Oh, and may I add. Way to keep a thread alive that you declared "done
for you" yesterday.
I don't think you are a shill for Sprint at all, I think you are a
shill for some company that sells realy, really bad dictionaries.
For the REAL definition of "done", check out www.dictionary.com ->
"done".

You didn't say that the guy was relaying a story that never happened?
You didn't say you were done with this thread?
Blast those Usenet post re-writers!
You can't post anything anymore without some Usenet hacker breaking
into the global NetNews spool and rewording your posts.
They are probably pesky Sprint customers. I hear those "customer" guys
are really nasty, untrustworthy fellows.

Then might I suggest you learn to read?

I CAN provide several message ID's where he "suggested" as much. I'm
not sure why anyone would post the message ID's though. Just read the
thread, and there they are.
I'm not going to post the IP address of www.cnn.com either, but that
doesn't mean it's not there. And if you can't find it, that's your
problem *shrug*
> I seem to recall that he indicated that the OP did not represent the entire story ... or >all of the facts.
He "indicated" this even though he had aboslutely no evidence to
support the claim. None whatsoever. Nor was he present. The OP was
the only person on the thread present.
When you tell someone who was there, that they "are not representing
the entire story or all of the story or all of the facts", you are
calling them a liar.
And grass is green and the sky is blue.
Why do you think the OP was not given the benefit of the doubt by Rob?
Why do you think Rob opined that he thought he was lying, no wait,
exuse me .... why do you think Rob opined that the OP "was not
representing the entire story or all of the facts"?
>The OP may be guilty of ommision, but has not been accused to be guilty of lying.
The OP may be guilty of nothing.
Why has the OP been accused of anything?

Ad-hominem attacks are the intellectual debating tactics of the

Then how you could have missed it escaped me. I simply cannot explain

Not sure what this means (is this a good thing? bad thing? legitimate
bragging point?) or how it is relevant in any way, shape or form ...
but okay. Duly noted.
Congratulations .......... I guess. *shrug*

Re: Sprint committing outright FRAUD
>This has nothing to do with reading comprehension. This has to do with
>your inferences.
I just read what is posted.
I asked Rob to clarify, but he declined (because he says he doesn't
reply to people like me, even thoguh he clearly does).
And really, "infer" doesn't really mean much here.
The statement was self evident.
One can "infer" that the sum of one and one is two. it's not an
inference that many rational people would debate.
>At no point was there an implication of a lie.
Well, at least that is your take on it.
Most everyone I know would take something along the lines of "I think
you omitted information and facts from your account of events" to mean
that the person relaying the information was not being honest. In
other words, lying.
Maybe where you are from, as long as you don't utter a specific word,
you can pretty much call someone whatever you want to via every other
similar word and then point to the word you didn't say as evidence that
you never called the person what you did, indeed, call them.
But like I said, we don't do that here.
We have a vast language and use a large amount of words and have many
ways to convey any given point.
And where I live, Rob just called the OP a liar (or dishonest,
unruthful, or any number of similar words).
>Instead, you have made such an inference.
No, actually I think the OP was telling the truth. Since I wasn't
there, and have no reason to believe otherwise, I am going to take his
word for it. Nobody has presented any evidence to the contrary.
I don't know why the OP has been presumed to have made some sort of
error.
Nobody has been able to articulate a reason why there is reason to
beleive that he is "ommitting facts or information".
>Actually, you won't because no post out there implies that OP lied.
I won't what?
And there are several posts that "imply" that the OP lied.
And you know there are.
I'm assuming you are taking the position that if you say something
often enough that it will become true. Good luck with that. When you
have several posts in the thread "implying" that the guy did not tell
the truth, it's going to be a tough sell.
Please indulge me if you will. If "The OP ommitted information and
facts from his first hand knowledge of the encounter", what does that
imply to you? If it does not imply that he is lying, then what do you
think such a statement is trying to make about the OP? He was just
confused? He's not very bright? Do you think he accidentally ommitted
such information? What would make you think that?
Maybe if you could explain, I would understand your regional dialect
better.

Nope. Hasn't changed. It's just two or three people here that have
convinced themselves they have some psychic connection to Sprint's
payroll department.

The American Heritage Dictionary definition of the noun "lie":
1) A false statement deliberately presented as being true
2) Something meant to decieve or give a wrong impression
Purposely leaving out facts or misrepresenting the story would be a
lie by definition 2).
Rob, whether he wants to admit it or not, most certainly did call the
OP a liar, by any reasonable definition, and more than once.

And I wish you would stop whining about this thread, but that's not
going to happen either. Or better yet, if it bugs you so much, why in
the hec don't you just figure out how to make your newsreader ignore
this thread???

Re: Sprint committing outright FRAUD
It is simple to make the newsreader ignore the thread. The problem is the
nature of the folks that just will not let it go.
