In conclusion : acquire some realword critical thinking skillz, please. 😉

No, it isn't irrelevant. If you don't learn to back up your opinion, no one will take you seriously.

That post was my first in this thread. How could I have already said this? How is my rewording of
the post either incorrect or irrelevant?

What is the referent to 'this' in your first complete sentence?

Then this idea of "truth by majority" should apply equally to your suspect and rather precarious interpretations, by yourself and the others. 😞

And once again you are tripping over your own shoelaces in a severely misguided attempt to "show" that you understand the solution, when clearly this is a very poor assumption at best.

Exactly. Which is precisely why i don't take you and your "cut and paste" problems and gee whiz solutions seriously. 😕

Well at least I 'cut and paste' something. You can't even do that. You simply say that everyone is wrong.

Nemesio's only been in this thread for 5 minutes and he's already cleating you a new rectum. I think we're going to have to give you a candy necklace so you can finally make some friends.

Oh, I'm sorry. My mistake. I must be very stupid not to notice that post.

He's a tricky little bugger.

I did read it. You have failed repeatedly to address the issue of the sides of the card. You simply
think it's a coin flip. It's not. I showed why it is not, elucidating that point with names of
boys and girls to illustrate that when you see a silver side, you are seeing one of three possible
silver sides just like you see one of three possible girls.

I've been in the thread very briefly, and that post was one with legitimate content and no
ad hominem attacks.

If you are right, it should be trivial for you to demonstrate the hole in my reasoning.
It should require very little effort on your part. If you show that you are right, I will concede it.
