[Tsuwabuki]

solemnclockwork,

Tell you what, give me two days, and I'll try to construct something. I'm leaving for America soon, and I really need to make sure my ducks are in a row, so I'm sorry, but I do not have time to write a huge essay of a response tonight. I assume I won't have internet for the 18 hours I'm on the plane, and I will want to sleep when I get to Texas.

Give me two days, my parents have broadband, I will go back and structure a response. However, I think you're taking this far too personally, I think you're projecting emotional content into my posts that simply isn't there, and I think that you need to quote everyone you respond to, not just me. It's hard for everyone to follow. There are certain academic standards to be met in a debate in order to act dispassionately. I do not believe you are meeting those standards. As a philosopher, I am intimately familiar with those standards, and thus I have the credibility to say that you are not following them. There is nothing unusual about this.
