I need to know why you now want to communicate privately. You give no
reason.
You wanted me to accept your challenge that Haeckel did not falsify the
embryo data. I did. I stated uneqivocally that Haeckel falsified the
embryo data. Next, you said I lied and I in turn maintained that both
you and Haeckel are the liars. On this disagreement you wanted to wager
$100,000. I accepted and wrote the contract in the form of fair, equal
and decisive escrow instructions with your suggestion about court
trials. You do not want me to escape the consequences of the showdown.
The escrow instructions are written so that neither one of us can escape
the consequences of the showdown.
What more do you want?
In effect, you have the ace, king, queen and jack of diamonds showing
and you maintain that with your hole card you have a royal straight
flush, the unbeatable hand. I say you are a four-flusher and have
nothing. You raised the bet orally to $100,000 and I called by pushing
my money to the center of the table, i.e. offering to put it in escrow.
Now, you don't want to push your money to the center of the table, i.e.
put it in escrow. If you don't, then you have folded and I win.
If you have the 10 of diamonds in the hole, put your 100K in escrow.
You can't lose. On the other hand, if is the deuce of spades, you'd
better fold. Your bluff did not work. I hope this clarifies the
situation for you. Accordingly, I repeat:
