I didn't know how this Stephen Nagler got to sci.med.cardiology until
I Googled back a week or so. He first showed up here on 21 Dec
preaching the following message:
"I cannot make recommendations or requests regarding *this* newsgroup, but on alt.support.tinnitus
we have - through trial and (a lot of) error - found that ad hominem attacks (no matter how cleverly
cloaked) ultimately serve no purpose but to reflect poorly on the attacker and to detract from the
value of the newsgroup. If you are going to insist on double-posting, I very respectfully request
that - at least for the purposes of alt.support.tinnitus - you please consider confining your
comments to the merits (or lack thereof) of the various issues and refrain from making derogatory
comments about the people espousing those issues."
lol
How soon he forgets his own, self-serving advice (self-serving in that Nagler wants to control
alt.support.tinnitus and attempts to do so with usenet lectures like the above - as if he was
appointed Moderator De Facto).
By the very next day, we have this from Nagler:
"Dr. Chung, that's the kind of [censored] that just doesn't help anyone!
You're a spiritual man, if I read your posts correctly, Dr. Chung. So what was it that Hillel said
when asked to give the essence of the Bible while standing on one foot?
Ah yes. Here it is:
"That which is hateful to you, do not do to your neighbor. This is the entire [Bible]; the rest is
commentary - go and learn it." (Babylonian Talmud, Shabbat 31a)
Something to think about, no?"
lol
In the same day, Nagler repeats his lecture one, we will soon see, is only aimed at others and
apparently not for his use.
"I can only counter by noting that ad hominem attacks - even if 100% true - are still ad hominem
attacks and are in the main counterproductive, in my opinion. If somebody is behaving "fanatically
and irrationally," it seems to me that such will become quite obvious to even the uninitiated
reader if the discussion sticks to the position being espoused rather that to the person espousing
the position.
Look, I think I can speak with some authority on this topic. I have been the victim of numerous ad
hominem attacks and have dealt out quite a few of my own. No good ever came of it on
alt.support.tinnitus ... and I suspect no good will ever come of it here."
Aw, how much longer until the true Nagler Hypocrite shows up? A matter of hours.
"More double talk, Chung. Verbal masturbation.
When I say "being equally heard," I mean "being equally effective."
And you damned well know it.
Sheesh. What a jerk! I sure hope you give your patients more credit for intelligence than you give
the readership here."
But, alas, one more (of many) hypocritical posts from Nagler.
"Mu, Kiss my ass and call it love story.
lol
And people wonder why he ran away from SMC in a cloud of dust and a mighty Hi Ho Hypocrite,
Away!!!!!!!!!!!!
