Moby Dick, once you accepted Rojo's concession, that should have been the end of it. Your contributions were appreciated regardless of your credentials, sources and methods.
Now you're gloating... a bit.
Just sayin'
I disagree! I was hoping to come across more as "playful", hopefully I didn't offend anyone.
Man, you are throwing a hissy fit because Rojo does not believe you. Who gives a duck.
Yes, Rojo does not understand IP addresses. I'm in San Diego right now. However, my IP address will tell him I'm in the Bay Area, cuz that's where our corporate headquarters are.
You don't understand that the photo does not prove you were in New Haven. It could be photoshopped.
Still, I don't doubt you were there - why would someone lie about it. Well, maybe someone who throws a hissy fit about something so trivial might. I do, though, tend to believe you and Rojo should stop relying on IP addresses. Sometimes they pinpoint your location. Sometimes they do not.
Quit teasing, pics of the boots or shut up!
Ok. Now that I've read the whole thread, maybe it was not a hissy fit, but it sure started out sounding like it.
In the end, it was pretty funny!! Hissy or not.

It wasn't a hissy fit, and hopefully Rojo also had some fun with it as I did.

Don't be so sure about your understanding of IP addresses. It's a little bit more complicated than that.

Did this ever happen? The recent activity list on Gabe' fundraising page doesn't show any donations on behalf of Moby Dick.

I covered the 20k yesterday with BOOTS ON THE FREAKING GROUND
I'm glad you caught Rojo being, well, Rojo. But, dang, I wish you would stop going on about "boots on the ground." It really is cringe worthy to see you double down on something really doesn't apply, Having boots on the ground means having soldiers there. It does not mean that personally were/are there. Plus, everyone else who talks about having boots on the ground uses it to talk about combat troops in harms way, not civvies going to races.
So unless you want to come across as that clueless high school teacher who everyone laughs at, I'd stop with the "boots on the ground" nonsense.

Clearly you don't know your LRC history. Check out the Robert Young thread, it's a classic.
