    Explaining the need for precision in language is like explaining a joke to someone who doesn't understand why it's funny. If you have to ask, don't bother. Remember grasshopper, wisdom is not a flower to be plucked, it is a mountain to be climbed.

    :lol:

    The irony is priceless...

    Dude, one of the many things I do is go back and fourth on legal opinions (usually refining them for law firms), proving ideas/concepts/theories within... eh, forget it, there are certain times highly precise "technical" writing is appropriate. Excluding highly technical issues, all these so called "problems" with our language is what makes us human, not machines, or talk like dry sentences from the tax code... So spare me your dollar store wisdom, sheesh, you could have AT LEAST been a BIT creative and said something like, "Wisdom is not a liberal to be silenced, but rather a force to be overthrown..." :lol:

    ;)

    You're arguing for the right to be stupid. A lot of Americans do that all the time which is yet another reason, of many, why the rest of the world laughs at us. Being stupid is not a right that is worth fighting for.
