$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('shortonsense', '')$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('SeaGypsy', 'T')here can be little doubt that the substantial distraction of this years Southern Ocean Japanese whale hunt had a slowing impact.


Well..you could say that with certainty only if you knew the future back before the season started...and you can't, so the statement fails on its face.


Still struggling with this basic concept I see :roll:

One last time, the statements concerning reduced catch being caused by Sea Shepherd have been made by the whalers. The activists are very happy to be able to quote them, but the whalers(hope the bold type is helping with this tricky notion) have blamed lost earnings on the activists. Once again, here's the spokesman for the "Institute for Cetacean Research" (pseudo-scientific PR face of the Japanese whaling industry), Glenn Inwood, complaining about the impact of the activists:

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', 'M')r Inwood said the whalers lost 31 days because of harrassment and interference by the Sea Shepherd group, but other factors such as bad weather also contributed.


You can listen to the whole interview here if you're still having difficulties :lol:

I know you want your silly story you're telling yourself to be true, but you really should listen to the whalers. I think they probably know more about it. Still, that's what happens when you get your current events information from South Park, eh? :wink:

No problem with the basic concept. The whalers can't foretell the future either. And I'm betting they have always complained about how their catch sucks because of the interference of someone or something. I actually think the working stiffs might like the idea that their catch is being dicked with by the impotents, then they can shrug their shoulders when the boss asks why they didn't work their humps off and bring back 2000 whales when they only were able to collect 500.

Haven't you ever seen a working stiff in action before when he gets called out by management for not doing as much as what management had envisioned?

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('pstarr', 'S')hort, you smear activists as impotents.


Lets not generalize now cupcake, I have only been referring to one particular activist in this thread.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('pstarr', '
')You insulted me above as "funny?"


Well, actually someone else insulted you, and I just thought his insult was hysterical. And could be another piece in the puzzle as to why you act the way you do, and troll a place like this.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('pstarr', ' ')

You rhetorical affectations tell me you identify with the upper crust, yet you pretend to speak for the working man?


Stop trying to make every thread about you. We don't care. Like I said before, go hump someone else's leg.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('pstarr', '
') I stood face to face with loggers in the woods and did not back down. I photographed them physically abusing protesters and refused to allow them to have my camera or film.


Gee. Wow. How exciting. Did you hump their legs before boring them to death with tales of your exploits? Did Animal Planet make a show about YOUR impotence? The topic isn't your activism Pee, its whether or not the whale hunt was interrupted or effected by the impotent activists in the South Sea.



$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('pstarr', '
')I was one of thousands who finally forced YOUR GOVERNMENT to buy the Headwaters Forests. I FORCED YOUR government dish out one billion dollars to buy some redwood trees.

You call me impotent? Sucker.

I refer to Paul as impotent. And my government used to pay $600 for toilet seats, whats a few billion here and there to buy a few tree's? Sounds like you sold out pretty easily.

Spelling schmelling. Back in the day when I actually wrote, I would just hand it over to copy editors. Nowadays I just avoid writing sentences with more than 5 or 6 words and it keeps me out of trouble. And I never correct grammar and punctuation on papers, I assign value to the originality of the concept or thoroughness of the argument.

Look at you. You are an activist too know. You did some homework, you clueless, homophobic, anti-semitic, racist moron.

I was arrested many times defending many of the species listed above. (See my underlines. and more), you clueless, homophobic, anti-semitic, racist moron.


well "was" is not good enough. You are as good as your last paycheck , you know this already, probably a big boy by now. And keep your yappalo trimmed-- my racism is as much related to this thread as your liberasty is. Besides, you are making (many) assumptions that have no relation to me whatsoever.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('shortonsense', '')$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('yeahbut', 'O')ne last time, the statements concerning reduced catch being caused by Sea Shepherd have been made by the whalers.


No problem with the basic concept. The whalers can't foretell the future either. And I'm betting they have always complained about how their catch sucks because of the interference of someone or something. I actually think the working stiffs might like the idea that their catch is being dicked with by the impotents, then they can shrug their shoulders when the boss asks why they didn't work their humps off and bring back 2000 whales when they only were able to collect 500.

Haven't you ever seen a working stiff in action before when he gets called out by management for not doing as much as what management had envisioned?


And that, my fellow peak oilers, is the sad spectacle of a (presumably)grown man sticking his fingers in his ears and going "lalalalala" :-D

Why let the facts get in the way of a good story, and why let the specific report of the whalers that they lost 31 days to harassment by the activists get in the way of your made up idea of what happened? 8)

I have no objection to the whalers complaining about how they've been screwed with any more than I do the Fleet of Impotence declaring victory under any and all circumstances. I think the Fleet of Impotence can cause both to win, without either side being able to prove it, but both are happy to proclaim victory.

For the Japanese, they develop international support for cleaning up the morons interfering with a legal activity, for the Impotents, they get a higher per show fee from whoever picks up their TV show.

I say its a win-win for both to declare they are being screwed with, regardless of truth.

Hardly a laa-laa-laa moment at all.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('pstarr', '
')So what exactly do you mean by "cleaning up the morons?" Can you possibly be more specific?


Of course I can Pee.

Moron: a very foolish or stupid person

"cleaning up the morons" translates as "cleaning up the very foolish or stupid people" who are interfering with legal activities in the South Sea.

Why would "stupid and foolish" be an honest characterization of these people?

Easy. Given the choice between "intelligent" and "moron", which adjective more closely characterizes people who claim of their ship "I do have the coolest boat in the world", made of a composite carbon fiber, 13 ton, capable of 45 knots, oceanic range, capable of complete submersion and designed for high maneuverability, which is then parked in front of 500 tons of slow steel.

Certainly fascinating and wonderful reality TV, which fits right in with my speculation on why the Fleet of Impotence does what it does, but certainly "stupid and foolish" as well. Morons.

By demonstrating such inability to control and pilot their own craft, while simultaneously endangering others, they make an excellent point that they shouldn't even be allowed to crew a ship in the local lake, let alone in the open waters of the South Sea anywhere near other ships going about their legal and internationally accepted business. Such ridiculous behavior will hopefully cause action to be taken by the countries which flag such ships to "clean up the morons".

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('pstarr', 'Y')ou spouted your usual flourish, but you did not answer my question. How do you propose "cleaning up the morons?"


Well, I'm thinking that international pressure, for starters, on the countries which flag the Fleet of Impotence. With luck they'll get at least some classes in "Remedial Boat Handling" or some such? This improvement alone might clean up the "moron" quotient, a simple class in .. "don't park lightweight carbon fiber in front of steel battering rams" perhaps?

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('SeaGypsy', 'Y')ep WTF r de tokn bout spellin fer? D uth no how 2 comkate jus fine!.



Oh, I just enjoy pointing out Shorty's spelling and grammatical errors every now and then because he claims to be an educator, and I feel this might diminish any slight credibility he might have. Of course it might not, but I still enjoy it. :)
