Well, I guess this is as close as we'll get you to admitting that you lied.

How many is that? Are they at different universities? Do they have
different backgrounds? What are their qualifications? Why don't you name
a couple of them, or better yet, have them post their opinion on this
forum. I can't wait to read your excuse on why they won't do it. You
have yet to cite any source that we can check.

Please show us how you actually determined this. You've made up other
so-called facts before; why should any of us believe that you aren't doing
so now?

Actually, I can find lots of unfavorable remarks about CMT in textbooks; I
just can't find any (textbook or magazine or journal articles) that deny
it is a form of multitasking.

My logic: I can cite sources to back up my writing. You can't.
Don's logic: State something. Since you are Don the Stud, it must be
true. After all, since you don't cite any actual sources, you don't
believe that we can prove beyond the shadow of a doubt that you are just
making this stuff up.

I ask you AGAIN: if you weren't commenting on my education by referring
to my .edu address and implying that I don't have a BSCS, then WHAT THE
HELL WERE YOU TALKING ABOUT??? Quit trying to weasel out of answering the
question.

Show us one, just one instance, where I either altered your words to
change the meaning or where I quoted you out of context and changed the
meaning. Put up or shut up.

Again, show a specific instance.

Not particularly. They just tend to be a bit more precise than saying
something like "perhaps you are mistaken", since you are deliberately
trying to pass your opinion off as fact.
