- I'll repeat, in this particular instance of your...hmm...original editing, Don.
-
- For a third time.
-
- I know the conclusion *I* am coming to....
-
- Are you looking for an answer, or just a brangle?

- Ah. I see. AND/OR doesn't really MEAN anything with regard to three
- separately enumerated questions. Yeah, that's the ticket.
-
- >The AND/OR's were to give you the opportunity to come up

-
- Oh. They do mean something. Not what any native english speaker would
- think they mean, but still, they mean something.
-
- OH! I see! An Opportunity, to answer two out of three questions
- directly, and the third what you consider indirect, and still be
- told I'm not answering your question!
-
- Then, when asking for a second time for CLARIFICATION of your question
- (i.e., a DEFINITION of AA), and not getting it for a second time, sitting
- through your petty insults about not answering the questions again!
- I'm beginning to see how the game is played!!!

-
- 1. I certainly didn't flame Karl as much as I could. Trust me. (-:
-
- 2. My definition of AA is the equitable standards I've used so far in
- answering these questions. I know you've deleted those portions, but I
- trust you can go back and find it again.
-
- Done.
-

- >especially since it was you who objected to multi-groups.)
-
- talk.abortion is the only group I read of those in the header. If you'd
- care to tell me which group you are reading, we can spare the others this
- bandwidth, which I *know* is of great concern to you.
