    If your point is that I changed the wording that I used, but not the meaning, then you are correct.
    so how ever many points later - we're back to the beginning and what i said was correct. you did change your wording - that's all fine but how many posts ago could you have said that...

    don't flatter yourself and him as it goes...

    you're not as innocent as you're trying to portray yourself so do me a favour don't even bother with the dramatics...

    stick to the points, don't try and be clever with your little snide remarks towards me and everything will be fine.

    OK. Can you just verify something for me before we move away from this discussion ? Will I continue to be told that I am "backtracking" if I say something in one post, then post something later with the same meaning, but using slightly different phrasing or words ? For example, you are now telling me that this is backtracking......

    "I might argue that this isn`t true in all cases."

    then later saying......

    "OK, I say "not in all cases".

    If it is, I`ll have to be extra careful with my choice of words.

    I feel the need to wait for your advice on what backtracking is. You still haven`t made it clear.

    I also feel the need to cut the lawn. It looks like it could rain soon, so I`d better get cracking.

    Hey, chucky, if you hear a lawnmower start up near you, come and say hello.
