Well sure. I agree!
But, see, I'm not arguing with *you*!!!
I'm disputing the assertion that BSB is the "wrong" name but Dark Shark is
the "right" name which was made upthread. I see no prima facie basis for
that assertion, and was asking for some support for it from the person who
made it, or anyone else either for that matter.
You seem to be making a rather different point, one which(once again I
repeat) I am not disputing, but one which, when reasserted by you, is
unfortunately not helping get my question answered. Perhaps that's your
intent, I can't really say. Perhaps there's no justification for the
assertion I am questioning at all?
