Wait a minute, do we go through the looking glass at some point?

Blake, if I’m understanding your last post correctly, after arguing that I was wrong in every one of my posts, you now feel that you see some concession in those same posts.

I hate to point out the obvious, but all of my posts say the same thing now that they did when I first posted them. I have no capacity to edit them. If you’re now seeing any change in them it’s in your interpretation not in the words themselves.

I think at this point, the best thing for all of us would be to go to bed and get a good night’s sleep.
