You may be older Falstaff, but I doubt it. If you are you certainly haven't learned much in all your years. Tell you what lets readdress this when you and sim are alittle older, to see if the sim has learned to crawl and you've matured.

David..no, you're looking for an argument, as always. Or even better, a question to which there may not be a simple answer, or one which will never be in the public domain. Which suits you down to the ground. ideal. Carry on grand-standing and tub-thumping. So what have you won preciesly? Slightly lower self-esteem, when the mist clears?

I haven't won anything yet. If someone answers maybe I'll understand the point of this argument.

Chivas,

As I said, the patronising thing isn't going to work. Do you have a new tack I should look out for? (when you're not sooth-saying the inner workings of a dev house to which you have no link whatsoever, according to...umm, you).

All the 'probably's and 'will's and any other modal verbs you can lay your hands on are not going to put you any closer to that dev house, or to knowing its workings or history. It is all sophistry and speculation, or charlatanry, you decide...

Ben

Dont be so modest. You have won lots of minor semantic skirmishes, bless you. Why, you have ridiculed several posters (not posting in their native language) and logically corrected a veritable plethera of needy citizens.

No, you're right, you haven't, not a one (at least against a native English speaker). But you would dearly love to. And you have offered nothing substantive either.

>>If someone answers maybe I'll understand the point of this argument. <<

I highly doubt it. That is not your aim in any case, as other posts have made very clear.

Your aim thus far is be nasty and appear superior. You may have succeeded in the first. And what a glowing achievement that is.

Read it again Falstaff.

"Let me make this real simple for you Falstaff. When you look at a healthy baby you don't see something that can't talk, walk, or run. As you get older and wiser Falstaff, you will learn there is a good possibility that the baby will grow up to be able to talk, walk, and run. Of course alot of things can go wrong in the process and it won't work out, but I think you may start to understand. Give it time, let it sink in."

I don't want to get in a tussle with anyone here (it's more fun to stand on the sidelines pointing and laughing) but if it's something that this forum has taught me it's that age has nothing to do with being mature. This is not pointed at anyone in particular, now carry on.....

Chivas: no, niet, nada, nein. Once was enough.

But you do prove one hting: most of your posts are the same

(And you need to work harder on the colloquial tone for the put-down. Aim for rmatey-ness. Knowingness is hit-and-miss.)

Go for it, son.
