Just to prevent any confusion - I posted a (long)
reply to this yesterday. Foolishly posted it from the
office; evidently the server is acting up again so
there's no telling when it will appear. Will wait
a bit before trying to reproduce the reply.
But in the meantime I would _really_ appreciate
clarification regarding exactly _when_ I refused
to supply a definition on request. Twice you say
something about me not "deigning" to give a definition,
the second time you say that I do not deign to
give definitions until pressed. If you can cite
a place where I was asked for a definition
and didn't give said definition I'll say oops,
never mind excuse me. But I don't believe that
that has happened. Accusing me of refusing to
supply definitions when asked is egregiously
insulting.
