At one point in that discussion curi says the following, about me:
and then he was hostile to concepts like keeping track of what points he hadn't answered or talking about discussion methodology itself. he was also, like many people, hostile to using references.
I'd just like to say, for the record, that that is not an accurate characterization of my opinion or attitudes, and I do not believe it is an accurate characterization of my words either. What is true is that we'd been talking about various Popperish things, and then curi switched to only wanting to talk about my alleged deficiencies in rational conduct and about his "Paths Forward" methodology. I wasn't interested in discussing those (I've no general objection to talking about discussion methodology, but I didn't want to have that conversation with curi on that occasion) and he wasn't willing to discuss anything else.
I still have no idea what "hostile to using references" is meant to mean.

It means you're unwilling to go to curi's website and read all he has written on the topic when he points you there.
