I have no problem with you, Sweepin' Stan. I'd rather remain friendly and cordial than argue all the time.
"But here I am setting you up to argue by honey coating it with 'I'd rather remain friendly." Friendly? What a joke.
Here is my position in a nutshell (I think you already know it):
There is no nutshell. Your position is in a B-52 hangar.
I believe you have worked sincerely at presenting an interesting aiming system to the pool world. Many played better because of it, some have not. I do not believe the system is 100% objective and that it works for the reason you say it does (the "mystery" phenonemon).
"But I, DAN WHITE-Chemical Engineer, know that it doesn't work that way even though I can't describe or execute the instructions for any semblance of success".
I have presented some alternate ideas over the last couple of years to that effect. Many other people (like ENGLISH!) were upset that you called it an objective system and that was the ONLY REASON they were upset.
ENGLISH, like yourself, are two nobodies in the world of pool that have never accomplished JACK SQUAT. Nothing more than two highly opinionated know-it-all big mouths infecting a pool forum with venom.
You said yourself more recently that you didn't fully understand everything about CTE but you do now and that it will be revealed in your book. My reaction to that is simply to wait and see what your book says.
How many times are you going to say "my reaction is simply to wait and see what your book says" and then turn right around with 10 more scathing, miserably negative posts about CTE or Stan. You say it 1-3 times daily and then follow up with the crap.
I don't know everything and if you say your book finally explains all then who am I to disagree?
You'll be the same know-it-all negative bad seed you've always been. There's nothing going to change.
If you can prove that it really is 100% objective then terrific! That will end the dispute, at least in my mind.
ROTFLMAO! Like I said before, you are a very accomplished liar.
I would be very happy for you and CTE Pro1 if it all pans out in your book. I have never said that some people don't play better with CTE and I have never told people not to learn it.
No, not directly in those words. But there's something written by you every day for the last 10 years intimating the system is flawed and a hoax.
As to your somewhat over-zealous supporters in this forum, they seem to be chasing thier tails.
Truth is, we're trying to chase YOUR TAIL and LOU'S TAIL out of the CTE threads forever. It's disgusting.
All of your supporters say they don't care how it works, it just does. I think cookie just said that again in another thread. Well my main interest is in how it works.
But you don't think you should get it to work first, correct?
So the logical fallacy is that when I suggest a couple of possible explanations, they all jump up and down and say I'm wrong.
Because you are wrong.
So how is it possible that they don't know and don't really care how it works yet at the same time they know my explanations can't be correct?
Real simple. Because you can't explain how to perform it let alone actually performing any of it.
You can say, well your explanation can't be right because of x,y,z, but they don't do that. They just shout me down and say I don't know anything. So that goes on for how many years?
Well, as many years as you've been running your big negative mouth off.
That's my full story. I have no hidden agenda and I don't hate anybody here to the degree that I want to see CTE "fail." I have always simply wanted to make sense of the mystery phenomenon, period.
Learn it, learn how to perform it. How is that for starters.
So hopefully that comes across in the positive spirit it was intended. Unfortunately I cannot control the few howler monkeys in the forum who enjoy the bickering and distortion of positions.
In the previous sentence you said you have no hidden agenda and don't hate anybody. Then you follow it up with a description of a "FEW HOWLER MONKEYS". THAT SHOULD BE A BANNABLE OFFENSE.
But in the jungle where HOWLER MONKEYS exist, they have an acquired sense of impending danger when a snake in the grass comes slithering through ready to strike with all of it's harmful venom. They can recognize it immediately.
But in the fog of all the back and forth I wanted to restate things for you specifically so you know I wish you well with the book release. I'm still "dubious" of the whole explanation, but I am willing to reserve judgment.
Regards,
Dubious Dan
