Cory, i doth protest. Arguing with stanc is like wrestling a pig! Responding to his posts, which only serve to show his superior knowledge and intelligence, is futile! He seeks not to advance the conversation or issue at hand, but simply to ARGUE!
Now, stanc.......his comments in those posts were a direct result of your earlier comments which simply took issue with his wording or context or poked at some other minutiae, while providing absolutely no productive discussion or counter points.
I think we've all (mostly) decided that discussion is healthy and being able to make cogent arguments relies on an understanding of the topic, and this is a great way to improve all of that. However, you seem not to want to engage in that, and instead simply be...........argumentative.......at any and every opportunity!
