To you maybe, not to me and it is *my* definition that applies to me, not yours. > Thus, anyone who describes you as "European" is correct. > You may dislike them for describing you like that, but > you can't say they're wrong. Yes I can, because they are. > If you wish, sue me for libel and you can see if a court > thinks you can be accurately described as European. I don't care what you or any court may think, I am not a European and that's an end of it. If you don't like it, stop calling me it and I will stop complaining. > Note also that I'm not trying to "define" you, merely > describe you. I have not asked for your description. I know perfectly well who and what I am, and European isn't it. Ivor

No mate of mine would insult me over and over and over again despite my asking them not to. Ivor

First part correct, second part not so. > Damn, now I've "immediately become completely and totally > wrong". So what does that leave you as? That argument doesn't work. Even a liar can tell the truth sometimes. Ivor |
