Or you could say that you don't understand the purpose of an analogy. According to the venerable dictionary.com, the first definition of an analogy is: a. Similarity in some respects between things that are otherwise dissimilar. b. A comparison based on such similarity. By its very definition, an analogy will never be exact, and you can pick a good analogy apart by overanalyzing it and trying to be overly specific, usually because you disagree with the point of the analogy and can't find any good way to counter the argument otherwise. -- Eric (the Deacon remix) _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux
