Subject: RE: BS: Christmas Truce (1914)
I've worked it out Jim.

The more you write, the longer he trawls for dissenting views to cut and paste. Hence his quietness for a few posts.

I have to admit, I do say things that are backed up but I purposely say them in a way to have him show his true colours. My bad, but without exploring where Keith is coming from, his more dubious claims might be taken at face value and without challenge, truth gets lost in the fog.

I was delighted to see the Xmas sniper redeployment mentioned in the "box" in the article in The Week, as the non subscriber web version misses out the explanation box. There is another example regarding healthcare statistics, where reports are written ahead of verified data but such data is always available for research (Cochrane etc). Keith loves to wave "definitive" stories and reports as meaning " end of discussion. ". Thick bugger hasn't worked out yet that they are there to provoke debate, not stifle it.
