...actually i thought hermits reply very worthwhile. it serves as a
response template for many similar essays. i've heard many such
speeches...and the only thing one can do is shake ones head in frustration.
now i can whip out hermits very thorough reply and have the other guy spend
his time grokking his falacies, not me. thanks for the tool herr hermit.

[Hermit 2] But why, oh why, did Jonathan Davis see fit to post this lacunic
frothing here?
[Jonathan 3] I posted it because this 1,000 word essay it is sufficiently
interesting to
elicit 3,500 word response from you.
[Hermit 4] Please note that there is a slightly updated version on the BBS
if you choose to cite it.
[Hermit 4] Notice that I responded, not because I saw it as "interesting",
but rather because it captured so many common fallacies in a single basket
that I thought it worth creating a "prototypical response." But please don't
do it again anytime soon. Our archives are replete with similar responses.
Regards
Hermit
