Like a broken watch, I am right twice a day. This is just such a time.

And, one last time to get through to you: negligence is purposeful. Don't get your panties in a twist about it--not everything, as my friend NEC will likely attest, is parsed in legal mumbo-jumbo.

I had a private bet you'd be the first to make the connection, IXL, despite quite a few obvious and intentional clues. You are one of the brighter KDs I know...<G>

I'm not arguing anything legally--you've brought that canard into things. It's very simple, even some lawyers might understand it: negligence is purposeful.

Wrong. The DC (ID) "reporting" system heavily favors commenters who willfully and repeatedly hit the Report link, for any and no reason, just because they can. If the liberals on these sections were to engage in that behavior--which they don't (ask Kevin)--it would take a day before any comments were posted. And you would certainly have been under constant moderation.

I didn't want to appear negligent in not letting you know I agree. Wonders never cease.

Wrong. If you purposefully "neglect" to fix the brakes on your Hummer, you have made a purposeful decision.

Wrong, again. Why is it the knuckle-draggers can't accept simple logic, instead parsing everything to meaningless foo-foo? Negligence is purposeful, except--apparently--to lawyers.

You are incorrect: Ribo is not playing lawyer. That is your apparent province.

What the cons forgot is that if there were no BP profits, then there would have been no blow-up.

Funny, the more the big corporations show themselves completely inadequate and incompetant to solve real issues in real time... the more conservatives keep insisting that they are still the solution to the problem.

But accurate. There you go again, wanting a silver platter.

They should also limit conservatives' ability to click the Report link to once per day. That might allow some liberals to get out of moderation (I know, I know: NEC's under moderation, but I believe that's because conservatives don't know how to pigeonhole him, so click Report...just because they can).

Yep...the DC has definitely gone tea-party on us.

Oh, yes: I forgot about your obsessive need for instant gratification. But, that's just another silver platter, isn't it?

"Since your English degree seems to have left you wanting in legal as well as economic matters, lets keep it simple and revert to your anemic Hummer example..." That is a disparaging comment. Report yourself. However, since your English degree seems to have left you wanting in legal as well as economic matters, let's keep it simple and revert to your anemic parsing: negligence is an inclusive term that also includes the novel concept of "criminal". Criminal negligence is not simply an accident, as you infer.

It's on the Top Stories page. Want another silver platter?

That's no ad hom. You consistently ask for platters, preferably silver. It's your pattern of abuse.

Old news: that occurred several years ago.
