always appreciate your nuanced responses, though we may disagree that the time for that is past. As you yourself have noted, and demonstrated on this board , tragically your previous patience and nuance , has not moved the needle of others understanding

Al has previously said that his goal with these [very!] patient discussions is not to improve the other party's understanding, but to improve his own understanding of the other party. And I suspect that he has been reasonably successful at that. He seems to have a litigator's skill at questioning - never accusatory, but constantly asking questions and subtly (and occasionally not so subtly) pointing out inconsistencies.

Let's put it this way. I never want to be cross-examined or deposed by him. NEVER.
