(...) If I ever got one of these, I'd probably use it for evil. But really, all it does it turn them off. Where's the fun in that? With a full-function universal remote there are sooo many more options. (...) <plans hatching> Allister (20 years ago, 29-Oct-04, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

Hi, Matthew. (...) Just to be clear, I did not mean to imply that you were necessarily providing *your* justification for the Canaanite genocide, just *a* justification, which is, I think what Stephane was asking for when he asked "How does your (...)

(...) Not really-- because as I've said I've seen what I believe to be evidence of it yielding *correct* results.

I still don't agree that "structure" and "meander" are reasonable opposites except in some interpretive, poetic sense, and in this regard they forfeit their use as scientific tools of assessment.
