Unlock your closed mind and you may start to see the complexities of the many different circumstances that could occur, should you *suddenly* find you have no clutch.

Why can't you just answer the question. My mind is open and waiting for your explanation but to date you haven't offered any, all you seem to be interested in is your constant personal attacks on anyone who disagrees with you, it would be a lot less painful to simply answer the question.

Because he's caught between a rock and a hard place. He either has to agree with you and admit what you're saying is correct which would make him look like a complete tool, or he has to disagree with you by coming up with ridiculous bullshit which would make him look like a complete tool. The textbook Oz scenario in fact.

Good luck with that. Personally I think if he genuinely thought he was right we'd have heard his reasons as to why some time ago as he's usually not backward in coming forward with theories. The fact that he hasn't this time suggests that he realises he's painted himself into a corner and it'll be some time before the paint is dry, so he's just going to keep his fingers in his ears and sing the "la-la" song. What a tool :) -- Regards, Noddy.
