    Thanks for explaining the analogy to me. My mind is weak, after all. Do you not notice that when people try to discuss things with you, you fail to respond to questions and then resort to insults ? Doesn't that make you question yourself, just a little ?

      Not the slightest bit. It makes me question you all and everyone else.

        Relabeling things to what they plainly are not, is another thing that conspiracy nuts tend to do. Why is it that you're scared of logical discussion ? What have you got to lose by explaining why it is that you think Google is evil for causing one specific search to fail ?

        Of course it does. See point #1. If I wanted to insult you, I'd say things like 'of course a loser would want to make themselves feel better than others'. But, it seems you're impervious to any form of discussion.

              You do understand that where you put the quotes makes the difference, right? With your first search it has to be exactly those words in exactly that order. With your second search you have two parameters instead of one.

                  You're only proving my two points. To recap 1 - you're incapable of discussing your crackpot theories. it's beyond all doubt that I can easily use Google to find anti Obama sites. You cannot explain how this fits with your (overall retarded) theory 2 - when called out on how insane your views are by people willing to try to entertain rational discussion, you have nowhere to hide, so you resort to insults, and generally claim that the fact we disagree with the drivel you're buying into, is proof of our incompetence. When surely your general level of success in life ( or otherwise ) compared to those you speak to, is a general indicator that points in the opposite direction to what you'd like.

                      :sigh: Over the weekend I had started to think that maybe he was actually listening to other people and had approached his bank with rationality. Of course, the bank restoring his account and apologising doesn't have to be the truth, does it?

                          Yeah, I was noticing that he seemed to be discussing things somewhat, the trouble is, you back him into a corner, face to face with his delusion, and he's gonna come out fighting.

                          No, but it's possible. Although I don't really see how the bank would have a vested interest in keeping him as a customer.

                                Now I don't generally get involved in this type of crap, and hate to say it but I find much of what CG writes rather "pointless" (no offence - just personal opinion there CG), but in terms of who's got the mind to understand things, the man is head and shoulders above you.... What exact point are you making that he's not getting? Seems to me you're making out that Google censors any anti-Obama pages, he's provided examples of how that's not true. Just because you can't find a specific (and rather long in terms of web searches) string doesn't mean that it's being surpressed you clown!

                                C# has already designed away most of the tedium of C++.
