    Poot,

    I know exactly what you mean ...
    You said "I feel that if I can not somehow shed light into the mind of
    Platt, then I will forever be barred from making progress ... I can never
    build an argument concise enough to infaliibly prove my point"
    Problem is "infallible" arguments depend on logic and absolutes, anything
    which doesn't is fair game for that skeptic Ant was referring to.

    ie Nothing personal Platt, but you personify a challenge to the intellect
    that seems to frustrate.
    Despite the fact few seem to share any value in your opinion, it seems
    necessary to argue against it.
    That damn catch-22.

    Ian
