Amen(1).

1 - IT'S JUST AN EXPRESSION. I haven't converted or anything. :-)

Just a question, Larry.  You say you haven't converted, but how can
that be?  To say that implies you have something to convert _from_.

Caught me being insufficiently precise. :-)... I should have said "I
haven't decided to reject reason yet, and I haven't decided to take
things that don't make sense or follow the rules of causality on faith
yet, and I don't intend to." Clearer? But Beaker knows well that would
be even MORE of a troll.

Yes, that's clearer.  But not as pithy.  Could you distill it down
into something more succinct?
