[QUOTE="David Argall, post: 449914, member: 4481"] [b]translations[/b] "you lack any genuine understanding on either issue. Your responses are very similar to the kinds of lame excuses and lies " I routinely translate such comments to mean "I have the inferior case, so I am going to retreat into meaningless name calling rather than confess I am wrong." -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [Funny, I routinely translate them to, "I have personal experience in a field you've claimed to have none, but refuse to listen anyway."] A distinctly dubious translation a] Little or no claim of personal experience was made by either party, merely a charge that one lacked personal experience. The implication that the other had any such experience is certainly wrong on some points, and probably wrong on all. b] Any such personal experience is of dubious value. Note here that we disqualify jurrors and judges who have personal experiences with the issue before them. Since our subjects of debate can involve millions of personal experiences, our own personal experiences are easily able to blind us to the facts, and we consider our one personal case as more important than the million cases of other people.
