Ah, yes, like that discussion we once had where you totally
didn't run `git log | grep James Denholm` at one point to demonstrate that I had not yet made any
contributions,instead of actually engaging in discussion. Oh,
wait.

>If their argument is good, their argument is good.

The problem, though, is that time and time again you've
shown that you value your own arguments to the exclusion
of all others. You can't tell if someone else's argument is
 good, because it runs against yours, and yours must be
right because you hold it.

James Denholm.
