If the 'Dear Boss' letter is a hoax...

[John G]

Not excellent, John. Steve should apologize for lying about me writing words I did not write and he should withdraw his outrageous comments on what I write.

Please see post 295 as this perfectly encapsulates my view on the matter.

[David Orsam]

I did not present a post where I wrote the name "Berner Street", or the word "Minorities" or the concept "Holy Trinity Minority".

You said that those exact words were in my own post, when they were not. Therefore it was a lie.

Steve didn't say that they were your "exact words". He said, "we can look at what pierre has claimed on the issue".

Does this mean you are telling a lie now?

[Pierre]

Excellent post, Steve. Pierre should withdraw his outrageous comment, which has no foundation whatsoever, and offer you a full apology.

[Pierre]

That is what you said pierre, I quote below

"The Ripper Letter is using a metaphorical language. It gives the information that the killer will strike on September 30th in "the Minories" were he will kill two women. The Minories was an old parish covering both the murder sites."


So you said the killer will strike in the Minories where he will kill two women.
You also say the parish covered both murder sites.

I see no difference between my summary and what you posted.

I have not lied. However by calling me a liar when it appears such a claim is false and without basis what exactly does that say about you?

The truth is that you cannot face upto honest criticism and accuse others of things they have not done.


I await your reply to tell me how I am a liar ?

I hope you don't mind me answering this.

Nothing has been established at all:

Not the writer of the letter.

Not the date it was written or posted.


However we can look at what pierre has claimed on the issue:

To begin with Pierre posted 2 women would be killed in the Minority and both Berners-Lee Street and Mitre Square were in the parish of Holy Trinity Minority.

Inst means "this month". This month is the 30th.

I follow that Inst means "this month" when it follows a number. But how does one get from "this month" to "the 30th"?

[John G]

Inst means "this month". This month is the 30th.

How on earth can the "1st and 2nd inst" mean the 30th of the month?

LIAR.

Please be explicit about what you consider to be a lie

[David Orsam]

You behave like a child. You try to force words upon me that I do not speak.

Read this again: "at work" "in the Minories".

Do I mention Berner Street above?

Yes you do Pierre, here are your actual words:

"The Ripper Letter is using a metaphorical language. It gives the information that the killer will strike on September 30th in "the Minories" were he will kill two women. The Minories was an old parish covering both the murder sites."

You were there claiming that both murder sites were in an old parish called the Minories. Exactly as I just said. I was not forcing words upon that you did not speak. I was stating precisely what you said.

[John G]

But the killer was not at work "in the Minories". This has already been explained to you.

[Pierre]

You call Steve a liar Pierre but the fact is that you did say that Berner Street and Mitre Square were in the ancient parish of Minories did you not?

[John G]

That is wrong. Every letter has provenance but we are not always able to establish it.

Pierre

So this source, which you seem to have staked your reputation on, is virtually worthless then?

[Pierre]

Yes, it's worth pointing out that the term midnight, when considered in the context of a date change, is ambiguous, as technically midnight is neither ante-meridian nor post-meridian, therefore neither the 1st nor 2nd of a month.

Inst means "this month". This month is the 30th.
