I thought Duffy has some previous limited PL experience with Blackburn. Happy to be shot down on this though!

Although I can see we are singing from the same hymn sheet regards flat-earthers, I think I'm going to have to agree to disagree with you on your post here. We live in a 3D world where understanding and applying Newton's Laws and Cartesian maths work just fine. We already know that it's not...

Or in other words and seeing as we are talking about Descartes: "the illuminati think therefore I am."

Sorry to piss further onto your chips but I disagree with this statement too and regard it as a little reckless. I'm with you completely that the more esoteric side to physics requires far more complex science especially at the quantum level but I do remember it being drummed into me that for...

If they haven't developed their brains sufficiently to see things from a different perspective per your 2nd sentence then how can that last sentence be true about them seeing it from Teddy's non-Cartesian perspective? Edit - admittedly it's a long time since I studied maths but I'm pretty...

My ring tone is Deep Purple. I blame Albion Kebabs.

Ah cheers. Even without that superfluous 'with' it's still a very clunky way to describe it. I prefer yours, much pithier.

"...he was a player struggling to elude with the inevitable march of time." Any ideas what that means?

You're deflecting by answering questions with irrelevant questions. We've been here before. Life is too short and my bed is calling.

Your arguments are all over the place. No-one has said that flat earthers are a threat to humanity, no-one is saying that they are to be mocked exclusively, no-one is scapegoating them for anything (do you understand the meaning of the word scapegoat because it looks very likely that you...

Bugger me. Is that an away goal?

People shouldn't be slated for disbelieving something that is demonstrably provable and objective because lots of other people believe something that is completely subjective? That there is a textbook straw man argument.

I'm with you completely on A Brief History of Seven Killings. Almost unreadable and a blatant rip-off of the far superior City of God, just set in Jamaica rather than Rio. You've convinced me to visit my local library but unfortunately it doesn't help much with my annual Man Booker Prize...

Only if you think of reading as a way to fill in spare time.

I'm working my way steadily through the Man Booker Int'l longlist with varied results. It's certainly not a vintage year from what I've read so far. Jenny Espenbeck - 'Go, Went, Gone' Another 'refugees in Europe' story. I suspect that this will be a recurring theme in the prize longlists. I...
