Holocaust,
Ehrlich?  Do you have some difficulty with the fact that so many have
examined the mountain of evidence that constitutes the historical
record - and that their conclusions bear no resemblance to those of
your much vaunted "revisionists" (who seem to prefer to ignore the
evidence)?

And, btw, the "cloak of skepticism" _you_ choose to don in order to
paint yourself as "different" from other "revisionists" is really
exactly the same colour as theirs:  you lie, you distort, and you play
posting games - just like the rest of them, because your "arguments,"
like theirs, have nothing solid to sustain them.

Ehrlich, the Holocaust is _not_ a "story", it is historical fact.
That's all.  But I did notice your silence on the following comment
earlier in this thread.  Perhaps you missed it:





>Be that as it may, I still cannot understand the constant 
>discussion on holocaust issues. I think it is passee (sp?). 
>The issues of importance are race, eugenics, economics, 
>etc...Holocaust denial or revisionism is part and parcel of 
>this train of thought, but not the only important issue. 
>For ex., the Holohoax should and can be seen as yet another 
>anti-goyim doing of the Talmudists vis-a-vis their Protocols. That is important! 



Do tell us again about the "impressive intellect and knowledge" which
you bring to bear while engaging in your "freedom to speculate",
Ehrlich.  (Perhaps you'd care to use it in explaining the above
excerpt.)

I particularly enjoyed your post the other day when you expressed your
"doubts" about the "scale of exterminations by gas."   As I recall,
you pronounced that - notwithstanding the chemical evidence presented
- you remained unconvinced because _you_ are a non-chemist.

OTOH, after several months of recycling himself and his drivel, he
_did_ manage to get the attention of Ehrlich ("independent denier"),
DvdThomas ("CODOH denier"), and Greg Raven "IHR website 'volunteer'
denier".  Raven has even given the troll a little corner of the IHR
website. Then again, perhaps such "serious" deniers are so hard-up for
support these days, they have to get it while they can.

Come to think of it, Ehrlich seems to enjoy echoing the troll in his
own posts.  Hmmm ... wonder what else they might have in common.

I rather think the "celebrity" status goes no further than his own
"163 IQ mind."  Seems to me he's made his bed - and he's choosing to
lie in it.

The only one who ever admitted to taking a powder was Moran.  But that
was back in December, I think.  Didn't help him though, as you may
have noticed.  As for "organized deniers" not wanting to be associated
with the troll, please see above.

One more time, Lyin Al, why did you edit Mr. Katz' post so
dishonestly?  

In any event, the forgery in question has nothing to do with
historical revisionism.  Nor does it have anything to do with the
Holocaust.  It does however seem to be of interest to those who
mistakenly call themselves "revisionists" and/or those - who like the
poster Mr. Katz was responding to - have delusions that there is some
merit to so-called "revisionist" arguments.

Excuse me, Mr. Scallon, but I think you are mistaken about Rich
Graves.  He may have some quirky views about some stuff, but I don't
think we are ready to call him a "revisionist" yet   Perhaps you
are thinking about _George_ Graves who made a brief appearance here
some months ago.  But if you ask Rich _Green_, I think he has "the

Gee, you're right, Gord!  Let's see if we can rationalize this so that
you can join our exclusive club:  hmmm ... well, I'm not at all "fat"
[although I understand that I hold the record for being addressed as
such] so if I can be dubbed "fatbroad" you could probably be called
"fatbroad" too, even though you are not female.  Of course if you are
not "fat" either, I'm not sure how we can accommodate a "double
negative" ... perhaps you could consider going on a special diet to
gain weight?  Failing that, we could just call you an "honorary
fatbroad." Would that do?!

Of course it will not be the troll's credibility.  He has none!  And

He's so obtuse he doesn't even realize that, while we might have
considered him quite curious in his early days here, after his second
recycling he became entirely too predictable to have even the
slightest curiosity value.

