OGKingsBounty92,

Before you get into a big rant like that, you really should check to see if you are actually right. Iron is, as you correctly pointed out, an element, and yes steel is an alloy. However, I'm pretty sure (though your terrible grammar and clearly low level of intelligence make you difficult to understand) that you just went on a long rant about how steel was never used for the things that Stegsongrapes suggested they were. Too bad it was. Steel is an alloy, made mostly of iron (gasp!) with a small amount of carbon as well. This made it stronger and easier to work with compared to iron. Meaning that it is perfectly reasonable that the pickaxe head would be made of steel rather than iron, and as for lances, they always have metal tips on them (otherwise they would be useless against anyone with armour) and that metal would be steel, since it is stronger and easier to work with than iron.

The only good point of your argument is the comment about yams in his ears. That made me laugh. Too bad the rest was a combo of stupidity, groundless insults, and general incoherence.
