Achilles
Why should Till waste his time on a pipsqueak like Turkel? Do you use a .458 
Weatherby to hunt squirrels, Jason? 

Even little old me had no difficulty exposing plenty of problems with Turkels 
latest exposition. Maybe you can reply to my postings, and show me up for the 
amateur I know I am? Maybe after you do that Till will have some reason to 
waste his time on Turkel's nonsense. Frankly I am not going to hold my breath. 
If anyone sees a frozen lake of fire let me know...

Achilles
EVEN IF that is true, you still have 4 other sections of my offering, which you 
have yet to even acknowledge receipt of, although most of them were posted 2 
days ago. EVEN IF Turkel's attempt to harmonize that one problem is a success, 
this is far from what you and he must prove to claim victory here.
