What a delightfully witty thing for you to have misquoted, Brian. > Really lends point to your comments about psuedo-education, doesn't it? It's also interesting that this is the only point of my posting you were able find fault in. I had asked if the flat-Earthers were capable of presenting documentable evidence supporting their position, rather than attacking insignificant statements made by the round-Earthers. I guess you aren't. Also, I never claimed it was a quote, you did. I also didn't claim to be educated in liberal arts, English lit., philosophy, etc. So a little slip like that doesn't really bother me. > Cheers, > Ed > .
