I am DISAGREEING with your advice. I thought it was bad advice. You came back with a rebuttal saying I was being general and I explained why you were wrong. Let's not get personal. I simply think you are wrong and I explained very specifically why. I don't care about being disagreed with buy if you can't take having your views questioned, then who is being personal?

So, I am perplexed by your characterization of me as "being defensive". Do you see that if there was any attack on my part, I attacked your views. I then DEFENDED my views. I wasn't defending myself against personal attack, I was backing up my views. I actually see very little point in endless arguments on the net but that is why I pick my battles.

By the way, in case it isn't obvious the "holier than thou" comment was directed at the characterizations of my post as "generalizations". In other words, until we get into specifics with an OP, ANYONE can be accused of generalization. But you can be sure that every comment I made had the issue at hand at it's heart.

If you give advice to someone then ANYONE has the right to jump on your advice if they see the need to. Get over it. If you can't defend your posts, fine. If you see the need to get the last word in, fine. Most of us will simply stop posting after a while. I can disagree with you without disliking you. But don't assume that everybody knows who to listen to. You say something in an authoritative enough sounding way, and people will take it as gospel, regrardless whether it is right or wrong. If I think someone's advice could be detrimental to another person then I will post away with a rebuttal or a question. You will have your view challenged. It is not self-defense. This is a FORUM. Not a personal soapbox. Debates will happen. That is the end of it for me in this thread. If you want your posts to just stand in isolation without being subject to counter-arguments then a blog with the comments turned off would be the answer.

I certainly don't have all the answers which is why I began to point the op in directions where I think the answers may lie. My intention is NOT to be the last word but to stimulate discussion.

Let's keep the disrespectful comments to a minimum. I don't feel I am wasting my time discussing training issues with anyone.

PM sent.

For the last post you just made. You're simply missing the point. You are talking about an end-run around the problem that can in the future accacerbate the problem. That is what I am disagreeing with. I agree with it not being a good idea to adress mobility with squatting. Let me make that clear. I AGREE. Which is why I said mobility first but then it must be maintained and not undermined by further imbalance.

Again, you made a particular statement and I responded to that statement alone. There was nothing personal in it about my opinion of your knowledge and experience at large.

Let's keep on target. I've had interesting disussions that lasted for pages where we never quite came to an agreement but at least came to understand each other's point of view. Ask Darkhorse, haha, we are still great freinds. And I never disregard. I can't count the number of times I've come back to someone and ended up being in agreement with them down the road.

If you act sanctimonious I will just list out your logical fallacies until you get pissed off and spew blasphemous remarks.
