MQ can't see the difference…

I must agree, though I usually like to have a working theory. An “oil company” mentality may mean an inability to parse out different points, or it may mean “defend the gates at all costs.”

I have read may posts in which people claimed that MQ missed the point and/or created a straw-man argument. My earlier theory was that he didn’t bother reading for comprehension, but simply reflexively replied with an older, often-used point, embellished with the phrasing of the week. So functionally, when someone misses the point, the replies can seems like straw-man arguments.

I think Bart’s disengagement policy works best in the long run.

Regards

ElM, I know english isn't your first language, so it's difficult for you, but I have just written a nice lot for you and GPS to try to understand about environmental investment. What do you think of the lead in petrol and brains problem? Dismissive?
