My argument was that your message was nonsensical and poorly written.
My evidence was your message. It is the most appropriate and accurate
evidence possible.

I've participated in this group for many years.
I have used only two names.

I did. I could. That's not true of many others.
What I wrote to you is reasons for you to change for YOUR benefit.
It would make it possible for YOUR messages to reach and be understood
by other people. Any sensible person would be trying to do that, since
posting is rather pointless without those qualities.

If you don't care for anyone to read your message, why bother posting?
Since the purpose of writing these and posting them is for others to
see them, why not participate in such a very simple way?
Why be combative, difficult, and childish?
This is how you have been taught to read and write ALL YOUR LIFE -- it
is acceptable and intelligent. Why fight that?

And speaking of context, the message to which you refer is not mine.

You're wrong... as usual. I'm not willing to indulge your willful
stupidity by giving definitions you ought to know.

Why didn't you provide a quote of the Mayor saying Apple is going out
of business? You said their were too many of those to count, yet you
haven't produced even one quote in several years of you being asked to
back your assertion.
