tr>> Over in Klahn's echo he states in a message to you (message
tr>> #7018) that I and some others accepted his formula:

tr>> "Oh, and notice, Ross Cassell, Tim Richardson, Earl
tr>> Croasmun, as well as Frank Scheidt accepted my formula."
tr>> ......Klahn

tr>> Klahn is a baldfaced liar. I did no such thing.

BK>>AAMOF, you did.

 TR> As a matter of fact....I did *not*.

 TR> What I did was......in answer to ____ Sauer's:

 TR> "I'm afraid I'm really lousy at math, what does this mean?"
 TR> ____ Sauer

 TR> I replied:

 TR> "(F)orce =(M)ass times (V)elocity squared." ........Tim
 TR> Richardson

 Yep. You did not question the formula, just explained the terms.

BK>>In the first msg you explain the formula, with not one word of
BK>>doubt about it.

 TR> I *explain* nothing. I simply tell ____ what the `terms'
 TR> *F*, *M*, *V* stand for, and the fact that the (M)ass is

 Yes, you did that without question.

 ...

 TR> Telling ____ what the terms mean, and how to work the
 TR> formula is a far cry from `explaining' the formula.

 Since it's is the most basic algebra, defining the terms
 explains the formula to anyone who has studied any algebra. It
 never occured to me that Ross did not understand basic algebra.

 TR> It was *explained* by Earl......whoalso *explained* why
 TR> your formula was wrong, period.

 No, that was Jim H. who said it was wrong. No one else
 questioned the formula. Not even you.

BK>>In the second msg you say the formula is for a body moving at a
BK>>constant velocity, which is exactly what I intended it for.

 TR> I didn't *say* it was........I *asked* Earl if such was the
 TR> case, and he put me straight on it.

 No, that was Jim H also. And you did not question the formula
 itself, just the application.

BK>>IOW, you accepted it without question. Which makes your comment
BK>>about a bald faced what?

 TR> I accepted nothing of *yours* without question. You are a
 TR> baldfaced liar.

 Anyone who reads what you wrote can see you accepted the formula
 itself without guestion, you just weren't sure how it was
 applied.

 You pile your embarrassment on more embarrassment.
