One of the reasons I don't talk to you much on this board (although I do respect you and find what you say interesting) is that you remind me too much of the way my brother argues. And having spent 40-someodd years arguing with my brother I have now learned not to bother. He does exactly what you do, he states position A then when someone challenges that he acts like he didn't say A he said a. Then when someone challenges that he says he didn't say a he said eh, then when someone still challenges that he says he didn't say eh he said ey. Etc, etc ad infinitum. Sometimes it's fun sometimes it's not.
