ahhh... just one more thing (that was said in Peter Falk's accent).
Once again, you see things that aren't there in what I say. Boy, you do that a lot! I never "hailed ALG's inconsistency as a good thing" -- I didn't judge it and I never referred to it at all in terms of logic or argument.
What I did do was list as a technique in using the LoA ALG's ability to shift his perspective: to take on and let go of perspectives. You may call this inconsistency if you like; I don't mind.
If there is no point in arguing, and if there is no point in saying anything at all to us lot, why do you keep at it? And with such fervor, too. I'm not saying you *shouldn't* keep at it, mind you. Just wondering why you exert yourself, when you believe there is no point.