My what a pseudo-rational paragraph from the troll.  What he neglects
to mention (as do all "revisionist scholars" when they encounter such
reports) is that the "passionate attraction" is attributable only to
the "revisionists" themselves!

They are so bereft of logic or reason in their "arguments" that they
remain in perpetually recycled focus on such *apparently*
"unbelievable" details in order to engage in their deceptive
practices. In this case, to persuade those who - through no fault of
their own - might not know better, that all such testimony is not to
be believed, ergo the Holocaust didn't happen.

And the witless troll, rather than dealing with the reality of the
Holocaust, simply parrots whatever he pastes and appends whatever
insult or ad hominem strikes his fancy.  

However, the troll has demonstrated that he is totally incapable of
dealing with _any_ reality.  So this behaviour is not in the least
surprising.  It is a waste of time and bandwidth, but he is so
predictable that it is what we have come to expect from him.

Regardless of his IQ (which I would be inclined to think is probably
below 83) the one thing we _can_ be assured of is that the troll is
profoundly ignorant of all matters on which he proclaims himself
knowledgeable.

Really?!  So in other words, you _again_ take no responsibility for
_your_ posts.  How Giwerish of you, Ehrlich.  Oh, and btw, can we
reasonably assume that your "quoting" was as selective as your recent
"quoting" from Lipstadt?

Is this simply another exercise of your "freedom to speculate" or is
it a function of your "skepticism"?  If the latter do you "remain
unconvinced" because you do not speak German - as you were following
presentation of chemical evidence because you were not a chemist?  

Do tell us again about your "impressive intellect and knowledge,"
Ehrlich.

Trust Li'l Tommy!  I think he _thinks_ he's being *clever* - and this
is about as clever as Moran ever gets, folks.  Of course, if he ever
learned how to follow a thread - and/or developed the reading
comprehension skills and knowledge of grammar that every 10-year old
kid has - poor Li'l Tommy would find out very quickly that, on a scale
of 1 to 10, his *cleverness rating* is probably somewhere in the range
of

Actually the URL that works is:

[troll's useless comment snipped]

This page is actually one of a series of essays that are part of the
site.  For an appropriate context, the reader may wish to start at the
Introduction:

http://www.remember.org/educate/cintro.html

"[...] I will examine in depth three examples of Holocaust memoirs by
women: From Ashes to Life, by survivor Lucille E., the venerable Diary
of Anne Frank, and Life? or Theater?, the autobiographical pictorial
operetta of Charlotte Salomon, who died at Auschwitz (and Mary
Lowenthal Felstiner's investigation of her work). I do not hope or
plan to reach a satisfying conclusion, all loose ends neatly tied up.
Such an ambition would belittle the enormous complexity and dreadful
scope of the Shoah. Instead, this paper seeks to put all these
different strains of inquiry and different authors into dialogue with
one another, rotating them between the three general areas of
feminism, Holocaust Studies, and the concept of memoir.

Excuse me, Mr. Scallon, but I think you are mistaken about Rich
Graves.  He may have some quirky views about some stuff, but I don't

are thinking about _George_ Graves who made a brief appearance here

In light of Tommy's tendency[1] to argue vehemently and/or
unintelligibly against any post containing factual information he
doesn't understand (or feigns not to understand), one might reasonably
assume that the merciful absence of his inanities, when he plays this
little game, is an indication of his concurrence with the points I am
making.

Thank you Li'l Tommy.  Although, in all modesty, I rather think that
readers who do visit Nizkor will agree that this thread is very
inappropriately named.  Why not put your *cleverness* to work Li'l
Tommy and see if you can come up with a different title for the
thread.

[1] Li'l Tommy also has other tendencies - the predominant one being a
tendency to lie.   For a brief sample of this, as well as a
demonstration of his apparent inability to read, please see:

Hmmm ... well, you may hold the record for being dubbed "murderer" by
the troll-bot, but I don't think *it* has ever called _you_ a
"fatbroad.":>)

Of course, what Giwer, Moran, H*ber, Kreiberg, "Vyshinsky" et al fail
to realize is that the more they recycle their ignorant and/or
hate-filled drivel, the more they damn themselves in the eyes of
reasonable people.  

