With the exception of you, those "others"(lost) had so very little to share, they simply had no ability to continue to fight. I on the otherhand got new information(weapons) almost everyday.

They had theory, they had academics, one definition is, (a study or project) not ready for practical implementation. Its theory, not fact. As opposed to a clutch of eggs, thats fact, not theory.

Why they left, academics is the opposite of results. Lack of results is academics.

Also, they build their academic knownledge on what they "thought" happens in nature, which may or may not be right or in context with captivity. In otherwords, they were out of place(wrong forum) and lacked experience in the context of this forum(the keeping and breeding, of varanids) Then they relied on academic knowledge instead of actual hardcore results. Which I recieve on a daily basis.

It also appears they were not all that smart. I was taught education superceeds bullying. All I had to do is appear to bully them and off they ran, hahahahahahahahaha If they were smart, remember these are university folks(some PHD's), who are taught in the arts of debate and writing, and practice arguing on a daily basis, could have and should have run circles around me. So, they appear to not be that smart or that educated. And surely they had no experience. In reality, they could not win, not in this arena(forum) or with the monitors.

You sir, proved that with brains and being creative, you can win over reality. But then, you used genius, something they lacked. You used me against me, brillant, just brillant. Where you failed was taking a partner(the librarian) He allowed an area for me to attack, he was your weak link. He lost control and was easily angered, then lost focus(he did not have much to start with)

Yes those were times where the blood flowed and we knew we were alive.

As you know, I love to test things(science) you sir, made a wonderful human experiment(test). What a beautiful experiment it was. You had the best of the best falling over sideways, how wonderful.

At first I did not like what you were doing, then I saw what it was causing, polarization, and I started to enjoy it. Then I started to like it. Then I was amazed at how brillant you are.

At first I thought what you were doing was harmful. Then I learned it actually helped seperate the mix. It did not matter how educated they were, the mix seperated. It actually allowed more people to learn and test techniques, it also allowed more to fall for academics. Then I realized, they would do that anyway, only it would take longer. Our arguements(test) quickly created more successful keepers. It gave them reason to work hard and stay working. You know, to prove one of us wrong.

So yes, I can blame you for my attitude today. Now I try to seperate the ones that will succeed from the ones that won't. The ones that have the ability to succeed, benefit from information, the ones that won't, are academic. Cheers

P.S. like the old days, you and I are about the only ones that will understand this post. hahahahahahahahahahahahaha
