if you cant respond in a relevent way to the post. take your DMB hate some place else
I don't remember you or Steve mentioning anything about the terms or meanings in a philosophical context at all either You claim not to care yet continue to post hate regardless and Steve claims that it is a meaningless topic of discussion, similar to locke.
