    Why CTE is silly

    Too bad for you that you didn't see my post as the OFFERING FROM ME that it was. It certainly doesn't DEMAND anything from anyone. It EXPLAINS that ignored points generate the tendency to needle those who do the ignoring. You get yourself SO ANGRY you can't even understand what people are...

    CTE/ PRO ONE with Stan Shuffett

    What childish nonsense. You seem to know nothing about business; and you seem to not clearly understand the consistent ethics of Dr. Dave's site, either: he gives FULL AND ACCURATE attribution for anything used on his site. What you (jokingly) refer to doing would be to NOT acknowledge that it...

    Why CTE is silly

    3kushn, Examples of "it works!" simply do not void serious questions showing that it CANNOT work. If I see you running around pointing your FINGER at people, and saying "POW!," and seeing people FALL whenever you do that.... ....should I just then ACCEPT that, for my entire life, I've...

    CTE/ PRO ONE with Stan Shuffett

    I think what you (and others) are really sick of, Joey, is the continued insistence (especially by me) that challenges to assertions made about CTE actually be ANSWERED. If people have a "right" to publish and make money from CTE, then I'll continue to express my right to CHALLENGE the...

    Why CTE is silly

    Stan, if you think people are AGAINST YOU, you are wrong (from what I can tell--and I can certainly speak for myself). The problem is (and is exemplified by your very post) that you WILL NOT ENGAGE with the sensible CHALLENGES that have been raised. I don't know the details of your 5K...

    Why CTE is silly

    Hi Stan, it's GMT, not PJ. You guys deserve some needling just because you have seemed, for FIFTEEN YEARS, to be UNWILLING to seriously consider and discuss the legitimate and well explained and framed questions and challenges to CTE. "Needling" ain't CRAP (and it's certainly not "unethical")...

    CTE/ PRO ONE with Stan Shuffett

    Oh, it's not an attack, Joey. It's a friendly nudge. I think you're getting WAY too dramatic over this stuff. And it seems like you ALWAYS do. Wouldn't it have been possible (instead of flying off the handle) to try to QUESTION me about WHAT sort of details I might consider putting in a review...

    Why CTE is silly

    We don't have to know. We only have to know that CTE believers BELIEVE they use the SAME SET UP to make the three DIFFERENT shots in Dr. Dave's 3-shot CTE test. We KNOW, with absolute physical certainty, that the 3 shots MUST be hit in three different places to make the ball in each one--if CTE...

    Why CTE is silly

    And isn't it ALWAYS true that the "deluded" NEVER have a sense of humor? The psychology of people has always fascinated me. Underlying the ENTIRE CTE phenomenon is a perceptible (but ABSOLUTELY unspoken) twinkling that SOME part of the minds of the believers KNOW that what they believe in...

    Why CTE is silly

    Not true. It is a CHRONICLE of REAL events, and a real phenomenon in the pool world. The fact is that (and I wish it weren't true) a non-trivial number of people who seem to have "some" significance in the pool world believe in and wish to promote CTE. There's nothing wrong with recording and...

    Why CTE is silly

    I agree with that one! Yeah, and the HILARIOUS thing is that these students seem to actually KEEP THE PROMISE--something utterly UNHEARD OF IN THE HISTORY OF THE WORLD! The only thing I can figure: in the end, most of them just stop using it (or use it only "once in awhile" for a "really...

    CTE/ PRO ONE with Stan Shuffett

    I just wanna know one thing, Joey: Were you in all your school plays as a kid?

    help me settle a bet

    IMDb trivia describes a hand....I don't know if it's the hand you're interested in: "The hand that Mary is holding for her husband Meredith is the 4 and 6 of clubs, 5 of diamonds, 6 and Queen of hearts."

    CTE/ PRO ONE with Stan Shuffett

    Well...is that true? If I buy a movie DVD am I prohibited from telling people...."who committed the murder?" or if the "boy and girl got together in the end?" Reviews of all sorts of products seem to give detailed information. And besides that, does anyone REALLY BELIEVE that a buyer who liked...

    Why CTE is silly

    Sure, send it in a PM (or series of PMs). Didn't you make this same offer to Dr. Dave? If it's something like he shows here, then I don't find it particularly interesting: it says you have to "estimate" how much to pivot. Why should I be interested in "estimating how much to pivot" when I can...

    Why CTE is silly

    Vague, cryptic assertions. Why is it that NO CTE advocate EVER can make a clear and definitive assertion? Oh...good thing I'm here to tell you why: because to be a CTE "believer" requires a DELUSION (that they're actually using CTE to "aim" in order to pocket balls), and delusions REQUIRE...

    Why CTE is silly

    I'll just take this as representative of the entire post, which is of the flavor: "I know it sounds crazy, but it WORKS!" You recommend "hard work" to understand. I wonder what kind of work you think earning PhDs in scientific fields, or doing research in science and engineering entails. One...

    CTE/ PRO ONE with Stan Shuffett

    Thanks for the offer, Mike; but it's not necessary. I plan to buy the DVD to review (in my own sweet time). It's not something that I would ask a refund for under any circumstances--from anyone...well, if I get a BLANK DVD I'm sure gonna ask for a replacement :) I'm just a "no return" kinda...

    Why CTE is silly

    Yeah, that's clear as mud. It COULD be logically true: CTE has APPARENT VALUE, but one doesn't necessarily need to use IT specifically--because other things have equal value, and one could use those. BUT, if you aren't able to see that you lack something that is necessary to play at a high...

    Why CTE is silly

    I have thought about it. There are differences: 1) CTE was first brought on the scene by Hal Houle who specifically stated he wanted it to be FREE to the world--who gave it away to anyone who asked. 2) Some still arguing the point CONFERRED with Hal fifteen years ago, and came away saying it...
