  1. Okay I'll make one more try. The outside authority was quoted at me by someone else. I do not hide being an academic, although that often leads to prejudicial abuse, but I wear it lightly because my academic standpoint is that pearls of wisdom are as likely to come from someone who left education with no qualifications as it is to come from someone with a PhD.
  2. I love this topic! I currently live in Shredded Weeds, I think that's a pretty cool name 😆
  3. Someone should make an ad with a massive argument going on in an infohub, or people fighting in a sandbox, with the Jet2 Holiday voiceover
  4. And then maybe my comments are more general than aimed at your post specifically, but I did notice both Chery and Qwiq referring to it in their replies. I honestly think that if our RL has blessed us with the ability to engage in meaningful debate, we should rely on those abilities by themselves. Referencing outside authority - even in good faith, as I’m sure you did - is usually a quick way to shut down the exchange of ideas. Not saying we hadn’t already lost that momentum a few pages back, but I just wanted to clarify where I was coming from.
  5. I could say I don't know how to make this any clearer, but I would be lying and probably accused of false modesty.
