as a clinical psychologist
you should realize what really was going on in her mind.


You misunderstand the job of a clinical psychologist.

BTW, I am not one now, though I trained.


Excuses are the realm of clinical psychologists


perhaps. But I prefer excuses to rant and invective.

You enjoy the plaudits of idiots?

I enjoy a rational and honest conversation with many kinds of people and made it a habit here on IHub to seek out people with views I do not share.

My only rule here is no ad hominem attacks. Please respect that.

Ola, I started reading the commentary on Yates, in part, to consider different points of view. I didn't accomplish my purpose because your arrogance ... a trait that often consorts with stupidity ... was too distracting. It seemed to me that one or two of the points you were trying to make might have merit, but your method of making them was so offensive that I found myself unable to consider them rationally.

I don't think you'll hear what I'm saying ... much less care ... and that's a shame.

There ARE views that differ from yours. Some of them are even better. They will not go away just because you raise your voice.

I apologize to all for this post.
