And seeing as his Korean is far better than mine, I appreciate comments about the translation. He's done fine by me. <br /><br />You, on the other hand, have been writing incoherent comments and now... name calling?

I see that as your main point, all the while he tries to demean me on this website simply because of who I might be without giving reason or offering his opinion on Matt's main issue.<br /><br />I've asked him whether he's ever spoken positively about teachers -- "if ever?" He simply avoids my question and Matt's main point.<br /><br />Come on Koehler, you suggested I'm not qualified so how is that?

On his blog, he's gone out of his way to give voice to opinions that he doesn't necessarily agree with. <br /><br />Case in point, he posted a very long interview on the English teacher issue I did with ATEK back in Feb. 2009 (with tables and footnotes, which must have taken a lot of effort) at a time when the topic was quite unpopular. Moreover, he told readers that while he didn't necessarily agree with the content that it was "quite interesting, and both the interview and the footnotes are well worth reading."<br />http://www.rjkoehler.com/2009/02/04/atek-interview-with-prof-benjamin-wagner/<br /><br />Can you ask for more than that?<br /><br />Reasonable people differ in their opinions, and those who go out of their way to give voice to opinions they don't necessarily agree with are deserving of respect rather than scorn - in my opinion at least.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12946845.post-19295576876390987782011-02-28T11:16:40.964+09:002011-02-28T11:16:40.964+09:00All I can say, jjj_alltheway, is that I hope and p...All I can say, jjj_alltheway, is that I hope and pray you're not an English teacher.Robert Koehlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05089386197720816858noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12946845.post-21882389650316014872011-02-27T15:35:07.049+09:002011-02-27T15:35:07.049+09:00Koehler,

Are you pretending to care by attempting to correct Matt? Your attempt at correcting Matt has zilch to do with the main point and when was the last time you commented on this blog anyway?<br /><br />Let me point out another thing R. Koehler, even though you started a thread on your blog about the dead english teachers, you've added very little to the point. Instead you think the "pillow as a rail" is somehow important. How the hell is that relevant other than commenting/searching far and wide to response to one unimportant comment that only diverts the attention from the main obvious point. Clearly, you don't want to see the main point. Just face it, you have no problem with the Busan media headlines on dead english teachers.<br /><br />Darth: I suggest you join the S. Korean journalist society with the "degenerate" claim. And, I see you as a simple jump on Robert Koehler's bandwagon. You posted more than once after me and only until R.Koehler said what he did, did you follow up.<br /><br />Peace to those that died and their friends and families.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12946845.post-23834358489744361502011-02-25T18:18:36.008+09:002011-02-25T18:18:36.008+09:00Maybe he is yet another degenerate foreign English...Maybe he is yet another degenerate foreign English teacher with substance abuse problems (the third this week!). <br /><br />It certainly looks like he was drunk when he wrote it.Darth Babaganooshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03292625818454308095noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12946845.post-74245553485993484482011-02-25T16:38:30.272+09:002011-02-25T16:38:30.272+09:00I don't think you're the only person havin...I don't think you're the only person having an off day.matthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10296009437690229938noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12946845.post-60396489390755429512011-02-25T13:29:42.482+09:002011-02-25T13:29:42.482+09:00Matt --- I must be having an off day, because I...Matt --- I must be having an off day, because I've taken a look at jjj_alltheway's comments a couple of times, and still can't figure out what he's talking about.Robert Koehlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05089386197720816858noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12946845.post-74668715830665453982011-02-25T00:16:29.644+09:002011-02-25T00:16:29.644+09:00?
