I'm sorry but I'm afraid I'm confused. I'm also sorry if I failed to react as much as I should to some idiosyncrasies re. the way you express yourself. I did notice previously that you seemed to be disagreeing with me and I ignored it and was right to do so because you were disagreeing with someone else. But it very much seemed to me as if you were disagreeing with the simple calculation. I apologise if I was mistaken. I have found however, that the "experts" seem to have failed to account for the lower density of ice and their calculations seem to be 10% high. I wondered about it yesterday but assumed that maybe compressibility and specific density cancel out but they don't. So the figures given for sea level rise actually are too high.

You conveniently discovered it less than an hour after I posted about it...

I don't read your posts. It's just a fluke I read this. I was thinking about it yesterday but assumed the experts were right and that compressibility (which they also didn't mention) cancelled out specific density discrepancies. I was tired and decided to check that today.

I've been busy today buying Christmas alcohol (31 assorted bottles) on an online auction for about 30% of its value. I got 6 bottles of Saki, which I like but no whisky which was going for high prices. One bottle of whisky went for £1500.

Anyway I only just got around to checking the figures. I never read all the posts here. I thought I'd told you that already but relative density is something that anyone who understands physics would naturally be aware of. I was talking to my son on the phone today because he wanted me to bid for a bottle of whisky. He's the one who learned physics up to degree level in the first term of his physics PhD after never learning it at school. It runs in the family because it was my favourite subject at school and of course I passed all the exams. happy.png

Nobody is going to believe you don't read my posts. "It's a fluke I read this"...lol.

Something people might buy is this...invariably when you start talking about marbles, auctions, walking 11 miles, sports, etc. it's because you are trying to deflect attention away from something wink.png.

I think you're possibly more ridiculous than anyone else posting here. I do mean anyone because you take yourself so seriously, like Sir Keir Starmer and Michael Jackson. Am I supposed to be deflecting attention from my good looks, my musical ability, creativity, strong and noble physique? Or is it from my extreme modesty?

Michael Jackson would be a closer match for you, I'd say. Always trying to mentor teens and whatnot...

(Your attempts to make under-the-radar personal attacks in a thread where no personal attacks are allowed are also noted and are the cause of merriment and laughter to all, I would guess.)

You know what they say about people with that kind of thing on their minds? I reported it and I invite others to report it if they find it offensive. I'll also be bringing it to the attention of the staff member I'm occasionally in contact with.

If you find it offensive being compared to Michael Jackson, one wonders why you did it first...

If "strictly" holds, I suppose both of us might blocked by the OP, which is hunky dory with me.

By all means, have your "friend" on staff contact me. I've got plenty to say to them regarding your continued threats of moderator intervention on your behalf, a club you have wielded against several posters now in recent months.

Admitted you are making under-the-radar personal attacks. This is your one and only warning.

As for Optimissed, he has done nothing wrong as of right now, so you are wrong on that point.

Optimissed's post that initiated the exchange is the first attack. Don't become a hypocrite. Note how I wouldn't even have a springboard for my joke if he did not make Michael Jackson the subject. There's no way to "strictly" call "I think you're possibly more ridiculous than anyone else posting here." anything but an attack, either, so that's two for one.

I don't particularly want to comment here with that person dominating the posts. However, I've landed myself right in the middle of a LOT of work and probably won't be able to comment for maybe a week, so thanks very much for your input, which is appreciated. This morning, when I realised I've made some arrangements which give myself a lot to do, I thought I should let you know that it isn't so much a matter of won't post but can't post for the near future. Thanks once again and all the best for now.

Bumping this because I've noticed that the "following" ticket now seems to work.

Anyways, you know the drill. Make a point, have the trolls come to you like flies.

I had warned you about the trolls…got the thread deleted.

I’d assume it was the trolls, they decided to go crazy.

Can’t agree about how you won but you are right about how your thread turned into a dumpster fire.
