I threw out the “technical writer” suggestion only as an example that there are indeed cases where one can claim to have been “involved” in various developments when the actual involvement was only superficial. In the case of Jim1, I find even this explanation vanishingly improbable because of the wide variety of claimed activities across entirely different departments, their timings, and the fact that some were in no way technical at all but purely organizational. A genius polymath, indeed! The competing theory that we have another trolling bullshitter is close to 100% probability, IMO. This might be a reincarnation of **SamuelA** for all we know.

I’m still intrigued by the picture Jim1 provided in his profile of him among the sheep. He appears to be looking at a couple of them with an intensity that suggests someone soliciting a partner for a session of carnal intimacy, and I have the impression that the sheep are looking back at him with a considerable amount of nervous anxiety. Though with sheep, it’s hard to tell.

You can be a retired systems engineer and strategic planner who mostly did work for the US federal government in the last 20 years, but also critical global systems for other national and corporate interests. You can write contingency plans for the Department of Justice after 9/11, write the first draft of a airborne collision avoidance system required by the Federal Aviation Administration for all commercial aircraft in US airspace You can help re-organize the Internal Revenue Service into a “kinder and gentler” agency, implement the Department of Defense system for distributing secure digital assets to all US and allied agencies around the world, do strategic planning for federal law enforcement communications that lead to a 2011 Presidential Initiative, and a few other things…

But you fuck one sheep…

The whole overblown BIO plus the characterization of those who argue with Jim1 as some form of Trumpers, aaaand the refusal to provide any sort of even vaguely confirmable evidence strikes me as just too on the nose. Especially since they also communicate in complete sentences and jumped in, with their first post with presumably accurate information on the bridge collapse. As if they knew how this place worked and were very familiar with it…

And for some reason just couldn’t stay away. Feel super trocky to me.

Are we supposed to be impressed by this? Why would you post your resume on a message board? Maybe he has us confused with a head-hunting service?

In the mistaken belief that it will substitute for citations.

Assume Jim1 did do all of those things-how would someone even prove it?
