Sez Barry, cleverly ignoring the fact that I was talking about a record of words on a page that anyone can read, not an individual POV or opinion. Or does Barry want to claim that the record of words on a page does not represent what the posters' fingers typed on their keyboard? And of course Curtis and Barry both, when it served their self-interest, have insisted that similar records of words on a page represent what actually happened. (Except that Barry has been known to lie about what's on the record.)
