David, I apologize.  I thought English was your native language and that my 
writing was simple and clear.

Apparently you have confused my comment about the information content of 
your own statement with a non-existent comment about factual matters 
pertaining to NeuLevel's delay.

"Nothing at all" pertains to your information -- that is, to your lack of 
it -- not to NeuLevel's situation.

You stated you had no information.  Hence your statements were quite simply 
nothing other than baseless conjecture.  Among friends having a casual 
discussion, that sort of comment would be fine.  In a formal forum that is 
supposed to be doing constructive work, it is at best irresponsible.

Ahhh.  Thank you.  This highlights the problem very nicely.  You apparently 
do not have much experience doing testing and even less experience with 
aggressive deadlines.

Yes, I disagree.

To provide a simple example of the deficiency in your view, I will suggest 
that you plan for every possible thing that will happen tomorrow.  You are 
allowed to have no surprises.  None.  You have lived for years, so of 
course you know what will happen tomorrow.  Right?

Another error, this time with logic.

You do not get to make baseless claims and then lay out a challenge for 
someone to prove you wrong.  The usual example to demonstrate this problem 
is to challenge you to prove that you do not beat your spouse.  (Remember 
that getting your spouse to state that you do not beat them is not proof, 
since you might have coerced them.)

When making a claim, the burden of responsibility is on the person making 
the claim.

In other words, you.
