Subject: Re: [TCP] quotes misquoted in articles

Ah, in that case the resolution would be clear to me.
Anyone who misquotes or otherwise falsifies another's words in a debate
forfeits the entire arguement on the grounds of "intellectual
sliminess."  And I think that is a good answer to your original question
as well. :)
