BUZTASTIC FANTASTIC
If you are too stupid or stubborn to understand why this is then that is not my fault
If someone disagrees they're stupid or stubborn.
He might see, yet not agree. Clearly ad hominem.
A 10 year old who can count and who has a grasp of the concept of co-ordinates can see this.
Clearly you are confused. If people don't agree with you, this doesn't mean they are ten year olds, stupid, or stubborn.

Hey - straight is straight, instead of botherings with semantics, let's just agree on the definition everybody uses. For debate, it should be the definition everyone knows. If Buz was using a different definition, then his motives could be questioned. As it's you who is doing it, it is now your motives that are being questioned. So here's our definition;
______________
There you go.
We haven't made it that far
No - but let's not pretend we won't make it this far;
O
BYE.

So straight isn't straight anymore?
I am not a space-time physicist, neither is anyone here as far as I know. All we are is a bunch of amateur debaters. For the sake of debate it makes sense that the least of us should understand what is being discussed.
Now if a gay man tells me straight isn't infact straight, then we're going to have issues here! (No, I couldn't resist Percy, just a joke, don't pour out your wrath on mikey. )
Seriously though, I don't mind being the least person reading this particular thread, so please - for space-time anomolies such as mikey - lets keep straight straight.

Re: So straight isn't straight anymore?
As for me...well I fit your original description perfectly
Nothing wrong with that, you sound in-tune enough for mikey.
Actually I think we have at least 2 professional space-time physicists who regularly post here at EvC.
Then I am refuted on that particular point.
