I seem to remember you calling out Lanny for using the ad hominem attack in the thread about the 'Great Global Warming Swindle' thread. And a quick search, shows this is true. Both quotes below are from you.

Lanny I did attack the gist of your post. The one I responded to. You list their affiliation with big oil and concluded that their ideas are false by association. Ad hominem - the attack on the person and not his ideas. Pure Lanny. You do it all the time. I just pointed it out....again.

Lanny when faced with opposition pulls out the ad hominem attack to defend whatever position he stands on. Those people's work and thoughts are wrong by their association with this or that group. I quoted the message where he blatantly does so.

Perhaps if your an opponent of the ad hominem attack, you should refrain from using it yourself.
