Hi all,
someone said:
So, unless you want to go around again on this subject, our positions seem
reasonably clear. That we disagree on some aspects is OK because as Sam
reminds us, either one or both of us might be wrong. :-)
msh 7-31-05:
Or, more likely, one is right. And the one who isn't right,
uninterested in re-shaping his rationally debunked opinion, just
wants the discussion to end. Anyone who says "Let's agree to
disagree" is really just asking to be allowed his fallacious opinion
because he really, really wants to cling to it.
I play a lot of online chess. One of the things required is that all
players must agree that a disconnect equals a loss. It's obvious to
me that a plea to "Agree to disagree" is just a way of disconnecting.
Anyone agree? Or, should we agree to disagree?
Best to all,
Mark Steven Heyman (msh)
