This is bizarre, but let's not push the point.

Please provide pointers if you can. Speaking of substantiation,
Shrisha Rao, for example, has provided us with specific instances
where Prabhupada introduces his own ideas into his "BG As It Is."
That controverts your claim about Prabhupada's work being completely
faithful.
But if you're too busy to back up your claims, we'll understand hehehehehe.

I always do.
You need to get this right, Tandy: You made the claim of the dubiety
of other Geetas. When pressed for even a hint of evidence you turn
around do a verbose hula-hoo and say that the burden of proof is on me,
for an issue that is peripheral, viz., my comment about ISKCON-blather.
It'll take you a while (until your next post, I mean) to surpass your
current asininity.
