BTW, the basic law of the universe is that I
frequently have a minority view, not that I'm 
rarely right. So the law that got violated was
that there were people supporting my position
before the results of the code or other emperical
results (e.g. the effect that averaging has on
Selective Availability, or that the Taliban
could be dislodged from Kabul from the air, 
without needing a large influx of foreign troops) 
were actually made publicly available. I'm more
used to waiting for the screams of protest,
waiting for the poor logic, waiting for the
opportunity to expose the poor logic, waiting 
for the abuse, waiting for the emperical evidence,
waiting in vain for the mumbled apologies, then
waiting for the inevitable moving of goalposts.

People keep telling me that the repeated
occurrences are a sign that this must be
something that I am doing wrong, but they
persistently fail to point to the step in that
sequence that was in any way my fault.

Reminds me of this woman:

which someone had photoshopped against one
of those Greek/Roman ruins "oh no, they've
destroyed my acropolis". (can't find the
real thing).

BFN.  Paul.
