Precisely. And Barry understood what I was saying too, in his earlier post, when it served his purposes. Now it serves his purposes to claim my post was an attempt to distract from the discussion. Well, everyone has the right to change his mind. Would Barry be willing to say he was wrong in his earlier post to consider my post relevant to the discussion? Probably not a good idea to hold one's breath waiting for his answer...
