Thread Name: BS: How to have a civil debate
Subject: RE: BS: How to have a civil debate
Actually, when I come to think of it, one of the irritating aspects of some of our debates is misrepresentation. When you have to waste time trying to tell the forum that what has been said about you, or about what you've said, is off-beam, it can be very annoying. Sometimes it looks like a deliberate wind-up. You have just done this to me, Keith, haven't you, so I've just had to waste posting time putting you right, not for the first time. I'd rather post just giving my opinions, but people like you often get in the way by forcing this distraction on us. Says a lot about your intellect and about your motives, it does, one could surmise. It wouldn't be half so bad were my English poor or full of long and difficult words, but I don't think I'm too bad in that regard.
