If I thought you were just being deliberately difficult or nuts, I'd ignore you--I don't think those things.

So, for example, how would you reply to F+B's question? I read your post, it's practically a non-sequitor.

This is the main problem I have with arguing with Merc. It's like trying to plait fog.
