Michael! First a hypothetical situation with a flawed conclusion, then a
sweeping generalized argument from authority and now anecdotal evidence?
I could play battling anecdotes with you, but it wouldn't prove anything.
You still haven't actually answered my first two objections.
A) You are responsible for your own actions.
B) Do the research if you are going to make an "argument from authority".
It's a weak argument in any case... but you don't get to make stuff up.
That isn't how reasoned discourse works.
