Answer to Benny - Re IP Addresses - Multiple Users...

[Burbert]

Wilagro, It's hard to keep up to the duds here on angriville. They are true legends in their own minds. They can tell that all CWB supporters are drunks, for example, from their postings, what fools. They are trying to take credit for the high barley prices right now. Another joke! Master marketers, right (chislers and lackeys) are what they really are. Farmers destroying their own marketing system, truly insane. **Interest rates are staring to climb boys, now we'll see who the real men are in the age world** Let the whinning and sniveling begin!!!!!!!!!!!

Burbert,

You said:

Question, what is your investment in the grain industry? Can you see any other force than competition keeping our cost of doing business, low enough to be competitive and profitable, in the long term on a global scale?

If this was golf, I would call your comment a pre-shot whine. Going into your golf bag to pick out a club on the tee box and you have already written a 9 on your score card. Your assumption is everyone else has done the same.

You know something. Everyone looks down the same fairway. Some can knock the ball out 250 yards and have it in the middle of the fairway/on the short grass. Easy iron onto green. 2 puts (maybe 1) and you have a par or if lucky a birdie.

Farming is the same (maybe too theoretical as government employee). Skills as a manager. Patience. Discipline. Perhaps a little luck.

The other similarity is that both are individual games where you (hopefully) are continuously improving your play/management of your business.

I should note my own hypocracy in making the above statements. The comment is some have 30 years experience. Others have one years experience 30 times. I fit in the latter category but don't make my living off golf/play because I enjoy being with friends outdoors.

My question is why would Benny make up some story about how he was able to tell that multiple users where all the same person logging in from the same IP address? He's gotta be smart enough to know that if he's lying about it somebody is gonna call him on it and make him look like an idiot.

It seems to be a common tacticslag used on the left wing blogs. I have seen it done many times outside of Agri-ville.

Jay-mo,

Kind of like Benny saying the CWB gets us a premium for our grain... hard to actually prove one way or another!

Until Goofis Malsters one day... say we owe them over $50M because someone decided to brake up their little tea party with the CWB!

Discount sales... created the loss! If growers had actually offered to sell the barley at the prices the CWB sold for... there would be no loss to complain about!

How contorted... that could someone would (the CWB) sell someone elses property (the grain grower's)... to a third party (the maltster) without permission... then have the third party "buyer" turn around and sue the governemnt for a contract that did not exist in the first place.

ONLY IN CANADA!

You would really wonder how they think they can get away with it...?

I guess my point was made poorly (Since it got pulled off and in my judgement I was within the rules but they are not my rules).

I was trying to learn about what kind of logic went into what I saw as unfounded generalizations. You challenge what an institution does you are anti-institution. You agree with someone on a point you agree with them on another point.

I thought I had seen two members use this kind of logic. I'd like to understand it. So that is why I asked name starts with B and rhymes with Henny and name starts with w and rhymes with vilagro to explain it.

dooo dee dooo.

Politically correct doesn't make any sense. Anything that is political can't be correct now can it?

[parsley]

doo dee doo dee doo dee dee da da


At least get the tune right.

Burbert: I've been called a drunk before, but that was fifty years ago. I only use booze now for "medicinal" purposes.

The "gang" here still like to jump on CWB supporters "en masse" but they are SO cheerful now that the big bad CWB is being tamed and soon they will be rich, rich, rich beyond their greatest expectations.
