What I normally do is put "Translation:" before the proposed subtext. In this case I was *adding* something to what Share had said ("Especially when...") rather than supplying subtext for what she had said, so "Translation:" didn't apply. But I knew nobody would think it was something she herself had said, so I just left it in quotes. I should have known she'd try to obfuscate it. > Seems to me fighting fairly means keeping the discussion out in the open. > Private emails, or even the gist of them that leak into the public > discussion, Sal's for example, is more likely to engender reality-obfuscating > as well as mistrust and room to stretch or avoid the truth. > > "I don't see how anybody can ever hope to get anywhere near the larger Truth > if they have no concern for the smaller truths of everyday life, including on > this forum.
