Rosenwald Family Responses
I just discovered in my "Other" Facebook message folder these items.
The first is from Alexis Joy Rosenwald, and began on March 26. I just discovered it today, March 31, 2015.
Note: The blank comments toward the bottom are Facebook Emoji which don't transfer over to this transcript. Instead, I have annotated them.

How dare you humiliate someone publicly. You don't know my brother. Back off, scumbag.
Oh, and just so you know. I have every bit of that discussion printed out so I can fax it to the faculty at MIT. Just a heads up

Are you the individual who contacted MIT?
Yup. If you don't stop posting about my brother, I will take this further with the faculty at MIT.
You're one paranoid fuck.
Have you ever been diagnosed with a mental illness? Because you have all the symptoms.
I have this formal diagnosis from Dr. Raphael Isaac Evan who met with clients in Red Bank, NJ.
This is from DSM-3, 1985:
309.28, "Adjustment Reaction with Mixed Emotional Features."
I asked Dr. Evan what that meant in plain English.
He said, "It means you get upset when upsetting things happen."
Well yeah.

I spent the better part of the past 15 or 20 years battling low-grade clinical depression. But my preference was to do the research rather than drink the Nepenthe to drown my sorrows.Then again, my temperament is research-oriented, which I reckon is pretty uncommon in the population at large.Plus I…
How about you, Tina? Do you have a diagnosis to share with me?
This is not about us. It's about you!
Oh, sorry. Alexis Joy, not Tina. My mistake.
LMAO!
It's all about you!
May I quote you on that?
You're paranoid that my brother is using your "knowledge" for his entrance essay into school.
You're so paranoid. You don't see it. You need intensive psychiatric treatment.
GO GET HELP!
Would you do me a favor, Alexis Joy Rosenwald. Would you be kind enough take your materials to the faculty at MIT and ask them to intervene to cure me per your proposed diagnosis?
Like I said, GO GET YOURSELF HELP!
You can take them, for example, to Dr. Sherry Turkle at the MIT Media Lab. She is a gifted sociologist.
Or you can.
How do you know I am not getting myself help? Have I not opened a public conversation, to obtain the guidance and insight of as many intelligent people as I know?
You don't even know my brother. Nor do they. It's not a one way street.
May I ask you a question, Alexis Joy Rosenwald. Did you, in fact take your complaint to MIT? If so, who did you contact, and what did you relate to them?
Is this your paranoia speaking?
Why do you suppose your brother sought me out? Why did he track me on Facebook and then request that I answer his questions? Why me, Alexi Joy Rosenwald? Why did he pick me (and David Saintloth) to contact? Do you have an hypothesis about that?
This is my curiosity speaking. Your brother expressed curiosity. I empathize with curiosity. I am like your brother in that regard. I am very curious to learn things.
For example, I was curious to learn if either of your parents worked at Bell Labs or Bellcore. As you know, Colts Neck is adjacent to Holmdel and Red Bank.
Along with your paranoia that he is stealing your knowledge. Lmao!
It is possible that I worked alongside one of your parents, perhaps?
Why? Perhaps, he is a highly intelligent person with curiosity like you. You just don't know how to handle his questions. Your ego is threatened.
How is that relevant to our conversation?
My brother is a gifted person with an IQ higher than yours. Face it, Barry Kort.
Did you read my assessment where I surmised that your brother was gifted? When it comes to achieving a goal that is meaningful to him, he demonstrated astonishing insight and brilliance.
I have no idea what my IQ is. Do you?
He doesn't need validation from an asshole like you.
Listen, I don't have time for your bullshit.
Alexis, if your theory is correct, how do you account for the fact that I disclosed the entirety of the conversation in which Robert Adam Rosenwald got the best of me?
I have more than enough time to attend to your comments, Alexis Joy, Rosenwald.
I'm really sorry if it did. You need to let go and move on.
I don't have time. You're an annoyance.
I have barely begun to ponder this intriguing puzzle,
If I annoy you, why do you come to me?
Sing the words. It might make you feel better.
I come to you to leave my brother alone.
Enough is enough. I don't want to take this further.
How about an original video, instead. Something like this one, perhaps...

Two spiritual beings have a conversation about being human. Credits: Dialog by Elfreda Pretorius and Barry Kort.
I don't even have time to look at that!
Perhaps your brother has time. Or Tina.
No, just leave them alone. Like I said, I don't want to take this further.
I'm sorry you've been hurt.
LET IT GOOOOO!
What is your theory about how I've been hurt?
I have no idea.
Would you be interested in some ideas?
Nope.
This conversation is ending now. Best of luck to ya, sir!
Pity. But as I see it, everyone has two unalienable God-given rights.
Everyone has an unalienable right to engage in Discovery Learning, and everyone has an unalienable right to remain ignorant.
Everyone gets to choose between those options.

Your brother launched me on a remarkable journey of Discovery Learning, for which I am in his debt. Please convey to him my appreciation for introducing me to a fascinating puzzle.
Please leave me alone. Thank you.
May I point out that you came to me.

Anything else you'd like to share at this juncture, Alexis Joy Rosenwald?
K
K? Just the letter K?
K
What is the significance of the letter 'K' in this context?
K
You seem to be in a loop. Are you in a loop?
K
Seems a little loopy to me. Why are you now in a loop?
K
Golly. Another puzzle. I shall ponder it.
K
I predict the next thing you will post is the letter 'K'. Am I right?
K
Well, I got some confirmation for that hypothesis. As if I had a clue what it means.
K
Come to think of it, I might have a clue. It was something Pixie Zele said: Just nod and smile. Nod and smile.
Let's try that gambit. Nod and smile.

Apparently, you have poor social skills. Don't you get it by now? I want nothing to do with your nonsense. I said what I needed to say. Please respect that.

Rest assured, I am in complete possession of your remarks.
Not only did I regard your remarks, I regarded them with a magnifying glass.

Hey Barry, something about this post bothers me and I'd rather not see it on Facebook. Would you please take it down? You are a cyber bully!!!!!
3/26, 10:46pm
Robert Adam Rosenwald is a person on Facebook who evidently is in the practice of PM'ing scholars to answer his questions and otherwise do his thinking for him.
Herewith is the evidence for that.
Cyber Bully!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Take down the post!

You are publicly humiliating Robert. Take it down! --------------------------------- Barry Kort: What I'm gleaning from this -- and this is just an inchoate working hypothesis at the moment -- is that his feelings of shame are so powerful, they impair his ability to learn, thereby creating a vicious cycle, because he is apparently embarrassed at his failure to make progress in learning. https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=10153229376476967&id=608041966

I have an unalienable right to tell the true story of my own life. And so do you, and so does Alexis Joy, and so does Robert Adam Rosenwald.
Please stop reposting it. It would be gratefully appreciated.
Hi Tina,
I need a reciprocal commitment from you and from Alexis Joy Rosenwald.

Agreed!
Are you amenable to discovering a functional solution to the issues that your brother brought to my attention?
No! I wish no further contact.
Then it's up to you to elect to disconnect from me.
