"argumentum ad hominem abusive"

I apologise if i spelt it incorrectly.
When i was studying many many years ago, we learnt about fallacious arguments.
I think there was 8 or 10 of these "fallacious arguments".
The only one I can remember was the one above.
It was based on the fact that when someone cannot mount a constructive argument, then they attack the person.
You are spot on B/boy in your comment.

When I raised the issue of the BPT trading and the BPT conflict of interest, I was criticised as being "rediculous" and wearing a "tin hat".

I think all DLS s/h should have had an interest in what BPT was doing, whether it was legal, but also whether it was appropriate given BPT's position as Operator. I think my concerns were vindicated by the BPT response to the enquiries made by the media.

I enjoy reading other people's opinions, because I do learn a lot on HC, and there are plenty of oilers and miners who post on HC who seem to know their stuff.

cheers
