Medical Forum / General / Vision / July 2009A warning to newcomers to this newsgroup about the laymen Otis
Every time you see a posting made by the laymen Otis keep in mind he is hurting people, not helping. He is trying to sell you a useless book about how to avoid myopia even if it isn't there and not ever shall be. He (Otis), never ever has giving straight and direct answers on very simple questions asked by the real eyecare professionals in this newsgroup. He is definitely a quackery person. Several times you see new posting from this horrible man because he has to if a thread becomes to hot under his feet (pardon me for this Dutch language) He never show real scientifically reports, the only thing he produce is old stuff most time full of not controllable anecdotes. Jan (normally Dutch spoken) Men live by their routines; and when these are called into question, they lose all power of normal judgment. They will listen to nothing save the echo of their own voices; all else becomes dangerous thoughts. - Harold Laski ============== > Every time you see a posting made by the laymen Otis keep in mind he is > hurting people, not helping.

Your arguments have to stand on their own merits. But they don't. You're a liar and an idiot ... no matter who you quote, and how often.

Then again, you could realize that often when Otis quotes someone, the arguments apply more to him than to those he doesn't agree with. Otis may think that what Laski says applies to others, but it applies much more to him.

Attack includes such mild forms as ridicule, and escape includes merely putting it out of mind." W. I. Beveridge New ideas are always criticized - not because an idea lacks merit, but because it might turn out to be workable, which would threaten the reputations of many people whose opinions conflict with it.
