Ah.
   You know, the difficulty of arguing via email is that not only does time
pass between volleys, but that others interject new points, and the tangents
change. We started on the nature of the English language, then to the nature
of an argument, to the definition of a contradiction. If we had reversed the
last two, we would have followed the same progression as a rather famous
Monty Python skit.
