"CJ would just pull out a pocket dictionary and show you what the meaning of the word "is" is."

Only if I was convinced the other was centering their whole argument on a neo definition of it...

Of course, you would see that as "nuance".

Tench: and that is why you are wrong.

Me: Now wait a minute. You have used the words wrong and since your conclusion depends on those definitions, your argument is garbage.

Tench: Oh, trying to nuance your way out of it?

Crickets chirping...

Me: do you know what nuance means?

if ted's surrounded by his students, it could explain his public posting "signature" here. I doubt he's ever confronted in class with an objection to something he's said.

if you can't support your position with relevant data, or you avoid having your bluff called at all costs, I would propose your position is no stronger than a house of cards.
