I must say, though, that your blog is not always the most conducive for rational exchanges, but that's because mostly because of the commentators. Yet, not only because of them, as I have also seen the author decide to ignore serious topics but reply to silly points. I guess, at the end of the fay, it's mostly for entertainment purposes anyway... inconsequential exchange of ideas as I wrote earlier.World of Factshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11066732051794158264noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10584495.post-75517802411345091072016-02-22T15:37:56.215-07:002016-02-22T15:37:56.215-07:00But I'm reasoning with you now regardless, are...<i>But I'm reasoning with you now regardless, aren't I?
