Did Jack only kill 3?

[Tom_Wescott]

I am not getting personal there are enough smart arses on here as it is without the need for a female to join the group.

That is just wrong, Trevor. Phil Carter has as much right to an opinion as you do.

Yours truly,

Tom Wescott

But then- why rule out Cutbush? -just on Macnaghten's say so?
What is it that people find so threatening about some of us wanting to treat the police involved in the original investigation as if they might have known a thing or two lost to us now? Just in case? Rightly or wrongly, they had opinions.What if one of them was right?

I doubt James was all that far from the truth.

Yours truly,

Tom Wescott

Lynn, Phil: A little fight followed by a '60's like lovefest. Ain't casebook grand?

[Errata]

What else can you do but laugh off such an idiotic comment?

It's not idiotic. Of course rookie smart asses would HATE it when the pros step in.

no fan

Hello Phil, Maria. If I recall properly, Simon is no fan of my Isenschmid theory. Perfectly alright.

Maria, thanks for the kind words. You, too, Phil.

Cheers.

I KNOW you're not a Feigenbaumist (or a bigamist, lol), more than Trevor Marriott is supposedly "sexist“. As you say in the UK, “storm in a teapot“.
As for Lynn's/Simon's and your idea about for C1, C2, and JI, Trevor's organ harvesting theory and the giant rat/tampon scenario, please let me withold a comment, though I'm the one of the very few who's considering the value in Trevor's and your efforts pertaining to the availability of the SB ledgers and have even signed Trevor's petition. In fact, I find it completely unfortunate that he's participating in the York conf with the organs thing instead of SB again.
(And of course I'm a great admiror of Lynn's vast/impressive knowledge, his research on the Victorian anarchists, would VERY much like to work with him researching possible Okhrana involvement on the Berner Street murder, and consider Lynn as a real friend.)

Hello Maria,

Thank you for the kind comment re the SB ledgers, although it was mainly Trevor's work and there were three others who contributed in some part, myself included.

As far as JI is concerned, as far as I know Lynn is the man behind that although Simon may wish to answer for himself there.
I do not know what Trevor has on his agenda for York I'm afraid. I am not privy to his intentions. I am 99% certain that although in England that weekend, I am sadly, and unfortunately unable to attend at present.

Best wishes

Hi Phil,

Well, 'hacks' I could find, but no dictionary in the world is telling me what 'deflectionary' means.

Anyway, without prolonging this unnecessarily, and since you've acknowledged that you agree that Trevor's remark was improper and in contravention of the published rules, you can put this to bed for the evening by reporting his post. Ready to do that?

Regards,

Mark

Hello Mark,

'As indeed' reflected an equal. So do please inform me how many heads do YOU want to see roll? I don't. My aim is clear. It would be perhaps best if all noted their own actions and reconsidered them. (I include myself)
As regards MY actions on the matter, I note the response given by Debs and see that it was dealt with as she saw fit. I believe it was primarily her call.

For my part, I am happy with my response to you, and won't even respond to your 'dictionary' remark. That would also be 'beneath me' and 'poor form', according to the standards you yourself impose.

With that I shall return to the topic of the thread.

Best wishes

Phil

Hello Maria,
No- I am not a Feiginbaumist.
I have no suspect suspicion apart from liking Lynn's idea for C1 and C2, in JI.

I don't 'expect' anything of you Mark. But it should be noted that Debs responded as she saw fit.

Oh so its ok for Debra to have a sarcastic pop at me but when I reply all hell breaks loose. You are like big kids, get a life

No, I asked you a perfectly reasonable question, which you still haven't answered yet. If cut throat murders were so common as you and others keep saying, how can you know that Feigenbaum, a man convicted of one cut throat murder on the other side of the pond (motive propbably robbery?), versus several unconnected (if we are to believe what is being pushed lately as a theory) cut throat murders in one concentrated area of East London,is responsible for any of them? What's Feigenbaum's signature that makes his murders in the East End so obvious?

[Phil Carter]

You're not by any chance Feigenbaum yourself?

Phil, I'm about to PM you, I payed for the books about 40' min. ago.

Hello Maria,

Thanks- will look into that now.

No- I am not a Feiginbaumist.

Hi Phil,

I think that entire post is below you, to be honest. You don't have to disapprove of Trevor's methods or his conclusions to know that the remark I quoted isn't on. Nor do you have to look very far to find a rule which it might very well infringe:



It's been said before, but here we are in someone else's house: so we ought to follow their rules.

Nor am I with you re: the 'hacks'. As far as I can tell, you're alluding to (as one dictionary tells me) 'writers who produce dull, mediocre or routine work'. I can't quite tell whether that's aimed at me specifically, or whether you perceive me to be among a group of hacks who all deserve your disdain, or whether you expect me to cheerfully agree with you that there are plenty of hacks around here playing an ugly game. Perhaps it doesn't matter.

Poor form on your part, old chap, I'm afraid. Very poor form.

Regards,

Mark

Hello Mark,

You missed the 'lol'. As explained, meant ironic and deflectionary- it included the remark about 'hacks'. IF it was meant seriously I'd have said so. It wasnt. Poor form to assume it was and believe that it was when 'lol'- laughs out loud- is clearly used,
'As indeed' indicated my agreement.

I don't 'expect' anything of you Mark. But it should be noted that Debs responded as she saw fit.

As regards 'poor form'- Im not perfect, but as to things being 'below me' I won't condone nor join in the oft used tactic of ganging up on individuals, which in some individuals cases, is repetitive. Whether THAT is below some people is for them and their concience. Note I will not inform you what I believe is 'beneath' you. That WOULD be poor form, old chap.

Best wishes

Phil,

note at the same time the playground ganging up is quick to start and preceeded it.

Why is it necessarily "ganging up"? Trev is normally crude and rude, but this time he went too far and a number of us reacted. Trev could have simply apologized (we all misspeak at times) and it would be quickly forgotten. instead, Mr. Bluster says it was "a joke" and then excoriates the rest of us for lacking a sense of humor. Uh huh, sure.

Don.
