Hey Bill, *some* people never understand anything that they don't *want* to
understand - perhaps that's even true for *most* people (and sorry to say,
it also appears to apply to you in view of your deaf ears when I explained
the glitch in your reasoning concerning SRT).

: What gives you the impression that I turned a deaf ear when you
: 'explained' a "glitch" in my reasoning?
: Did I simply refuse to respond to same (in which case could you repost
: or provide the message number or date for same)?

It was the last message (as far as my newsreader tells me) to you in your earlier thread, on April 8. You did not react to it, either with "Now I finally get what you mean, suddenly I see how easy it all is!" or with "Please elaborate as I'm getting frustrated now". As you did not appear to be seriously trying to understand it, I didn't spend anymore time volunteering. Moreover, your use of quotation marks demonstrates an upfront aversion to what I am telling you, very similar to "turning a deaf ear".

: Or did I respond in a manner that was not to your liking (ditto).

You pretended that you wanted answers on questions...

: Pretended? What gives you that impression?

but apparently that's not really what you are here for.

: So in your opinion what *am* I really here for"?

At least you are testing your skills in arguing - else you would certainly have stopped wasting your time on continuing debates without end with people who don't even understand what you mean!

Cheers,
Harald
