Default NOMINATION: digest, volume 2453397

The Richard Dawson of Rogers Park pulled a bright blue crayon out of the
box and scribbled this in
:

On Wed, 26 Jan 2005 19:31:23 -0700, Art Deco
scribbled:


[...]

For his continuing cowardice, including context snippage leading to de
facto post editing via "digesting", blatant snipping of links he does
not want publicized, Foamy-style labeling of his nicknames as
"attribution problems," and general running away from the truth of his
kookery, I nominate Dave "Davie Pee Wee Tholenator(tm) the Lame"
Tholen for Coward of the Month, January 2005.

Anyone care to second?

Oh, and continue tholing, Tholenator(tm).


I second the nomination of Tholen for CotM.


Thirded with alacrity.

I predict that he will pretend to be 'above all this' by not responding
except with even more inaccurate and repetitive digests.

I wonder if his students will know about this and his other Usenet honours?
For their sakes, I can only hope that he doesn't conduct his classes with
the same lack of integrity that he shows online.

I have wondered the same myself. If so, having Tholen as an instructor
would bite.

Some time this year I plan on visiting the Big Island. I have toyed
with the idea of looking Davey up and seeing what he's like in RL.
Just to introduce myself, mind you. If he acts funny I leave him the
hell alone. I'm going there to visit a friend and see flowing lava
for the first time in my life. Davey really isn't all that important,
but my friend works at the same university so I wouldn't be
going out of the way.

Indeed. In spite of any professional accomplishments, to have such a

classroom.

Oh, that would make his day -- an Antagonist showing up at his office
door...just to say hi.

If he acts funny I leave him the hell alone.


I am curious about the conversations he would have: are they as dull as
his Usenet posting or is he bolder when he is posting?

I'm going there to visit a friend and see flowing lava

I would like to know if he does actually exist in real life or the quote

That's a great quote. If he isn't the same in RL I would love to

Classic antagonism, as expected from someone who sees through the
Tholenization smoke screens.

We'll see. When I go it will be for the NA World Convention in

friend and the lava. If his office at U of H isn't far from where
Davey has his I'll drop by.

To see which posters are so-called "kookdancers", simply watch which ones
post a response and add a bunch of irrelevant newsgroups to the distribution.
Another good indicator is to note which of those responders follow a person
to one or more of those irrelevant newsgroups and engage in their antagonism
there.
