Hello Chillzero,
and thank you for your reply. I here address what you've had to say as follows:
The above is obviously convoluted. You start by staking out a claim that you are being "dissed" by basing that claim on my having expressly stated that you are making "important contributions."
You then continue by making an assertion about my motive, apparently on a past tense, present tense and future tense basis as well.
All of that in a context that is very reminiscent of one of your first posts where an example of an action that you asked that I not do was preceded by an example of your having done a variant of the same thing, only worse.
You are continuing to that Chillzero, could you but realize it.
Let me be straight with you: Your contributions to this thread, based on your career experience, is invaluable. Your contributions are much appreciated for the value they add to the thread.
It is not a contradiction in any sense of the word or concept to state what I have in the above paragraph on the nature of your contributions on the one hand and to express disagreement with you on the other.
I re-assessed my postion in light of the available information. That was not intended to be disrespectful and I am not sure of the logic that informs your claim that it is disrespectful for me to re-assess my position on a matter under discussion. I do not think this discussion is akin to entering into a contractual agreement where both sides agree to be bound by specified terms and conditions.
Do you agree or disagree with the contention that there is no basis for your asserting that we had a contract on the issue of SAIC's control of the GZ site in the aftermath of 9/11?
Added bonus query for all of us to engage in:
Who or what entity controlled the GZ site and upon what do we base our assertion concerning control?
There are limits to what people can actually understand from one another. Language is not exact. I do my best to rely on the ordinary, common meaning of words and phrases that I use and that others, including you, appear to use.
That is all I can do. I seek to understand what you say and to draw proper and reasonable inferences.
I will continue to do that and only that.
I don't think we're quite there yet, frankly. I am not at all sure we'll ever be able to get beyond the "quest for respect." In fact, just like in gangland, once the "respect/disrespect" cycle gets going, it is difficult to end it as almost every reply ends up being analyzed until a conclusion that it contains a "dis" can be found.
I am not willing to go down that path.
That said, I hope we can continue to have a meaningful discussion. To the extent that I have offended you, I am genuinely sorry for having done so. I will endeavor to avoid offending you as best I possibly can in each and every post I might make.
A technique that I have often employed that might be useful is that of "double checking" for accuracy. Instead of interpreting your words, what I can do in future posts is to use a formula based on the following model.
"Chillzero, in post # ____, you had this to say: " quote whatever it is"
I would like to double check with you for accuracy of understanding. As I understand your quote, it appears to mean "statemenof of my understanding of what you have said".
Is that what you meant?"
If you like, I can post up that way. Do you think that would help? Do you think you could do the same thing in response to things I might post? Do you think your doing so would help?
I am not inclined to make a specific accusation against SAIC or ARA just yet. Correlation is not the same as causation. What I am prepared to say is correlative in nature and I will here repeat it:
SAIC and ARA are companies that are deeply involved in psyops and in high tech weaponry, including the manufacture, development and lethality testing of directed energy weaponry (DEW). Each company also played a key role in the fraudulent mis-investigation that failed to determine what caused the destruction of the WTC, which investigation was conducted by NIST. SAIC has had a key, controlling role in the management of access to and activity within the GZ site from 9/11 forward, to and including the present.
In furtherance of the above statement, I here rely on prior posts in this thread, including, by way of example, posts ## 70 and 77, and others, as noted below:

Let me hasten to add that more specifics concerning the correlation I made in bold above are needed. I admit that. I will provide other and further specifics based either on dialogue with you; or, if we run up against your posting limitations, then I will rely on what information I can find and post it.
I think there's a possibility you may be engaging in disengenuity in the above.
In order to determine whether that claim of possibility is accurate, I should like here to double-check with you for accuracy of understanding:
In the above quote you state:
"You made reference to "the kind of devices that would have been used on 9/11 in the simulation of hijackings of aircraft, as took place on 9/11" - where is your evidence for these? Be specific and clear about what you mean if you are going to tell me that you are not making any accusations, because that sure looks like one to me."
I will post up references to certain military capabilities in the area of DEW and holography. However, it is not possible to be specific about such matters beyond a certain point as such weaponry is subject to high secrecy classification. And, therein lies, as well, a rub that you and I may have. In my view, it is inappropriate to rely on confidentiality on the one hand to refrain from disclosure and then to ask for specifics, on the other. This is especially apt if you have information that you cannot share that would be in realm of confirming information, were it to be disclosed.
So, in short, do not ask for specifics if you know that the request is associated with confidential information. You cannot have it both ways.
You can withhold, fine. But, my request is do not ask for specifics about matters for wherein which you are relying on confidentiality.
If you are speaking about the SAIC job listings, I thought that had been adequately addressed by another poster--Newton?

If that isn't adequate then I am not willing to pursue the matter further. If you claim the job postings are fraudulent and fake or whatever, then so be it. That is your claim.
My claim remains that SAIC is deeply involved in PSYOPs. Do you dispute that claim?
all the best
and thank you for your reply. I here address what you've had to say as follows:
You are being disrespectful to me by making disingenuous comments about respecting what I say, that I am making important contributions here, when you have no intention of accepting anything I say that opposes your beliefs.
The above is obviously convoluted. You start by staking out a claim that you are being "dissed" by basing that claim on my having expressly stated that you are making "important contributions."
You then continue by making an assertion about my motive, apparently on a past tense, present tense and future tense basis as well.

It is not a contradiction in any sense of the word or concept to state what I have in the above paragraph on the nature of your contributions on the one hand and to express disagreement with you on the other.
You are being disrepectful by claiming that you will believe me when I refute your claim - that someone else already refuted - that you will accept my claim and admit your error, then turn around and do the exact opposite.
I re-assessed my postion in light of the available information. That was not intended to be disrespectful and I am not sure of the logic that informs your claim that it is disrespectful for me to re-assess my position on a matter under discussion.

You are being disrespectful when you have taken offense at my making it clear to you that we will have little to discuss if you are intent on twisting my words to say something that I did not say, and then doing exactly that several times - including when making the statement I was responding to above.
There are limits to what people can actually understand from one another. Language is not exact. I do my best to rely on the ordinary, common meaning of words and phrases that I use and that others, including you, appear to use.
That is all I can do. I seek to understand what you say and to draw proper and reasonable inferences.
I will continue to do that and only that.
Anyway, before we go further, understand this. I have no stake at all in this discussion. I merely responded to a request for anyone who had dealings with SAIC. I have pointed out a few times that if you want to gather information from anyone there are ways and means to go about it, and ways and means to lose their respect and cooperation. You are still leaning heavily to the latter. If you want me to cooperate at all, then be respectful. If you think I am disrespectful *shrug* not sure how much more respectful I can be in light of your behaviour, but the discussion is yours to lose. I don't care either way. You wanted something, remember?

I have asked you to clarify your claim. You have not. To say:

Requires you to posit something other than what has become accepted understanding of what happened that day, and who was responsible. You have made vague claims about simulated planes. You made reference to "the kind of devices that would have been used on 9/11 in the simulation of hijackings of aircraft, as took place on 9/11" - where is your evidence for these? Be specific and clear about what you mean if you are going to tell me that you are not making any accusations, because that sure looks like one to me.
I think there's a possibility you may be engaging in disengenuity in the above.

I have asked you - something that could be easily cleared up if you are trying to be genuine - to clarify the situation with what I perceive to be an untrustworthy website. You have not.
