Actually I must have mistyped my response. I meant it as a gesture of friendliness. My apologies.

As for coming out on the bottom of debates, I haven't noticed. Particularly, since I've never seen this as a contest. Strangely, I still see this as awkward attempts to have conversations. When others decide they wish to attack me, the rule I've given myself and stated publicly here, is that I will reply once and then not post to that person again in that sequence. Sometimes I slip up and post too many times.

But given the degeneration of the thread from serious posting to attack mode debates, I certainly wish others would find some way to get out of the attack mode.

But I gather it's not going to happen.
