- Believe me, I understand all of this completely. I was merely providing
- an exception to the asserted statement of fact so I would rather it
- *mot* [sic] be done either. Kinda like someone claiming the sky is
- always blue...having lived through a few tornadoes and seeing a
- green sky, I'd rather it *mot* [sic] do that either, but that doesn't
- make it an absolute!
