I checked back to the first few exchanges. It is true that "numerous" was a mistake (probably an honest one); multiple was fair enough; and, although there is no "ethical difference" in your quote, you have made so much out of quoting accurately, I thought it was a fair shot Indeed, I positively enjoyed this:
Now, let me do an E here and go on and on about it the way you love to do....LOL
Did you falsely quote that phrase from me on purpose in order to perpetuate a lie? Or did you simply become confused while answering my posts and missed the fact that it came from different sentences of a post. Because, when you quote someone, that means they said it, in that exact way.
Was it your intention to mislead those reading this thread that I actually quoted that phrase?
Really E, I want to know this, others might want to know also.
Can you understand how quoting a phrase from someone when they've never spoken it, can lead to all kinds of false images? Or, do you believe misquoting someone is ok, as long as the words are contained within the quote? Really, which is it E? Is misquoting someone ok in your mind as a technique to be used in a disagreement. Because, if misquoting someone is ok. I could simply find two words contained in your post and then put them together to mean anything and everything.
Shall we all do this E? Shall we all just make up phrases from two seperately spoken words of a post, and then argue about the merits of the phrase.
hmm, that could lead to all kinds of interesting dialogues. Let's see if I can find a few words in your last post and put them together in a quote the way you did.....
