it just doesn't make a lot of sense to me. It's like you and others are participating in a pissing match, trying to out-do the others with your reasoning and your ability to substantiate our point of view. Seems like, after a while, you'd find it a waste of time. unless, of course, it's just another way to toot your own horns and demonstrate your typing skills....

Well, I'm pretty worthless at pissing matches. I leave those to the ones with the equipment to piss high and far. I always dissolve into puddles, myself. As for my typing skills, well Wolf keeps my ego pretty in line about those. My reasoning? I bet UT has a pithy comment about THAT!

Nah, to tell the truth, the debates around here are pretty clever for the most part, and keep me amused. They also keep me off the streets for which my neighbors are deeply grateful.

Actually, if ZippyT ever makes mention of your ability to type, THEN you have truly been schooled.
