Let me help you out. Instead of having to crawfish and doing it badly
with ad hom you could have bailed yourself out with flying colors,
respect of the readers, respect for yourself, and if it matters, real
respect from me.

Here's how an actual recovery post would have looked.

Kane,

I've taken a look at our exchange over the past 5 days.

It occurs to me that there is a better way to debate the issues.

The first thing I think I better consider is simply admitting the
obvious when it's shown to me, even if I'm wrong.

And when I make a claim I'm determind to see to it that it's based on
fact, especially when it concerns my bias.

I do not have to pretend to be "neutral" to mount a reasonable
argument. Or I could be objective, maybe, and show both sides equally.

Best, Doan

A post like that and I'da been all over myself supporting you.

Notice, other than the mild retort of "crawfish" no blazing blistering
ad homs. I really would like to debate you on facts and logic someday.
But it's looking like it's going to be awhile.

You have so many choices you let slip by.

Someday you'll figger it out.

Kane
