I was meaning that I'm not gonna argue on this late at night! in other words,
I think hat, but I can change opinion easily! (yes, this is not generaly not
good, but I call this flexibility, just to make myself happy. biased? who
is not?)

sure, but if the word "never" may no more be used in a given sense, then
let's forget
about that original sense and use it in a new one, ... and so on :-)

I understand that this word is "hard" to define. I was hoping that it is
understood.
now that you reacted, my understanding of this word is something like "is
rational
what can be agred upon using logic", but this cannot be a definition, as it
is itlself
subject to interpretation. however, I am sure you see what I mean.

if you have not patented these opinions, then you can't claim they're yours!
or you can claim, but anyone may take'em.
cheers,
