But that's not what you do...dude. I brought up a subject (not a point). You didn't respond to that subject at all. Rather, you started another subject and hoped I wouldn't notice that you changed the subject. That's just a recipe for people talking past each other.

Add facts yes. Change the topic in midstream...you're kidding right? That's a formula for never agreeing on anything. If you can't stay on topic, you're not conversing.

Well, now you're just hysterical. Suspend your account? Who the heck ever advocated that? Don't be such a daisy.
