Donal McEvoy:
"It 'asserts'. But mere assertion is not argument."
I agree, but how is it relevant? If we both agree that I was only
making an assertion, and there was no pretence to an argument, why are
you going on about an argument? Is this some whacked-out Popperian way
of asking me to justify my assertion? No wonder Wittgenstein went after
Popper with the poker.
