    Hi Horse,

    Is this not an absolute truth?

    > If something is

     Another absolute truth?

    So it's an absolute truth that making absolute statements is pointless and
    without meaning?

    Run that by mean again. I see two absolute premises and an absolute
    conclusion.
     
    Pray, what am I missing?

    But more importantly, at this time of year it's well to count one's
    blessings and give thanks to those who have been special friends
    throughout the year. Thus, to you for your dedication to making this site
    available to me and all contributors the MD, my heartfelt thanks and best
    wishes for a joyful holiday season.

    Best,
    Platt
