    If my point is that "peal harbor was bombed" and I say it was bombed on Dec 22nd, 1941,  does that invalidate the overall point that Pearl Harbor was bombed?  No, it doesn't.  It just means that I got the date wrong.  It's the 21st, not the 22nd.

    Really?

    Haha,  good on you.  December 7th is correct, and points to you, sir for calling me on it.   The mind was occupied with the meat of that post at the time.

    Confidence is not overconfidence, especially when the truth is spoken.  I freely admit when I'm wrong, as I just did two posts ago.  You can also call me arrogant behind my back on people's walls if you want.  That's classy.  You could also accept the fact that I have a unique perspective, one that EXACTLY one other person has.  I'm not wrong with the larger point this time.

    So you're suddenly Mr. Integrity now?

    You've based your entire argument on a gotcha regarding a trivial detail.  I think that's extremely weak and I know from past experience that you're better, smarter and more capable than that.  Are you saying you're not and I insulted you by implying that you were? If that's what counts as "getting personal" in this NERF society nowadays, well, that's a damn shame.

    After all, Mr. Integrity, there's plenty of code out there for you to rip off of other's websites and call it your own.  Is that personal enough for you?  That was a tough way to learn a lesson about HTML metadata, wasn't it? Oh yeah, I know all about that.  You figure if you're gonna steal someone's code you could at least change the metadata.

    Was that just a one-time thing or do you frequently engage in the online theft of other people's intellectual properly?  Don't poke the bear my friend.  It only turns out well for the bear.

    "You can put a cat in the oven and that don't make it a biscuit..."  ?

    I've not seen that movie in at least a decade.  That's the only line I can remember.

    Nah, this ain't an argument, Don. This is the apple trying to converse with the orange while the bananas watch. :-D

    You're selling yourself short.  Aim high, like plantains. =)

    Ah yes, I remember now.  Alright, let me know when you want to play, or stop by IRC if I'm not showing online.

    Actually it's the frustration of attempting talk to someone who doesn't know half of what you know, and can't prove their point with anything but poor gotchas.  So, you should probably go then.

    Having an NPD attack?  All I need to know is WGT has made many, many errors and never rule them out.  You can't deny that fact.
