Yes, you are correct, Wolfgang. I did ask that question and it was answered. (Carol)

It is worse than that, I was wrong. I couldn't believe you had lost track of your own questions and were repeatedly not reading DH's posts carefully. I rather thought it had something to do with the exact wording (like for instance "caught by the police while in the process of distributing" when, perhaps, DH was observed distributing and caught later) and DH was evasive and I just didn't get it.

Of course, DH is evasive and carefully considers what he answers to or not and which way he answers. I regret that the reaction (not only of Carol) to him and the silly procession of "constantly changing" questions makes him look better in this debate than he deserves. Ignoring him would have been better in my eyes than what I have read.

But perhaps his debating skills are not as good as they sometimes look in this particular context, otherwise he could have truthfully answered with a resounding "No" to Carol's question

Were you charged with having been caught in the process of distributing those leaflets, David?