While their stupidity seems to know no bounds, their misinformed MUSH
[Multi User Senseless Harpings] - whether misanthropic, misogynistic
or merely malevolent - invariably merges into merit-free monotony.
This MUSH holds no appeal whatsoever except - as we have seen here on
occasion - to *like-minded* societal misfits.

No doubt their ineptitude and ignorance preclude their paying heed to
the "early ehrlichian wisdom"[tm] that people here are judged solely
by what they say.  Mind you, it seems that since Ehrlich came out of
the denier-closet, he isn't paying heed to that either - so why should
they?!

Why _anyone_ would want to censor - or otherwise limit access to -
their MUSH is completely beyond me!   There is no doubt in my mind
that all MUSH-makers are their own worst enemies.

Come on Gord, don't exaggerate ... we all know it is a conspiracy of
one:  The only hobgoblin conspiring against the troll is the troll
himself (although sometimes his friendly ghost-writer helps him out)

OK, trolling anonymous one, please do explain what possible relevance
_Schindler's List_ (note the correct spelling, btw) - and/or the
bandwidth-wasting blathering you posted - has to the above response
>from  Dr. Keren.

Are you gearing up to be the new, improved G*wer-troll after he's run
himself out of this newsgroup?  OTOH, if you simply want to prove your
ignorance, you've already succeeded admirably and no further
demonstrations are required.

Gee, maybe you will get lucky, Vyshinsky, and Ehrlich will jump on his
high horse to cloak you with credibility as well.

Excuse me, Mr. Scallon, but I think you are mistaken about Rich
Graves.  He may have some quirky views about some stuff, but I don't
think we are ready to call him a "revisionist" yet   Perhaps you
are thinking about _George_ Graves who made a brief appearance here
some months ago.  But if you ask Rich _Green_, I think he has "the

Well, if you happen to like your box of popcorn with beluga caviar and
drenched in Dom Perignon, no wonder you keep it private. But I'll
settle for the non-soggy, non-fishy popcorn, thank you very much.

That's very nice Ehrlich, but I don't suppose you'd care to tell us
what it was you "posted about Minsk the other day."  A "Subject
Line/Topic and message ID would be a very helpful start.  And  a quote
or summary of the relevant comments would be even better.  It might
also help if you could tell us which part of the quoted report - which
you deleted from your response to Mr. Abel's post - you believe
confirms whatever it was you posted.  Or is debate by shorthand and/or
mindreading just a natural by-product of exercising one's "freedom to
speculate"?

I suppose you will get to this right after you send Mr. McCarthy and
Mr. McFee a copy of the outgassing graph you claim to have in your
possession - or perhaps after you deign to answer some of the many
questions you've left dangling in so many other threads.

Hmmm ... sounds like Moran has provided a very perceptive description
of Ernst "Flying Saucers 'R Us" Zundel.

Very rare for him to be so insightful though.  I think the last time I
saw any insight from Moran  was when he acknowledged that he "must be
offering up thoroughly ridiculous questions and responses."  

I guess these little bursts of honesty must set your rigii back a byte
or two, eh, Li'l Tommy?

I think you are on better ground recognizing that you have made a
serious error in judgement which you exacerbate with each troll-post
you attempt to bolster with your spurious pontifications.  For one
thing there are already several threads you have left dangling with
issues you have failed to address.  In other words, you not only have
your earlier cobblings to account for but also have yet to demonstrate
your "impressive intellect and knowledge" allowing you jump on your

times.

Caps lock on your keyboard stuck again, Tommy?!  Anyway, perhaps the
following will answer your question:

     "The anti-semite rejoices at any opportunity to vent his malice.
The times have made it unpopular, in the West, to proclaim openly a
hatred of the Jews. 

