Hello Earl,

 EC> You posted it in the Debate echo. I returned it here.
 EC> Debate Echo msg 1620 on Docsplace, Sept 3, 2013.

 EC> You are talking about a post that appeared in your echo on
 EC> 9/3/2013, at 11:24 AM.  I posted it in THIS echo on
 EC> 9/2/2013, at 7:23 PM (#4997).

 EC> Which leads to a somewhat obvious question: how dumb ARE
 EC> you?

 EC> How did it wind up in the Debate echo?

EC>YOUR explanation seems to be that I posted the message in my echo
EC>via the Prism BBS at 11:24 AM on September 3, 2013.

So you are blaming Janis Kracht's BBS for this mess?

EC>And then I patiently waited until Jan. 1, 2098, at exactly zero
EC>o'clock, to repost the same thing in your echo via the Prism BBS.

Now I get it.  Janis Kracht's BBS is a Time Machine.
And Earl Croasmun is a Time Traveller.

EC>If that is true,

Say wha'?  The Earl Croasmun of the year 2098 is not the same
Earl Croasmun of the year 2013?

Either something is true, or something is not true.  It cannot
be both.  So please make up your mind.  Which Earl Croasmun are
you talking about?  Is it two different Earl Croasmuns, or is
it one and the same Earl Croasmun?

EC>you aren't going to READ IT for another 85 years!

Well, it is good to know Bob K. will still be around 85 years
from now.  Not sure if I want to live that long, though.

EC>And yet you seem certain that you will still be the moderator
EC>of that echo in the year 2098!

Only a time traveller would know.  So please.  You tell me.

EC>Indirectly, you are answering my question.  You aren't coming right
EC>out and SAYING how dumb you are, but you are demonstrating it.

Bob K. has made no claim to have built the time machine.  As such,
I doubt he knows how to use it.  Or even where to find it.
