But, hey, I'm willing to use Landis' Wiki Defense, and let others weigh in on the issue. If anyone is still reading this Thread That Won't Die
, and cares to read the last couple of pages in the link you've posted, please tell us whether or not you think I was a "liar". I throw myself upon the collective opinion of BF, and will accept their judgment in this matter.
FWIW, if the judgment determines that I'm not a liar, that would make you a "slanderer".

Fortunately, it is easy enough to test this for yourself.
To which you claimed: "I have tested
this for myself, ..."
That is the alleged lie.
When I asked you to clarify what you were referring to by "this", you dodged the question without answering it in
#273.

Please define "this".
I didn't ask you to define this, I wanted you to clarify whether you were referring to "riding up ahead in motorist's paths and observing their behavior in a mirror", which is the only reasonable reference you could have been making.
When pressed by JJ and myself on this issue, you never gave any indication whatsoever to back up your claim that you actually did test "this".
The only reasonable conclusion is that if you had tested "this", you'd be able to answer at least some of the questions that we asked, instead of dodging. It is therefore reasonable to conclude that you lied.