     This being the case, the anti-semite must constantly seek new
forms and forums for his poison. How he must revel in the new
masquerade. He does not hate Jews, he is just 'anti-Zionist'."
[Dr. Martin Luther King, letter to a friend, 1967]

To which I would add:  

30 years later it would appear that the anti-Semite's new form is
Holocaust denial - and his forum the Internet.  30 years later, he
wraps his keyboard in the flag of freedom of speech and it would seem
that the times are making it more popular - if not an imperative - to
tolerate open hatred of the Jews - or of any other
group.

Yes - an example of chutzpah, as practiced by Tom Moran!  However it
is also an example of his failure to develop the reading comprehension
skills of a ten-year old - as the following "interpretation" of the
above quote demonstrates:

Since no one has made this claim except Moran, it would seem that he
acknowledging that he is an idiot.  Hey, folks, maybe this poster is
making progress after all!

Actually Chris, if you check the "Official ZOGistory of the World
Encylopedia," in Chapter XI - "Vote Fixing," you will see that the
"black helicopter ride" gambit was long ago rejected (too many voters
seemed to have a fear of flying).  We found a far more effective
strategy was the simple expedient of giving out vouchers for
prestigious  (in those days we didn't have to engage in rampant
commercialism) ZOGger-T's.  It was actually a 2-step process: one
voucher to register and the second on exit from the voting booth (our
agents monitored voting via hidden cameras so we could easily weed out
the cheaters).  Then all they had to do was mail-in the vouchers and
we sent the ZOGger-T by return post.

Of course, after we perfected the techniques of TSA (targetted
subliminal advertising) this strategy became superfluous.  The
remaining stock of ZOGger-T's sat in warehouses for many years.  But,
now that we're into recycling, we've dusted them off.  Check in
alt.revisionism for an exciting offer from ZOG-Canada Marketing, btw.
I know you won't want to miss out on this one!

Mr/Ms. Blackmore:

Perhaps, since you choose not to observe customary USENET courtesies
and conventions, you would care to elaborate on this comment.  You
could start by giving some indication of what I might have said - and
where - that has led you to this particular erroneous conclusion.

Gee, this has _such_ a familiar ring to it!  When Ehrlich moves from
 to  he always throws a curve ball.  The
spin is invariably - and unmistakeably - [tm]

No need to be careful with anything Mark says.   Mark has his books at
hand, as opposed to Ehrlich whose books are always "in the attic."
Hmmm ... perhaps that's why he doesn't get the titles right sometimes.


Unlike Ehrlich, if Mark makes an assertion, he cites a source.
Although, to be fair, sometimes Ehrlich does cite a source too,  But
if one checks Mark's sources, one will _not_ find that the quoting has
been selectively and dishonestly edited.  However, if one checks
Ehrlich's citations one often finds that he _has_ engaged in selective
and dishonest editing.

I doubt that any reasonable person would find "invective" in Mark 's
post.  Calling a hypocrite a hypocrite is _not_ invective.  It is
simply a statement of fact.  And Ehrlich has proven himself to be a
hypocrite.

>BTW, I don't mean by that that I don't learn something in disputes with
>you, but you don't hyperventilate as much as MVA. :)

If Ehrlich has learned anything from the non-deniers posting to this
newsgroup, he has yet to demonstrate it.  OTOH, the lessons he has
learned from his good friend, the Giwer-troll, have been _very_ much
in evidence.  

Oh, and speaking of "invective," I can't help wondering why he falsely
accuses Mark of "hyperventilating" (perhaps Moran helped him with that
one?!). All Mark has done is demonstrate Ehrlich's lack of "impressive
intellect and knowledge"  (not to mention Ehrlich's transparent
downhill-slide in the intellectual honesty department).

Wonder what Ehrlich will do next?!  Distract from the 
by cobbling another thread?  A few more rounds of the "Sounds of
Silence" perhaps?  Back to his ghost-writing as, wounded to the quick,
he jumps on his high horse,  and rides off into the land of the
lurkers - again?! 

Or will he acknowledge his errors, apologize to Mark, and retract his
statements (what a novel concept that must be to him!)?
