You've mentioned exposing unknown truths as a form of bullying. could you elaborate on that? particularly, what makes it bullying?

RE:why would you be afraid of me?

No I am not afraid of you. I just don't want to fight. Do I not want to say what I really want to say for worry of being called a name? yes.

Do you call any of the guys names?? I don't recall.

RE: exposing unknown truths as a form of bullying.

I said

I am refering to the co 2 poisoning and someother things Mari has said that you all have been trying to debunk. I know you are not alone in that thinking so excuse me for singling you out when others are just as quilty. As you say you can be meaner about it. Your word is respected so you can bring a persons character down on a message board if you want. You carry alot of weight so you should be more careful how you approach a matter? The difference between having tact and not?


Believe me I can be tactless but I am learning I think. Certain kinds of dry sacrasim which might be funny in real life dosn't translate in print so well. I can empathize but I would never single one person out for name calling and story telling in an effort to make them look like a lier even if they were.
