You assume way too much about my motives here. I have only been trying to bash some meaning out of the all too flaccid prose that's being flung about at the moment. I will often employ counterexamples simply to illustrate points of poor terminology, or sloppy thinking. Its a useful exercise, not a personal attack on beliefs. BTW - I'm with you Brent. Brent is also doing exactly this, sometimes satirically.
