ROTFLMAO
Yep. I'm one of those damn liberals. I prefer "progressive", but liberal will do. mike "Ron Lee" wrote in message ... "Jay Honeck" wrote: That's bigotry. And Mr. Honeck has repeatedly demonstrated himself to be a bigot. And every now and then, he gets caught by it because he will verbalize one of these sweeping generalizations to somebody who happens to be one of those individuals. mike Wow, first I "hate FBOs", and now I'm a "bigot"? Soon, you'll be calling me a "social climber"... Don't let his comments bother you Jay. His "bigotry" comment is typical of liberals who are the worst at fomenting racism and poverty in the USA. Now before you liberals get your panties in a wad, that is fact, not a generalization. Ron Lee |

No. To support a blanket generalization, one needs to survey the entire population. To refute a blanket generalization, one need only survey a single member of the population, so long as that member is a counter-example. Darn, I hate to jump in here. Most amazing thread on people that are supposed to have a common interest. But, "entire population?". Is that what the Nelsen folks do in their surveys? I suspect not. They take statistically relevant samples. -- Regards, Ross C-172F 180HP KSWI |

Every privately owned hotel I have stayed in has been worse than any chain.

Well he didn't say charter pilots never fill the tank, only when the
tank isn't filled, it is charter pilots. Peter Duniho wrote: "The Visitor" wrote in message ... He has nowhere near enough data points to justify a comment describing "all" charter pilots.

Now they can afford flying. shouting to everyone at the lobby that all corporate pilots It was charter pilots, somewhat different. And he never said all "Yeah, the only time the tanks don't get filled at our place is when charter pilots use our van" So clearly there could be times charter pilots do fill the van. John |

What's next, Jose? Going to recite a Hitler speech? You invoked the law, not I. My point is only that goring somebody's ox is rude, and it doesn't matter what the ox is.
