MV has been trolling and posting HIS view, HIS exaggerated
data, HIS warped environmental extremism, etc.... for years.
(and I mean years. The first time I saw his posts, he was
working on his "off limits" to humans agenda only 5 years
"fighting auto dependence and road construction".) It has
been pointed out time and time again: 1. He has no desire
for a debate of ANY factual information. 2. His ONLY desire
is to flame the issues with confusing information and name-
calling. 3. Other environmental groups stay away from him
and his claims. 4. His arguments usually come off more like
a "Monty Python" sketch with little substance but much
entertainment. Unfortunately, while it does seem to give
some sort of satisfaction to try to "argue" with this
character, it is much more useful to simply ignore him. Read
his posts... track what he's up to (he often states it to
satisfy his own ego, I suppose) and confront him on grounds
that actually help. (Ex: at public meetings, at the polls,
at conferences, and so forth) In the meantime... every
minute spent typing with this idiot is another minute of
your time wasted inflating his ego. He's a crackpot. Even
his PhD dissertation at UCLA had NOTHING to do with this
field of study. Why he adds the PhD to his name in this
forum is ridiculous:
PhD DISSERTATION, at UCLA Vandeman, Michael Joseph, 1943-
Chemical description of food taste preferences among Black-,
Japanese-, and Mexican-Americans derived by means of
nonmetric multidimensional scaling by Michael Joseph
Vandeman. 1973
If you really want to bother him... Pacbell has a "use
policy" on its service. Every time he posts an inflamatory,
accusatory, or any other post than can be shown to be usenet
abuse, forward it to
[email protected]. Read the policy...
there is a specific area for usenet policy and courtesy.
Ignore him... he hates that.
