But totally hilarious. Most people don't like being told they are wrong, so challenging people to defend their ideas means they'll put more work in to making you understand their idea to try to make you change your mind. The more aggressive your challenge, the effort they'll put in to defence. It's a good way to discuss things with random people and this mailing list does it really well. -- ===================== http://jessta.id.au
