    I know, and despite it being obvious you fell for it.

    Very deep plotting, don't you think?
    I have to entertain myself in the face of entrenched dogmatism: all the more given I suggested the actual topic be the focus but was ignored.

    Now, if you would like to return to the actual topic I promise not to treat you like a cartoon.

    If that is your logic, than noting one's arrogance falls under the same category. As does taking "points" off...

    Nice turn around. I fell for nothing, rather, I pointed out the second instance of hypocrisy on your part.

    As do I. Seeing how only a few responses of this topic, have actually been on topic, I applaud you efforts to continue and steer it back on topic.

    You may treat me how you like or say what you want. It is of no consequence to me. However, it surely does a good job of bringing out certain inherent qualities that you posses.


    EDIT: Whoops Div, I missed your post...
