I really should post a link to this in the Flameboard (they need it more there) but I always thought this site was entertaining. I am referring to the "Conversational Terrorism" web page.Read and comment. Plus, can anyone point me to any good web pages that detail the legitimate (and illegitimate ) tactics of debate? --Baloo ------------------ "Politicians and diapers should be changed regularly, for the same reason." --(Unknown) Come Hither and Yawn...

The only rule to debate is to get your facts straight. That's all. Nothing is off-limits.I've learned from experience that at times, you need to be antagonistic to get any response (although I really don't enjoy it). ------------------ "Don't have a mind" - Kurt Cobain Breed, Nirvana

Uh huh. Anyway, just about any site with a nice introduction to logic should do. I'll try and find a few good ones. ------------------ "20th Century, go to sleep." -- R.E.M.

Such terrible things we have come up with to make converstations of importance sway in our favor. I need more time to read all of this good stuff. Not that I'm bad at it now, but it never hurts to keep up to date. ------------------ Death before Dishonor! However Dishonor has quite a disputed defintion.
