If you feel like discussing these issues with all of us, great. If not, then why are you bothering?
No hand grenades being tossed, claim as you may. As I said earlier:
Sometimes I don't feel like writing a treatise. And sometimes I don't feel like elaborating on my prior statements -- statements which I stand by -- especially when it's likely to be used to feed someone looking for a protracted "debate" in which I don't have current interest. This is one of those times. Other times may not be.
.... that' why -- as indicated in my repeated quote in this thread -- I don't always "bother".
I discussed to the extent I wished, but then some wanted to go fishing and complained when I didn't go along.
... that's what I get for "playing along 'with all of us'".
