[ExI] Meta: A request for clarification

[John Clark]

Gordon Swobe is correct when he says "I have no conversation with him", for months he has refused to talk not only with me but with anybody who asks hard questions about his very naive theories that he can't answer; but that hasn't stopped Swobe from posting an astonishing amount of verbiage in that time. Since I cannot talk to him I was forced to talk about him, or at least his ideas.

But now things have changed, despite Max's two week moratorium the man seems determined to keep the good old Swobe gibberish engine going at full throttle. So my question to Max is, does the moratorium apply to everyone except Swobe and must his illogical posts now go unchallenged? 

I have one more thing to say, it's not a complaint it's just an observation; If I had called a fellow poster "nasty" and "obnoxious" and "deplorable" when I was unable to counter an argument they had made and if I had then said "He talks to himself there like he has some sort of mental illness" howls of protests against me would have been made, protests full of a rather pompous Latin phrase for name calling. Again let me emphasize that I'm not complaining, I'm a big boy and have been called worse, but it would be nice if I were allowed to defend myself.
