<defend your own methods> I offered no methods which I am in need of defending -- my position is crystal clear. Inflation is about persistent increases in prices. Deflation is about persistent decreases in prices. Your position is like one layers of fudge wrapped in smoke and displayed with mirrors. You can add as many more layers of fudge as you like -- you can debate yourself about one form of measure versus another all you like -- but you will not obscure the fact that you are profoundly confused as the most basic meaning of the word "inflation". So long as you don't know what inflation is in the first place, there is no sense in discussions of how best to measure inflation.
