RE: How does one respond to this argument?It's long but an interesting read. Thanks :)
I knew I shouldn't have posted looking for assistance on this forum site. I knew chad would come along and say something demeaning and derogatory and I'd bet this GC fellow will be along any minute. No disrespect to RobValue as he seems to know his stuff. I have to say and they will want me to say this, but I think It has to be said, I feel right now unpleasantly satisfied (that sort of feeling one gets after being bullied somewhat) it may be because of a feeling of defeat, of which I don't think so, or it may be the sly digs at me from the other side when I am asking for help or it may be I don't know where to begin (I feel like I can argue for my position just confused) or it can be a combination of all. I feel like I just want to give up and don't answer at all but I never back down. Ah shit I just don't know.

At a quick glance he's trying to "win the argument" rather than actually make any valid points. Which is pretty standard.

Thanks, that would be a great help. Yea I wouldn't mind being at a intellectual stalemate than winning though winning is fun, when it happens and so is having an intellectual conversation with both valid points. I have to finish my work and i will probably be back on in a few hours Smile
