@rjpeters70:
I’ve got good answers for all these (to begin with, lots of books are peer reviewed. I know. I’ve both written and reviewed academic treatments that are published as books by individual authors or co-authors). But I’m going to wait to respond until you defend your map, given the laughable omissions and insertions that I noted earlier.
Hey, I know you’re new here so I’m going to cut you some slack. But there are hundreds of people that use these boards from many different countries and backgrounds and certainly opinions.
We share, we suggest, we agree or disagree with one another. We argue, we present evidence, we present anecdotes, we present rhetoricals and some of us do this quite often. If you read some of the past posts you will notice that some people have very very strong opinions and can be quite animated in their posts (as animated as the board will allow).
But what we strive for, (and what the moderators try and enforce) is that we remain respectful despite our differences. So a word to the wise: if you plan to share your ideas and opinions on these forums, and plan to be listened to and respected, try to avoid childish name-calling and ad hominem attacks. You’ll find you will get along better with everyone in the long run.
Cheers.
