No. You are right. I don't expect it; however, he/she must consider it even if the choice is made to ignore me.

Praytell, what does it mean to be adequately opposed? I am opposed to hair weaves. People still get hair weaves. I doubt saying I'm 'adequately' opposed to hair weaves will change the frequency of people getting hair weaves or significantly enhance my opposition. What's the purpose of the 'adequate' qualifier? You can't say, can you?
It's like American football announcers using the term 'differential' instead of saying difference.

Precisely. This goes back to my question to Vinny (troll or not)...says who?
