    Platt,
    My Motive ?
    Answers ...

    Oprton (1) I was in playful mood and so were you in our last exchange, and I
    believe many a true word is spoken in jest, so I thought I'd have a little
    harmless fun at your expense - note the :-), hope you'd notice it was
    little, light hearted banter, and feel motivated to respond to the obvious
    point of the mail, and through dialogue add to the sum of knowledge in the
    world, but no ...

    Option (2) Sorry, for "we have" please read "there is".

    Option (3) We is us Brits, and the motive is for us to laud it over you
    Yanks, from our obvious position of superior knowledge on UK national
    tabloid press.

    Option (4) We are a conspiracy of left wing subversives, and our only object
    in life is to wipe out 1950's preacher style conservatism.

    Option (5) We is all the people who believe that Sun = Truth is an axiom,
    and my selfless motive was to make you aware of that absolute truth

    Option (6) We is my patronising royal we, meaning "I" and I have a personal
    hatred for someone called Platt that I've never met.

    Option (7) Please read my mail on my motives, or ....

    Option (8) this is very tedious.

    Platt you are so predictable, you respond the one sentence that attracts a
    smart-ass response, rather than 20 other sentences of sincere thoughts on
    the point in question, written to elicit some progress in getting to the
    source of truth, because as you have made clear quite explicitly, you have
    no interest in promoting MoQ truth, merely finding the lesser of
    establishment evils (sorry, truths) until such time as MoQ might become the
    prevailing meme by some chance of fate or divine intervention.

    Still at least we have "motive" as our subject at last, so you make my point
    for me.
    Thanks for that.

    BTW
    (1) is reality
    (2) is motiveless logic, about as much value as a chocolate fireguard.
    The rest are (not very good) jokes Platt.

    Ian
