'The Swanson Marginalia' Revisited

[Jeff Leahy]

Jeff,

The fact that Paul doesn't choose to post on the boards does not prevent anyone from asking any question that they choose to ask on the boards. Neither is the podcast mine to decide which topics will and will not be discussed. The podcast is Jonathon's and it is up to him to decide which topics will be discussed. However, I dont think the podcast should be used as anyone's personal soapbox or as a means to get out of answering questions they would prefer not to answer in the medium they were asked.If Paul doesn't choose to participate in the open debate of the forums, he already has Ripperologist where he can choose to present his argument aloft, if that is his choice.

But I am not going to stop asking questions here because people would prefer not to answer them.

Fire away by all means. You just wont get a responce here, its that simple.

And Norma trying to claim Paul is hiding just is silly and Not true....

Paul doesnt post on casebook because its to time consuming to give justice to the replies that he would prefer to give...

He's very busy..its as simple as that

I am being serious when I ask why none of those responsible for including this matter as a bona fide entry in their book,have made an appearance to answer perfectly legitimate questions about it.
The handwriting expert appears to have hedged his bets about the match between marginalia and end notes.This is of significance.The matter needs to be addressed by those responsible for its inclusion in the first place,as an item of unquestionable provenance.

Oh what a pile of crap. You know you really need to stop being the self-elected spokesperson for Paul before you dig him in any deeper. First you will only tell the reason "in private". Now you come out and claim it's because he's too busy to devote the kind of time that a Casebook answer requires. This despite the fact he apparently has found time to post about a dozen times in the past day elsewhere. Or are you saying that he can post on other sites because they don't demand rigorous thought or application of standards? So he's busy, so he'll only post on the fluffy, non-challenging and thought-lite boards...

No Ally the fact I was trying to spare you is casebook has more than its fair share of nutters......

I'm certainly not a self elected spokesman, just a friend a neighbour and part time driver.

As you know where he posts go and ask him yourself..

i have my daughter staying and a boat to paint

Nah what's the point, he has an account on Casebook. It's apparently not so full of nutters that he avoids it entirely. He's checked this thread at least 4 times today that I know about. If anyone wants to know, you can tell in Who's Online when someone is checking a thread.

So he's got an account at Casebook, he logs in, he reads. There's nothing preventing him from answering here, if he actually chose to answer any of these questions.

He clearly doesn't. Locale is irrelevant.

[Natalie Severn]

So who are these nutters? Anyone who disagrees with him?

You'll be pleased to know your name isn't on the list

But it could be unless you hang a little lose and regain your sense of humour

Nice to know that your personal details when dealing with casebook are secure and not discussed in public...

I really do wonder why someone would not choose to post here?

Its just as well I have a skin as thick as a rhinoceros..I wonder who's on admin?

Cheeky bugger!

All forums have that feature. Way to be aware of the world around you, Jeff. And each poster can choose to be hidden if they want to. Paul has not made that choice.

But of course, as someone just said, this is not the Where's Begg thread.

I would like to get back to the questions that are inherent in the idea that the Swanson Marginalia was not written as a continuous whole.
