David Cole’s “Banned” 1994 IHR Conference Speech!

...well, “banned” is maybe not the best word. The IHR decided not to use the speech because it was too loose and anecdotal to make a good printed essay for the journal. But also, more importantly, Mark Weber was still holding out hope that weaselly dirtbag Dr. Michael Shermer could be convinced to be publicly honest about his views regarding revisionism. Of course, Mark, like me, like everyone, learned the hazards of trusting that sweaty, shifty little lump of mediocrity. But in ’94, I was the only one sounding the alarm. And indeed, I was harsh in my speech, taking no prisoners. So Mark, always the very picture of discretion, decided to withhold publication or promotion of it.

Interestingly, had Shermer not foolishly written about the speech later that year, he might have been able to sue me or my publisher in 2014. Read about THAT escapade here: http://www.countercontempt.com/archives/5232
