And he did so. That's why he mentioned the figures might not be accurate, but the thought behind it is. A nuclear exchange could devastate the earth via a nuclear winter. What total yield that exchange has to have is unknown, but Sarli thought the 100MT figure was a good lower limit.WolfRitter wrote:It's his job to doublecheck his sources and he is held responsible for not doing so.
You tried to pass this off as Sarli saying that a 100MT could kill all life on earth (and you are still doing it later in your very latest reply, see what i quoted below this). That is what's known as a Strawman, dear Schatten. You substitue someone's argument for something you're better equipped to refute.
What's this got to do with anything? Who's been talking about the total destruction of humanity? Oh wait, another quaint strawman, isn't it?Even if we were to hit every square kilometer with 100 MT devices it does not assure humanities destruction, there were a number of bunkers built for just such an event.
You're digging yourself deeper with every reply. If you can't adress what i say without continously strawmanning, then you are proving that you can't actually adress my point.
Do i even need to respond anymore? I believe you yourself are proving me right without any help from me at all. I can understand the other points, or at least why you argue them, you're trying to put on a show for others. But in this case it doesn't even work, because most of the people you are putting this show on for know what i just said is right.There they are again, I'm starting to think you're a computer program.
And do i agrue for trek in a vs debate, Schatten? Did you see that part about checking a thread that doesn't involve Star Wars but does involve Trek? Did you bother to read what i wrote before posting?Not so, trekkie is a name for fans of Trek who argue from that side in the Vs Debate.
And no, dear Schatten, that definition of a Trekkie exists only in your head. Here, let me prove it for you:
Wiki wrote:Trekkie (or Trekker) is a term used to describe a fan of all or part of the Star Trek fictional universe.[1]
"Trekkie", originally intended only to describe enthusiasts of Star Trek, has sometimes been used to refer to any obsessed fan.[2]
But hey, if all Trekkie really means is that someone argues for Trek in a debate, then the title in itself is really meaningless. Also, what you just said would inevitably lead to the conclusion that whoever isn't a Trekkie is dishonest. Why? Because everyone has to debate for trek at some point, even if you dislike it. If you always debate against it, even in the absurdest of cases and when you are proven wrong in a black and white way, you are dishonest.Concise Oxford Dictionary: Encyclopedia II wrote: Trekkie - The word Trekkie
The term Trekkie is sometimes considered derogatory, perhaps because of a perceived parallel to the term groupie. Some Star Trek enthusiasts prefer the term Trekker, while some others hold the latter term to be stupid or pretentious, and, for that reason, self-identify as Trekkies. Some Trekkies even say that a Trekker is a Trekkie who is embarrassed for being Trekkie. On the other hand, Trekker is sometimes used as a term for the kind of Star Tre ...
You said you were honest right? Welcome to the fold, fellow Trekkie.
You think i'd dig through several month/year old threads just to find it? You're not important enough Schatten. What matters to me is what happens between you and me specifically. You might want to put on a show for whoever is watching, but that doesn't bother me. All that matters is that you know i'm right and that it irks you endlessly.I notice you don't have a link.
Of course, this wasn't your only fumble on the intelligence front. I thought i'd just mention that, lest we forget what the starting point of this little deviation was.
You are an impolite person(s)? Problems with multiple personalities as well, i take it?You act like I should care, I'm an decidedly impolite person(s) and freely admit it,
That's the point which apprently you didn't get. You are impolite on the net. Try doing that in real life and see what happens. Now realize the reason for why you aren't like that in real life. Realize the reason for why something like this could never work in real life.why don't you look at the SDN Thread where Invictus Chicken declared to the whole board he joined the Catholic Church,
