In fairness to others, I have to re-think my position.

So new rules. For every loving Ryan Archer post, which means 1 day of my not posting AND skipping pages, I want to see at least 4 non-RA posts. So that's a good ratio and it means that I won't miss that many pages.

But seriously, unlike my reading every page religiously, if this RA bullshit continues, even with the above ratio, it just means a lot of skipped pages containing stuff directed at me; and which will never get replies.

ps. E.L.E. in-bound

imagining all the poor goons who will never get a reply from you thanks to others heartlessness is making my eyes piss tears

If you actually read the article, you'd know that the mag that original printed it, issued a retraction as a result of them speaking to people who were there and who said it never happened.

So yeah, that's totally how that works. This is the part where you pay close attention: I never said that I had proven it. Here is what I said. Read it. This time, slowly.

Derek - solid question that shouldn't compromise anyone. Is the E.L.E. a separate and distinct event from the other poo poo, like the PTU going into maintenance mode? Meaning, if the E.L.E. had not occurred, the PTU was still going into maintenance mode, and SC was still hosed. It's just that this big mystery event makes the rest of the poo poo a moot point. Would you say that's accurate?

If you're taking the comment (and term) literally, and thinking it has anything to do with FISA, congrats, you're an idiot.
I do not however I'm asking what in their terms and conditions can remotely be considered a warrant canary. The phrase and usage came about specifically because of section 215 on the patriot act. Just using the phrase half-handedly is stupid and improper unless you can point to a clause that actually would fit.

First, my apologies for calling you an idiot. It's one of those days and I should have looked at who I was responding to because it appeared to be SillyBones or one of the RSI/CIG related alt accounts I've started keeping track of and investigating.

That said, my comment that Ben should look up Warrant Canary had nothing to do with FISA, The Patriot Act or anything of the sort.

I was using it in context of "I know something that you don't, but I can't talk about it". There is NO other legal context for it; and a gag order won't apply since there is no originating lawsuit.

My comment has to do with the concept of NOT being able to say ANYTHING about an on-going events/op/action. That being the position THEY are in. I am in the same boat. And I said this (re: E.L.E) even BEFORE the AtV aired and everyone started speculating on the demeanor, body language etc of all three of them on camera.

It was also what prompted my message to Erin.

For those of you who have no clue what I'm talking about : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Warrant_canary
