Paul Davis: Lying Scumbag

Please read my response to Paul Davis immediately below. Once again, Davis comes out of the woodwork to spew his baldfaced lies.

He posts what he claims is a 'prediction' by me. The alleged prediction was made by someone else and I commented upon it and CRITICZED it. My comments are ONLY those BELOW the double bar.

In his haste to find fault with me, Davis utterly fails to attribute the comments properly.

Paul: I have a terrible problem. I relocated to the country, well off of main state highways, on three acres. I've got rabbits, chickens, potbellied pigs, and goats, plus feel comfortable about my preps in other areas. Also alternate sources of water.

Now the problem is, after I moved, someone built a convenience store 4.8 miles from my new home.

Any suggestions? [BG}

Seriously, good to see you back. Don't be a stranger.

Mr. Milne and Kristi--the Mad Deleter fixes.

I make house calls too, but don't do windows ;-)

On January 10, 1999 I want Paul Milne to come on this forum and post a polaroid of himself kissing his own ass and apologizing for all the bullshit and bald faced lies HE has been spewing for the past year and a half.

-- (pig@farmers.make lousy leaders), September 17, 1999.

With the number of Y2K disruptions we're seeing *TO DATE*.....I request you kiss my pig's ass right now!

-- Will continue (farming@home.com), September 17, 1999.

Wow. That was the cyber equivalent of coitus interruptus.

-- Spidey (in@jam.awestruck), September 17, 1999.

PAULY-ANNA DAVIS, YOU ARE A STUPID, FRIGGING, WORM OF A BONE-HEADED, DUMBASS, MORONIC PIECE OF CRAP!!!!!

But, since you did at least APOLOGIZE to Paul Milne in the preceding thread, I will let it go at that.

-- King of Spain (madrid@aol.com), September 17, 1999.

I cannot remember the thread, but Paul Milne provided his specific economic predictions for the post-rollover world. If I remember correctly, Milne predicted a total collapse of the U.S. economy. If anyone remembers this thread, please help me. I can't remember exactly what I predicted, but it was probably back in April-May.

Thanks.

a@a.a is the one who SHOULD apologize (Davis being the bigger man, ap'ed anyway) If butthead hadn't titled his bootlicking re-post of milknee 'chaos in 90 days' this wouldn't have happened. OR if milne would only talk about things he understands, and not spew garbage like a scow, that would fix things as well. Normal people wouldn't be so eager to prove him wrong if he wasn't such an asshole to everyone he comes into contact with.

Alphabet Soup:

Now surely, if you were going to make a statement to the world that somebody had made a prediction that failed to come true, wouldn't you CHECK AND RE-CHECK before you stuck your neck on the block?? And, in lieu of checking, would you rely on a one sentence ambiguous thread title posted by a poster with whom you had many, many times disagreed with on the interpretation of stuff just like that??

What is your problem, anyway, besides being an asshole?

-- King of Spain (madrid@aol.com), September 17, 1999.

In the past year that I've been reading Milne's posts, I've noticed he projects 'rude & crude' language (oh, shudder) toward the Y2K 'deaf, dumb & blind' ONLY.

Get over it. :)

-- Will continue (farming@home.com), September 17, 1999.

Will,

Good to see you are consistent. Milne is excused for poor behavior because he is addressing folks who do not share his views on Y2K. I simply do not agree.

-- Ken Decker (kcdecker@worldnet.att.net), September 17, 1999.

"poor behaviour"....

asshole

-- Andy (2000EOD@prodigy.net), September 17, 1999.

Sysop, don't delete this one either.LOL

-- KoFE (your@town.USA), September 17, 1999.

Paul Milne is going to be the laughing stock of the USA in a few months. Don't even bother to argue with the asshole. bwaaaahahahaahahaha

-- (sickofthis@crap.com), September 17, 1999.

Piglet; Paul has NEVER LIED..... His opinions may have been wrong at times, but he has NEVER LIED! One more thing for you asshole's out there, he has only tried to protect people from the unknown !!!!!!! And;;;;; NO PAUL DID'NT PAY ME TO POST THIS! I don't even know the man!

-- FLAME AWAY (BLehman202@aol.com), September 17, 1999.

On January 10, 1999 I want Paul Milne to come on this forum and post a polaroid of himself

Sorry time travel exists only in science fiction. Wish it were otherwise and we could roll back the clock...

-- Count Vronsky (vronsky@anna.com), September 17, 1999.

Whatever Paul Milne posts is whatever he thinks.

Those who disagree are at the mercy of his scathing wit.

If you can't deal now with someone of Paul Milne's mindset, then your days are numbered when we meet on the other side where knives and guns speak suddenly.

Yes, pigs can fly in hurricanes, but I prefer the aftermath of pork rinds.

pig,

I think you meant "January 10, 1900".

On the topic of that June forecast about liquidity (it wasn't Paul Milne's forecast)...

http://www.freerepublic.com/forum/a376451f03941.htm

...did anyone notice these remarks made today by Alan Greenspan?

[snip]

While the evidence of precautionary inventory hedging to date is mixed, in the financial sphere, borrowers and lenders are clearly taking steps to build liquid assets and reduce their reliance on credit markets around the end of the year. This is reflected in a noticeable rise in deposit and commercial paper rates for funding that would be outstanding over year's end. Many corporate treasurers have moved forward their debt offerings to avoid any chance of a dearth of credit availability in the fourth quarter or difficulties funding short-term liabilities. The Century Date Change Special Liquidity Facility of the discount window that was approved by the Federal Reserve Board in July and the contingency actions of the Federal Open Market Committee announced by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York on September 8 should help to ensure an ample supply of liquidity and relieve funding pressures.

[snip]Nonetheless, we have not yet reached the period of extra heavy focus by the media on the CDC. It is too compelling a story for audiences that thrive on countdowns to the unknown. As attention heightens and rumors inevitably mushroom, it is important that what is known and what is not known be clearly articulated by those of us in both public and private leadership positions in Y2K management. In the final analysis, facts are the only antidote for rumors.

We at the Federal Reserve are optimistic that computer problems associated with the Century Date Change and the response to the CDC will not be a major event for our nation. This is a testament to the extraordinary efforts of thousands of far-sighted technicians and business planners who, confronted with an intangible and abstract problem, have been able to convince businesses and governments to marshal vast resources for remedial actions. This has been a truly impressive feat. If we avoid fear-induced, significant economic responses in the months ahead, the Century Date Change will hopefully replicate the saga of "the dog that did not bark."

Some FACTS, as presented by Congressman James Leach, Chairman of the House Banking Committee on November 4, 1997:

"Experts also emphasise that the problem must be fixed properly and on time if Year 2000 related problems are to be avoided. I was intrigued by a statement Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan made a couple of years ago. He pointed out that 99 percent readiness for the Year 2000 will not be enough. It must be 100 percent. Thus, the message seems clear: all financial institutions must be ready; federal and state regulatory agencies must be ready; data processing service providers and other bank vendors must be ready; bank customers and borrowers must be ready."

I've seen NO 'facts' which support a conclusion that ALL aspects of the financial industry, both domestically AND Internationally, are ready. The result of this missed deadline and incomplete remediation will result in the failure of the industry on a world-wide basis......and that's not 'rumor', that's a 'fact'.

"99 percent readiness for the Year 2000 will not be enough. It must be 100 percent."

World-Wide.........
