Guest Germanboy Posted August 16, 2000 Share Posted August 16, 2000 Is indeed a fraud. I have received the following email from Dr. Marino, the author of the SPR article on H-Net. <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:</font><HR>Originally sent by Dr. Mike Marino: Dear Professor Biermann, That is in fact my article, although I am not the person who is on your newsgroup. As such, whoever posted it has essentially copied it word for word from the H-net website. You might alert your newgroup to this fact. That you for bringing this to my attention and let me know if there is anything else I can do. Mike Marino <HR></BLOCKQUOTE> He is wrong about me being a professor though. I wish. Just remembered the expression for my feelings: 'Es ist mir ein innerer Reichsparteitag.' Sorry, can not be translated. I hate plagiarists.

Moriarty Posted August 16, 2000 Share Posted August 16, 2000 Professor Biermann has such a nice ring to it, nicht wahr?

Lawyer Posted August 16, 2000 Share Posted August 16, 2000 Good work, Andreas. BTW, I saw on your original post that you signed your name "Biermann". Does this really mean BEERMAN in germ-speak? If so, you have a waaay coool name. An unfair advantage, I say. Change your name to Sgt. Schultz to even the odds. Cheers ------------------ You have the right to remain silent.

aka_tom_w Posted August 16, 2000 Share Posted August 16, 2000 You'll notice we have not heard from him since, he probably has a new alias and/or is off spouting the same drivel in some other forum or newsgroup or BBS where he is getting a different or more favourable reaction. I highly doubt he will show up here under the same name again, less being caught in a clear, and now proven, instance of plagarism does not bother this individual. -tom w Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Aitken Posted August 16, 2000 Share Posted August 16, 2000 I am no fool. In fact, I fought in every campaign during the Second World War. On every side. To this end, I fluently speak 38 different languages, and my brain is a veritable technical encyclopaedia of military equipment. Playing Combat Mission yesterday, I was shocked to discover a glaring error in the modelling of the Cromwell Mk.IV. To be specific, the mug holder has been misaligned by nearly 3.8mm. This is utterly ridiculous - the first thing that any tank crew member in the British army learned during this timeframe, was the positioning of the Mk.3a-28s Holder, Mug, Tea. Big Time Software are obviously a motley crew of fly-by-night wannabe amateurs. If they'd spent as long as I have fighting the Japanese in Borneo, they'd have learned some respect for the revered Mk.3a-28s. If this kind of slip-shod rubbish is not corrected in v1.04, I intend to use my significant weight with the world's major governments to put BTS out of business for good. Don't trifle with me - you can only dream about being as intelligent and powerful as I am. Just do as I say, and pray I show you mercy. Sincerely, Field Marshall Sir Davro Ackermann, OBE, BSc, CEng, AAA, FBI, VDU, BBC. ------------------ There's a splinter in your eye, and it reads REACT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aka_tom_w Posted August 16, 2000 Share Posted August 16, 2000 The collective has spoken! We have most clearly and definitively (and well, collectively), turned our back's on this ill mannered and lowly OUTCAST! Do not triffle with the collective on matters of integrity or, more importantly, military history and specifically WW II!

Guest Germanboy Posted August 16, 2000 Share Posted August 16, 2000 A good motto for this forum might be the good old 'Nemo me impune lacessit', which I think means 'You do not provoke me with impunity' or something (not good at Latin). Anyone knows whose it is originally? I forgot, somewhere English, I am sure. In my reply to Dr. Marino I suggested that he should take it up with the relevant authorities at Laval, I am sure they would be happy to hear about it. ------------------ Andreas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisPick Posted August 16, 2000 Share Posted August 16, 2000 Andreas, My latin phrase desk reference (Amo, Amas, Amat and More: Use Latin to your own advantage and to the astonishment of others - Eugene Ehrlich) states: "nemo me impune lacessit" - No-one provokes me with impunity, Motto of Scottish Kings Well, you live and learn! =) Cheers, Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I found him there the night I wrote the email. At least the name bears striking resemblance.

Steve Clark Posted August 16, 2000 Share Posted August 16, 2000 Wow, real life tactics! As I was reading the above, I had two thoughts. First, anyone with Admin privileges on this UBB forum can easily check who is lurking. I'm wondering if this prick is still around? Second, you guys may know of other WW2-related forums and it would be cool to find Skorzeny in them and set up an infiltration to expose him.
