Of the very few topics I consider myself an ultimate authority on, my own mental state and intent is a prime instance. I may not have communicated effectively. And in discussion with you it seems I'll never be able to. But I know what I intended to communicate, and have stated what that is, repeatedly. You seem bent on steering the conversation to what you wanted to hear me say. Which seems to be a premise founded on precisely the weak foundation you criticise me for. Really, we're done here, Christian.

If anyone who seems bent here, it's you: Bent on dictating the terms not only of what you are talking about, but what everyone is.

But yeah: As long as you think you get to define what the conversation is about by what you "were referring to", yes Doug, we're done here.
