QUOTE(Ozzie @ Jun 5 2007, 08:13 PM) [snapback]198484[/snapback] I plead ignorance Gregory. Would you enlighten me to the meaning of "Scrutator" please? Lexie Watchbird is correct. Here are a couple of examples of old English usage. "Master Camden, a singular scrutator of antiquities." (1676) "The very disquisitation concerning any one part of the brain, the eye, the nerves, the blood hath preplexed the most exact scrutators." (1593) Oxford English Dictionary |

Hmmmm, Interesting that you, Steffan, would bring John Alfke up. He has some pretty serious claims that could go a long way to bring the credibility of GJ into question, and yet he would never answer my emails. Well, I'll try again and see if he will back up what he is claiming. PB -------------------- Got Peace?

Could be. Who knows. Maybe Gailon did fall behind on rent on not catch up. I don't know. I do know that there were people in London during the 1930s who saw German aircraft aproaching, and cried out warnings. Some of these people were criminals and scoundrels, yet theirs warnings were absolutely sound and saved lives. There have been many people who have been successfully prosecuted in both criminal and civil court who saved people's lives and more through their warnings words and actions. Did Danny ever file for bancruptcy? Did he ever leave his creditors holding the bag? If so, does that mean that he has no crdibility?

I find it quite interesting that Steffan finds this story of John quite credible. I wonder if you, Steffan, find all the things he says about Danny Shelton just as credible?

Steffan,
One of the big differences between Mr. Alfke's allegations and the information on allegations that both Gailon Joy and Bob Pickle have brought forward is that Mr. Alfke has made serious statements that he and others have been financially mistreated by GJ (you can read all the claims and subsequent discussions HERE)but has never backed up his claims with ANY supporting documentation, period. That is not the case with the lion's share of information posted on Save3abn.com. Worth reading are Gregory Matthews' well-reasoned comments on all of the claims that Mr. Alfke had made: http://www.blacksda.com/forums/index.php?s...st&p=188418 Folks, we have been down this tired road before and it lead nowhere. We did not get confirmation about Mr. Alfke's claims because Mr. Alfke never deemed it important enough to do so. GJ, BP, and others addressed the issues at length and, finally, on page 22 of the previous discussion of this man's claims, Clay finally stepped in and said: QUOTE I think there have been enough pages of this exploration.... unless there are new allegations of Mr. Joy being less than credible let's take a break from this one..... Steffan, unless you can bring documented support for Mr. Alfke's claims, I would suggest that you drop the subject. It just makes you appear to be a mud-slinger. -------------------- Got Peace?

I have made this request before both publicly and privately and will make it again. Why do we feel it always necessary to respond to every single thing posters of Steffan's persuasion post? We waste so much valuable time responding when he rarely if ever responds to our requests for very simple facts or agreements on matters. Has anyone forgotten my post quoting Steffan from CF stating that he does not post anonymously? Until Steffan is prepared to even be consistent with his own statement why continue him to manipulate things. Just ignore him until he shows anything he says is of value or has any credibility at all. I am now off my soapbox.... And all the time everyone wastes on him is far more valuable than just 2 cents... nw C"i" -------------------- “I believe in Christianity as I believe that the sun has risen: not only because I see it, but because by it I see everything else.” C.S.
