All true...but irrelevant. Science is not an issue in the discussion of CTE. It's a question of objectivity and logic regarding simple phenomena. In case you aren't aware of the topic, CTE is a putative aiming system that claims that certain alignments and shifts, based solely on geometry...

Ghostball is the only one I know of--and of course it's "exactness" refers only to geometry, friction makes all systems "inexact" in practice (well, EXCEPT CTE, of course) What is problematic (i.e., impossible) about CTE is the "magical idea" that the necessary information to pocket OBs...

You don't "argue" whether or not CTE/Pro One works, yet you assert that "apologies will be necessary?" Isn't that a contradiction? Doesn't the assertion that apologies will be necessary mean that you assert it "works?" (and I'm ignoring, for the moment, the number of times you have emphasized...

All more or less true.... 1) hardly an "exact" system 2) and it's essentially "shooting by feel" with the addition of assigning some numbers to what you "feel/estimate." That's not a "system," and certainly not an "aiming system" (it might be an aiming "method" that would simply better be...

It's not necessary to be "told how it works" because, quite simply, it doesn't work. That can be known from Spidey--who has claimed to have collaborated with Stan (and Stan hasn't denied that). Spidey says that CTE does not require knowing where the pocket is in relation to the balls--and he...

That's ridiculous. Lots of intelligent people have been educated.

Everything you do and everything you are has its basis in your brain. Intelligence, by the broadest definition, means effectiveness in the working of the brain. Therefore, anyone who does ANYTHING well is expressing "intelligence." By that criteria, I agree with JoeW: If one's brain works well...

No. That's not the "score." Dr. Dave was obviously making loads of links on several posts as A JOKE--and came right out and said so. NONE of the links made to justcueit were meant as jokes. But hey, I tend to agree: I get a bit tired of Dr. Dave's hyper-readiness to link to his site. On the one...

I find it strange that you would say that. Didn't Dr. Dave say at one point earlier that he would link to his site each time you linked to Stan's? I just made a count in this thread: You, JoeyA have linked to justcueit in FIVE DIFFERENT POSTS, and eezbank in one post. Aren't your links driving...

You're so "concerned" about the forum; yet you break its rules more than any other poster I've seen. What you have written above is a DIRECT PERSONAL ATTACK against me--completely contrary to the rules for posting. ..and it's incredibly nasty (and untrue). I have a lifelong interest in pool...

I agree. But doing "what they feel they need to" probably describes every post by every poster on here.... ....so I don't know if there's anything to complain about...Every post that may be bothering JoeyA is just one by somebody "doing what they need to."

If you don't mind, I'll take your use of the word "overboard" as agreement--JoeyA went overboard.

Wrong? Game of chess? If somebody was supposed to have "said something bad" in the thread, is it a "game of chess" to ask which post or posts are the offending ones?

But....do you think ALL THIS DRAMA is necessary because JoeyA is "already on the defensive?" Is this supposed to be therapy time for JoeyA or something? His thread is now filled with non-CTE stuff because of his big drama attack--and NOT because of anyone else's "bad behavior." THAT is the key...

And like I said, if you wish to claim that JoeyA was treated badly in this thread before his "mystery blow up" please point to those posts.

You have no business asking me that question. But to answer you...my NAME has been brought up numerous times in this thread, so I think it's only reasonable for me to see that as a call to respond.

I appreciate your ambivalence (in bold, above). Dr. Dave was NOT trying to incite JoeyA in any unambiguous way. JoeyA blew up and started calling people NAZIS for no real reason. Here's Dr. Dave from post #60: "Joey, Lighten up. I was just teasing you since you're always giving me a hard...

OK. Which posts?

Well, I would think it's a bad strategy on a forum, where there's a RECORD of each post made, in order. :D

My guess is he wouldn't even address the question. And if you have a look for yourself, you will see there is NO justification. The truth is, all the DRAMA in this thread was started de novo by JoeyA himself, apropos of NOTHING.
