I found this a fascinating link: http://www.nizkor.org/features/fallacies/
It illustrates a lot of the methods used in arguments that are used here when a heated discussion erupts, as in the recent newsgroup thread. Unfortunately, I see that I have used a couple of the fallacious techniques myself. Still, all in all, I think this is a useful link for people who are interested in "staying honest" when they are debating an issue. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
