New Re: Now we know
And, of course, you never are.

How about the rest of that sentance you quoted?

Not when I'm arguing with people who are mangling the usage of words to be "right", no.

Nah, its more fun to pull words and put things in people's mouths, than to actually bother to think.

New Just going by history
You have never once in all the years I have followed this group, ever admitted to being wrong about anything. And you accuse me of not thinking.

Irony is so...... ironic.

New I suggest you repeat History, you've forgotten it.

Not reading perhaps.

Admitted I was wrong on many an occasion. Of course, I didn't do that just because someone decided to redefine something that's been well defined in the course of my studies. Did it because they proved me well wrong.

Last time Bryce said that, BTW, I'd admitted that twice in the same week - in the thread he was posting in. (not to him, to someone else)

Drat. Not more of those blasted facts.

Further proof is left as an exercise to the student. (And unlike some discussions, it does exist, so its not asking you to prove a negative).

Of course.. then you'd have to admit that you... what was that about irony?

Addison
New Sorry dude, you just rub me the wrong way
Facts is facts I guess. I don't remember the occasion of you saying you were wrong. That certainly doesn't mean it didn't happen, just don't remember it. I'd say I agree with you about half the time, but the manner and tone of your arguments stick in may craw. So, even when I agree with your position, I find myself disagreeing with your personality (for lack of a better word). I'll try to keep the heat down but I can't promise I will always be succesful.
