Do you see anything in that long ramble disowning the questions themselves, Ogg? I didn't, and it would influence my thinking about the study if it's there in one of those posts.
Not that my thinking matters, of course. Which is another point. This guy seems to be taking this entirely too seriously.
1) The student’s postings were bothersome on all accounts. I apologize if that did not come across strongly enough.
2) My reply was long winded because part of the student’s punishment was to write it up from a tape recorded monologue. One hour of talking equals four hours of typing.
3) The goal of the research was to study the stories, not the writers. If its ok with Brablethorn, I will email him/her the powerpoint presentation so he/she can share it with whoever wants it. You can also get it from me if you want at xxx Hopefully, you will find the methodology sound. I believe a sample 800 of stories, which is rather large for a content analysis is large enough to draw valid conclusions. However, any suggestions to improve the methodology are welcome.
4) If anyone cares to read them, I will also forward the final manuscripts to Brablethorn or anyone else once they are written. Personally, I think reading your stories is time better spent.
5) No tax payers dollars went toward the research, everyone volunteered to do the research.
You spelled Bramblethorn's name wrong.
No offense meant.
Speaking of perspective, he isn't exactly academically distant from any partisan perspective in what he's given us here. He's so "on our side" (not that we have a collective side) that he, again, doesn't sound academic and gives me the impression of just saying what he thinks we want to hear--with what he gives us being far, far more than I care to hear about his project.

If you want an unbiased academic, you'll be waiting a long time.
