Well, you are prone to interject some witty saying as a sort "well that's all folks" ending when you realize that you are on the weak side of the discussion. Which, let it be said, is a far superior tactic to Tom's invariable change in context of the entire discussing. So, one might say, that I was being polite I just nodded my head and went on the the next subject. -- cheers, John B. |
