Peoples Republic of Berkeley at it again
« Reply #15 on: October 22, 2002, 01:24:21 AM »
I've got an idea! Instead of alla these poor lemmings shelling out thousands of dollars for a Berkley education....

Let 'em come to this BBS instead! Just $14.95 a friggen month!

We know what's what, huh? I mean... if ya wan't the *real* dope on how the whole thing works, we've got all the answers.



The AH BBS scholars have it goin' ON!

Pfft... where do these Berkley people get the cajones to question anything?! You'd think they were a damn University or something...Ha!... Ah well, they'll learn...

er wait...

The thread is about retarded political comments but you have to thrown in that berkley has great phisics and chemistry (and apparently a decent economics dept) as if its relevant.

Tell me once again.. what does that do to qualify the above group's findings?

I've met quite a few PhD's that were glad to be from Berkley... well away from Berkley.

It is a joke as far as anything political goes.  Deep down.. you must know that.

This thread is not about retarded political comments, the title of the thread is  "Peoples Republic of Berkeley at it again".
I responded to the inane attacks on Berkeley by Ripsnort, Grunherz and yourself. All of you acting like small minded children chanting "Berkeley bad, Berkeley bad, Berkeley bad".

Well wake up and smell the anecdotal evidence. "I know some PhD's and they all agree with me."

Next time I'll check with you DJ, just to confirm the subject of the thread before I respond to imbecilic rants about a minor panel's stupid remarks, that happen to be on the grounds of one of the finest Universities in the Country.

LOL!

OK..

I wonder if there's a difference between thought and rhetoric.

Maybe if the "Berkley" view was anything other than the same rhetoric it has been for the last 30+ years this would matter.  But it is not.  Anyone wonder why Berkley is being cited here?  I'm pretty sure there are numerous other college committees that had similar meetings with similar results... why publish an article on Berkley's findings?  Oh yea... because they are FAMOUS for that kind of crap.

I'm sure everything is clearly evaluated and the think tank weighs all of the options right before coming out and saying the exact same thing over and over again.

Maybe we should use this sort of thing as a crime solving method.  Forget investigations or questioning people.  We’ll just have a bunch of college guys sit around and speculate, then quote them like it means something.  :rolleyes:

The ridicule has nothing to do with Berkley academic credentials.  

 It has a lot to do with people who are sitting around BS'n, several thousand miles from the crime scene.  not likely 'in the loop' as far as being provided access to evidence that has been collected, and  guessing what the think might have happened. then being quoted as if they are some kind of source of credible info.

"Ian Buchanan Harry Bhaskara (left), an Indonesian journalist and visiting scholar at UC Berkeley, speaks about the recent bombing in Indonesia. "

"Five academics and journalists came to UC Berkeley and examined a number of theories on the source of the explosion. "

So the US involvemnet was just ONE theory.

Cripes, they were just sitting around discussing US involvement as one possible THEORY.

Can anyone here prove that the US wasn't involved?  At least one of them said that "The most important thing is to wait for the investigation." .

Um thrawn...

Technically EVERY nation COULD be responsible.  I mean.. can you prove that each and every one WASN'T responsible?

Great logic there.

Seems to me the real issue here is that the question (US involvement) was raised at all. Now isn't it sad in this FREE country of ours that an institution who's mandate is to produce THINKERS is derided for asking a difficult and possibly abstract question?

BTW Thrawn...

This coming out of a Berkley "think tank" is about equal to GB instantly blaming the Axis of Evil for it.

The odd thing is... everyone posting in threads like this seems to think one was right for what they said and the other was wrong.

Very strange.

Actually... very typical.

Careful with that mirror, Deja, a liberal doesn't see its own reflection much like that of the Vampire. ;)

False? Um... don't think I said "false".

Stupid is a better description.

Everyone is guilty until proven innocent.  Sorry... that's stupid.

Neither does a conservative.  That's part of the problem.
