Ah little gnome does it piss you off when people accuse you of all sorts of things then refuse to substantiate their claims? Well join the club the likes Shaw, Musktwat and Jim Carroll do it all the time to the likes of Keith, Akenaton and myself.

As the self appointed destroyers of discussion on this forum they have been responsible for lost threads where many of the examples have been deleted or lost.

One that I do recall had something to do with whether or not one of the 1930 - 1969 "Revisionists" work should be regarded as being representative of the history of the period backed up by fact. The "historian" in question was the ex-Tory Cabinet Minister Alan Clark and his book was entitled "Donkeys" a work that even Clark's own tutor at Oxford rubbished. A rather long and impressive list of historians who were/are acknowledged experts on the period also gave the work scathing peer reviews along with their reasons - now rather than discuss that, you ignored what they were saying entirely then conducted a full scale "state ball" dancing on the head of a pin about adjectives used to disparage the work and whether or not someone got them the right way round.
