It's not me you were responding to here. But you appear to be falling into a relatively common trap: operating from the assumption that you are entirely correct and that your underlying assumptions are universally true, and that therefore anyone who disagrees with you must not understand what you are saying. I understand what you are claiming. I think most of us do. I simply disagree with some of it and see you as having failed to present a good case for most of the rest. Repeating your unsubstantiated claims - such as the one that you readily admitted was unsubstantiated when I called you on it - is not going to convince anyone of anything, possibly excepting that you have such a weak point that you have to resort to appeals to emotion rather than actual technical arguments to support it. > You are not worth my time. And you're now resorting to...well, it's not a classic ad hominem, but it's pretty close. (It's not any individual that should be "worth [your] time" or not, but rather the arguments presented.) Your arguments are convincing, but what they are convincing me, for one, of is not what you appear to want to convince people of. /~\ The ASCII Mouse \ / Ribbon Campaign X Against HTML mo...@rodents-montreal.org / \ Email! 7D C8 61 52 5D E7 2D 39 4E F1 31 3E E8 B3 27 4B
