      I've been curious, is he CSS?

      Opacity, the new Transparency.

        No, CSS is one Joshua Henize and Ilion is Troy Haley. However, both are from Ohio.

        You measure democracy by the freedom it gives its dissidents, not the freedom it gives its assimilated conformists.

            I think that was Oakman before he retreated to SB 1.0. Ilion has publicly bragged he's from a long line of TPT. CSS is from around Dayton and is a perfect example of the old addage about shirt sleeves to shirt sleeves in three generations.

              I heard that before, but here in UK it is 'Clogs to Clogs' in three generations.

                :laugh: You did this minor cyber-stalking because you can't get enough of me. I guess that you forgot that I had told DryRot that even knowing my address wouldn't help him find my house should he decide to uncyber his cyber-stalking. My address is virtual, there is no street, it's not on any map, there is no street-view to google.

                  No one in my family has ever lived in a trailer. Even in college, when I needed to find a new place to live and (for a while) all I had found was a trailer, I turned it down and waited for something else to turn up. Still, it’s nice to see you “caring, generous” “liberal” folk show your true colors and openly display the scorn you have for poor folk simply because they're poor. The northern side of my family were prosperous farmers (and doctors) and small businessmen. The southern side of my family were a combination of share-croppers and laborers and moderately prosperous farmers (and some still held extensive lands) ... and before that, before the Civil War, they were doctors and lawyers and plantation owners.

                      I have a mother *and* a father ... which is no doubt a novel concept around here ... thus, there are two sides to my family. My mother's mother's people were Yankee transplants to Illinois and her father's people were Carolina transplants to Indiana ... and I was born a sixth-generation Hoosier (of course, if one counts the Indian side of that, it's even more generations within what is now Indiana). My father's people had always been Southerners. edit: I don't know for a fact, but I suspect that this fellow[^] is a cousin. He was born in the same general area as many of my father's people, he lived for a while in Missouri (and, as I understand it, most of his relatives stayed there when he headed West), and when my father lived in Missouri he knew of Haleys and Haileys who were his own relatives.

                          And the maternal side of my family is Northern and the paternal is Southern. But I didn't say 'paternal' and 'maternal' because I was talking about where they were from, not how I am related to them. The fool who called me "TPT" was making reference to the poverty of my immediate Southern relatives, and specifically the circumstances in which my father was raised.

                            There's a difference between living in a trailer, and being trailer trash. It's pretty easy to see too, but I love how you in your conservative brilliance refused to associate yourself with those of the trailer caste. They aren't half bad, at least no worse than the housing plans with even less yard space than a damn trailer(Not kidding, I've done the math more than once to annoy a few people I grew up with).

                              You poor and pathetic thing, *I* did not call the folk who live in trailers trash (*). I simply stated that no one in my family has ever lived in one. (*) One of my best friends from college lived in one for a while after she got married, and I visited them several times before they moved out west. -- Does that mean I can do the "liberal" "some of my best friends ..." thingie?

                                Not the point I was aiming at. He referred to you as trailer park trash. And frankly, trash is trash. Trailer or not. Just with a trailer there seems to be this added bit of them sitting on their front lawn all day, so they're more visible. But you explicitly avoided living in a trailer when looking for a place to live, rather than living there. Which amused me as you try to mark yourself as a person who thinks rather than buying into what you're told.

                                  Silly person, I grew up in houses (and, for the most part, relatively large houses), not in tiny little boxes with paper-thin walls. The trailer was no where near a trailer park, it was out in the country.

                                    Is there a way to stop you? Other than Armed Response, of course?

                                      Of course not. However, I have too much self-respect to behave/talk/think like a "liberal."

                                        No, from your current posts, you are far too busy behaving/talking/thinking like a discrimitatory elitist.

                                          Silly person, I grew up in houses (and, for the most part, relatively large houses), not in tiny little boxes with paper-thin walls. The trailer was no where near a trailer park, it was out in the country.

                                          So it is O.K. for you, a self-styled "conservative", to "openly display the scorn you have for poor folk simply because they're poor."
