Huh? Looked to me more like a criticism of his method of argument, and advice on how to look better in the future. Information on how David perceives John. Very useful if John wants to be perceived by David differently. I'm not seeing how David's paragraph above constitutes or contains an ad hominem attack. Julia Then again, I'm having a bad week and am short on sleep -- maybe you could spell it out for me? _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
