Take it and welcome, and may the gorge be buoyant within your listeners–but can we make it a “ma’am?” kthx! 
**WE **- you know what this is like? One of those cartoons where the bulldog latches on to the leg of Bugs Bunny, only to have Bugs step back and reveal that he made up a pipe or a 2x4 or something to look like his leg - but the dog can’t tell the difference and won’t let go. In the cartoon, I seem to remember that Bugs walked the fake leg, dog still attached, over to a cliff or something and startled the dog into letting go, who then fell off the cliff. Is that an option, WE??
By the way, nice summary of the situation in post #60, Vinyl Turnip…
Or I shall taunt you a second time!
Did you first hear it as a “pick-up” line? Did it work? In the interests of science, you understand…
Loath as I am to defend him, I’ll pick this nit. What he did arguably wasn’t misquoting you, since the dependent clause “that everything I have cited has been refuted” wasn’t marked by punctuation or VB code as a quote. Rather, it was dishonestly paraphrasing you. Claiming he misquoted you is technically inaccurate, therefore–although in terms of debating techniques, it was morally equivalent.
He’s still a dishonest astroturfer, near as I can tell, with a bizarre idea of the machinations of science, and crazy ideas about how to win an argument (viz. this thread, in which he thinks he’s winning a victory by pointing out that he paraphrased you dishonestly instead of misquoting you dishonestly).

Why, yes it did, as a matter of fact! We’re having wild monkey sex as we speak, right here in the thread. I’m hoping it will give BrazilNut something else to focus on, see if he can break that mental doglock he’s in.

“I wish I had said that!”
“You won’t, Oscar, you won’t.”
Well, if his pants are on fire, that’s clearly one factor that contributes to anthropogenic global warming.
Thanks, you keep cracking me up. I’m beginning to feel a little sorry though now. All this time I thought Brazil was a smart and savvy Internet monster but he really might be spouting his stupidity and spreading his ignorance simply out of persistent and bullheaded ignorance and stupidity. I might well have been wrong about him all along and **Jshore **deserves even more praise for spending the time fighting ignorance. I haven’t had the patience.
That wasn’t a quote of you. It contained no quotation marks; did not use the quote feature; and contained no other indication that it represented your exact words.
I don’t understand how anyone could honestly claim it was a quote. But the explanation is simple – you are a liar and thus it is easy for you to claim that a non-quote is actually a quote.
ETA: Oh, and by the way, if you feel it wasn’t fair paraphrase, please feel free to insert the qualifier about supporting my position in it. My original point stands, liar-boy.
Two things? I’ll bet theres hundreds…
Ah but you see first I called him a liar and when I used a nearly equivalent word he seized hold of that instead 14 months later. I refuse to play by his petty rules, especially on a time delay. He is arguing a weak semantic argument as that is all he has. At that he failed to do it anywhere near as well as you.
Perhaps you should have pitted me. I see on preview he is still at it.
Look, he’s talking to no one now!
'luci, do I owe you one ofthese for that comment?
I, in fact, have a loaf of banana bread on my desk right now! I will gladly share with dopers in my general area.
Trying to keep it simple, so’s not to twaddle his turnip unduly…
Banana bread? I’ll swap a slice for a couple of cashew butter chocolate chip cookies!
I see no pile of kitties in my immediate vincinity. 
I made a quite tasty loaf of pumpkin bread around Halloween, as well as a great pumpkin pie.
One of my favorite variations on banana bread is to replace some of the oil with a big dollop of peanut butter.
All this talk of baking…I could really go for some pan de huevo right now.

Or pie.
But it seems **B84 **took it.
