Claimant of Tsarevich Alexei Nicholaevich - Heino Tammet

FA...

obviously, some posters are getting credentialed status confused with offering real historical facts with hysterical meandering...This is really getting stale to most readers in some posters deliberate focusing on the 'big T' issue, and as an adult one would think one would really abide by the center of focus in addressing the subject matter...how many times must posters be looking at this over and over ?  get a grip, or should two slices be provided for those without ? 

Children are still coming to these threads, so kindly think before you post, thank you !

Thanks for another sermon, Tania. That was very nice, although as usual it makes very little sense...

Now... may I be the one to turn off the lights? (But I am sure that's too much to hope for...)   

I am going to allow "the t word" as it is pertinent to discussions about Alexei Nicholievich. It is not being used inappropriately and school students accessing this Forum I trust have proper adult mentors who can answer any questions. Children of today, whether we like it or not, are fairly used to this terminology and worse when in comes to describing this part of the male body.

Children are still coming to these threads, so kindly think before you post, thank you !

As the chief offender, I will desist from further use of "the word".

However, I think the real risk to the "children" who come onto these threads lies in the more-experienced students of history treating these specious claims based on flimsy -- even ludicrous -- evidence as if they merited a serious examination or discussion.

The study of history is not about showing respect to every crackpot theory that comes down the pike.  It's about treating tenable claims seriously, with disciplined examination, and debunking absurd claims for the jokes they are.

So, yes, Tatiana . . . "think before you post".  Children should not be taught that all claims are worth respect just because they were made . . . or that history can best be understood by metaphysical musings and rapturous summonings of idealized images of a past that never actually existed.

History is gritty stuff.  Went it drops you off on Fantasy Island,  it's no longer history.  It's daydreaming with an agenda.

Lisa is quite right, and lets be honest, all the boy users have them, so they should at least already know the word...We did allow the thread about Alexei's condition to stand.

I agree with the FA and Lisa.  It is a medical condition.  If we were discussing other medical conditions such as cancer, AIDS, asthma or the like, there would be no objection.  Yet it should be noted that if the use of derogatory slang terms, which I have fortunately not seen on this forum, would be used in this discussion that would be completely inapropriate.  This would be as inapropriate as using slang or derogatory terms to discuss an illness such as AIDS. 

If the, 'T word', is used in its true form and by not using profane and derogatory slang equivalents, then it is completely acceptable. 

Best Wishes,

Aaron

Hi,
following some mail exchanges with mrs. Romanov and some very easy searchs and correspondence outside Canada....nothing is convincing in her arguments !


prince

How were you able to get her email address? Have you communicated with Mr. Kendrick?

It was rather easy to have her address.on the other hand I 've not been really convinced by Kendricks...





prince

 Alexei Poutziato, Joseph Veres, Heino Tammet, Vassili Filatov...  who's next?

 
   

Mical Goleniewsky & Michael Gray come to mind...

Anyway...all we have until now from JK and Mrs.Brown is words...words...words. Nothing else.

To answer the topic, No.

The story of Tammet is as stupid as the one of Vasily Filatov...Both almost identical !

I was thinking that if anyone has a bigger picture of Heino Tammet? I would really like to see how he looked like because I have seen only one small photo of him and it didn`t give me a general picture of him.
I really don t know why but I see something interesting in this case. I am estonian too so I think it is the answer why this story is quite fascinating to me.
