Again I ask you to retract your wild and clearly incorrect accusation
"There is no URL in existence, and you made the post up just to
denigrate an institution you know absolutely nothing about (and
cannot
even distinguish from Ohio  University). You are, pure and simple, a
bare faced liar. Case proven and closed".

There is a URL in existence, I did not make the post up and clearly
you do not have the integrity to correct yet another wild accusation.
If you where the associate dean in any university this would be more
of a slur on that institution than I ever could even if I wanted to.

I find it really amusing that your quoting from a website that you
yourself claimed was a "totally worthless chat forum".  So tell me
what is it a totally worthless chat forum or not?

Though this is just another example of trying to avoid correcting yet
another wild incorrect accusation based on nohing but assumption.

Who said Marty has a web site. What makes you think I would give you
his contact details when I will not give you my own!

Who makes a wager without defining any winning conditions, something
pointed out by me a while ago. Its clear you cannot even prove your
identity never mind anything else so to make a wager that depends on
it was foolish.

I have now shown you making spelling errors and making wild
accusations about grammar that are simply incorrect. Clearly you are
no expert on grammar. I have also shown the length you are willing to
go to save what little credibility you have left, from childish name
calling, racial insults to thinly veiled threats.  You do not even
have the integrity to retract wild accusations that you made which
have now been proven wrong.

If "Marty" was a solicitor of anything other than the local bar, he 
would have a business connected web site. Apparently he doesn't, ergo I 
propose that he is not, therefore, a "solicitor". Prove me wrong.

What has this to do with anything? we are talking about your reiterated

Nice try to move the goal posts again. It just doesn't work, I'm afraid. 
So, pay up, or retract. 

End of story.
