Say What!!!!

The definition of a "multiple foul" in the rules says that only personal fouls can be part of a multiple foul, not technical fouls.

Incorrect! The rules state that a multiple foul could be an Intentional Foul or a Flagrant Foul. Rule 4-19-3 and 4-19-4 states that an Intentional Foul or a Flagrant foul may be personal or technical. Rule 10-6 Penalties Section 6b. says a Multiple Foul can be Intentional or Flagrant.

If you did call a multiple foul with one of the fouls being a technical foul, then "approximately at the same time" does NOT come into effect because it can't be a multiple foul.

Bullsh!t

You'd screw up the penalties completely too, calling it the way that you suggest. The penalties for the fouls called as part of a multiple foul are completely different than the penalties awarded for a common foul followed by a technical foul. If the player wasn't shooting, then there wouldn't be any FT's if the multiple personal fouls didn't put the team in the bonus.

Damn, you must be having a bad day today. It's okay, we all have bad days. Rule 10-6 Penality Multiple Foul: 6a: says one F/T for each foul when NO TRY (was) INVOLVED. Give it up man, I knew exactly what I was doing when I called the foul, which BYW, I never told you what I did. So how can you say I screwed up the penalities?

One thing's for sure, the multiple foul scenarios are quite complicated. One in which I'm not going into. I'm just going to give out a Technical foul on the dead ball contact if I deem it unnecessary and intentional.
