Before You Start another "IR Vs ARR" Crap Thread..

I guess that most of the IR Vs ARR threads are posted because the person posting it neither understands IR nor ARR as a personality. Even worse, they do not understand that IR & ARR have a mutual respect for each other. Since a good majority of avid ARR supporters are very young, they might not understand IR as a personality. This thread is meant to help you understand IR better. The following is an interview by IR in a magazine KALKI...Thanks for SATHYA KEERTHI, a member of TFM who translated this interview...

  'whynot' this & 'whynot' that? Can u specify what u exactly meant by that?
  
  
• From: WhyNot (@ 203.24.100.132) on: Thu Mar 14 08:46:39 EST 2002
  
  u know wat, i dont give a damn anymore.
  I think u know wat i'm talking abt and if u want to feign ignorance, then so be it.
  
  
• From: twilight_zone (@ 202.88.152.159) on: Thu Mar 14 08:50:57 EST 2002
  
  feign ignorance? why wud i do that? I wish u spell out what exactly u meant by "whynot this & whynot that".
  
  
• From: WhyNot (@ 203.24.100.132) on: Thu Mar 14 08:59:00 EST 2002
  
  Oh u really want to know the answer to that?
  Go and get out all the posts u wrote jus today and yesterday and count the number of times u mentioned 'whynot' even when u were not addressing me. In fact, u even mentioned 'whynot' in a new thread which I hadn't posted anything on yet. Tat is exactly wat I mean by 'whynot' this and 'whynot' that.
  
  
• From: twilight_zone (@ 202.88.152.159) on: Thu Mar 14 09:02:56 EST 2002
  
  why, is your name "whynot" patented? As u said, this is a public forum, and i was just giving my opinions, or as you said, "thinking loud". Why shud that bother you?
  
  
• From: WhyNot (@ 203.24.100.132) on: Thu Mar 14 09:09:31 EST 2002
  
  It doesnt bother me twilight_zone. I was also wondering why ud wanna mention 'whynot' several times a day if were in fact so bored as to be yawning so many times. dont u ignore something when ur bored by it? Why wud u keep talking abt it day in and day out? 'whynot's generalisation campaign', 'whynot's generalisation campaign'......... YAWN!!!!!
  
  
• From: twilight_zone (@ 202.88.152.159) on: Thu Mar 14 09:14:15 EST 2002
  
  I have every right to opine about a thing even if it were "boring". Don't I? You don't have high opinions of IR, but don't u talk abt him day in & day out, albeit negatively ?
