And so it becomes ad hominem. If you perceive my bluntness as hostility, then that's a mistake. I acknowledge that I'm no diplomat (never have been) and if you'd had the long career arguing with the boneheads that I've had to argue with, you'd probably be the same. If you knew me, you'd know I'm not hostile (except in extremely rare circumstances that have yet to arise here). But if I see something as "rubbish" I won't hesitate to say so - it used to be my job.
PS: The profanity was being used for emphasis, as it often is - watch some late night TV talk shows, and I'm sure you'll see what I mean - it's quite common.  |
This one a long time have I watched.....Much anger in him.
Re: The Squirrel...Yes it is French but it was perceived that we were blackmailed into buying this Helicopter to keep spares flowing for the Mirage...true...I have no idea. The rumour came from some fact...then possibly distorted.
