[QUOTE="BryonD, post: 5611090, member: 957"] I go back and read your post and you were clearly directly responding to me. That isn't to say that the context of the overall thread was not clear and I took it that way at the time. But you made a point of being critical of me for suggesting that something that I very specifically did not suggest. And it was not your agreement or lack thereof that was not relevant, it was your being unimpressed with a fictional position. And trying to put an exclamation point of "both sides" doesn't help when the whole point is that both sides are NOT doing it. (As you seemed to start off admitting with the "I agreed" line.) Ferratus very specifically listed things that we must like, not leaving room for the idea that there may be a completely different experience. He very much did what you are complaining about. But, as you admit, your views are "self selected" into being consistent with his, so you aimed your comments in the direction you would prefer they went, rather than accurately. [/QUOTE]
