<DIV><FONT size=4>Keely, Ellen,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=4></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=4>With all due respect, we a small disagreement.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=4></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=4>First of all, I agree that it is unkind/unacceptable to make
derogatory comments about appearance aspects in many cases: race, ethnic
origin/appearance, gender preference/style, height, unregulatable weight,
etc.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=4></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=4>However, there are certain appearance items that are
suggestive but not confirmatory of certain other traits. Without wanting
to start a major slugfest (but it probably will), I'll give an
example.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=4></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=4>When I worked as a consultant, some of my advice was sought
and taken on potential management, technical, and executive hires.
During the screening process it sometime happened that an
applicant exhibited a red nose and cheeks -- broken and/or barely subdermal
capillaries. There can be many causes of this. However, when you are
hiring a high salaried person from whom diligence and production is needed and
expected, there are two conditions that can cause this condition for which more
information is needed in the evaluation of the candidate:
excessively elevated or prolonged high blood pressure or a alcohol abuse
problem.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=4></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=4>In either case a need arises from the initial observation for
more information to assist in determining the risk/reward of hiring the
applicant. It would be foolish to hire a person with a long standing
drinking problem unless there was evidence that this condition did not affect
his past work performance and would not affect his future work
performance. Similarly, a person with a history of high blood pressure is
probably not going to be a good candidate for a high stress level position --
either from their or the company's perspective.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=4></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=4>Appearance does matter as a suggestion of other traits.
It is not determinative alone, but it raises questions that in certain
situations need to be answered by further query.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=4></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=4>Using your imagination and experience, I am sure you can think
of other physical appearances including dress, hair style, hygiene, etc that are
similarly suggestive.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=4></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=4>In my experience, men with extreme comb-overs are often, but
not always, vainglorious, and with other traits that accompany vaingloriousness
including dishonesty about things of importance to them.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=4></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=4>In the case of Dale Courtney we have lots of other information
upon which to base an assessment of the traits suggested by his hair
style: The tendencies in his web-blots, for example, to play fast and
loose with the truth whenever something seems to reflect badly upon something
that he is identified with.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=4></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=4>Rose Huskey pointed this out at the beginning of this thread
about his attempt to whitewash the unchristian discrimination against those with
learning disabilities at Logos School. He often incompletely (with malice)
and sometimes out of context (with malice) quotes/mischaracterizes those whom he
attacks in his web-blots. His pseudo-libertarianism is obvious --
pretending to believe in personal liberty while being the lay mouthpiece for the
CCC, an organization that is a grave threat to civil liberties to people on the
Palouse.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=4></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=4>Hence, Courtney's extreme comb-over is both a symptom and a
part of his vaingloriousness -- a trait he shares with his Cultmaster --
and all that goes with it. <STRONG><FONT color=#ff0000>Hence, as far as I
am concerned, his comb-over and that of which it is a symptom is fair
game.</FONT></STRONG> [There are other games afoot that also make it fair
game. Some V 2020ers are aware of some of these.]</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=4></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=4>I doubt that we will come to any agreement about the
appropriateness of bashing Courtney's falsies. Such is the nature of
things at this time . However, I will refrain from lampooning Courtney
further with the famous lines from a W. C. Fields movie uttered in all innocence
by a young boy: "Look, Ma. At the size that man's nose. If it
was full of nickels, he'd be rich."</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=4></FONT> </DIV>
