Thread Name: BS: effective arguments
Subject: RE: BS: effective arguments
I have also posted links many times to pages that list the logical fallacies, typically when someone gets way too wound up in a stupid argument. We have some major architects of straw men around here, and pointing out what they're doing by linking to it is sometimes easier than trying to spell it out myself if I've been participating in the squabble.

I like reading Bill D's arguments also. I didn't study as much philosophy as he did, but I like seeing it put to good use.
