Re: Bringing this thread back to the present...
Hi Rob,
I am willing to put this in Coffee House. I am hoping to keep things more on topic by allowing you the appropriate place to hash things out.
I would prefer if the topic wasn't a continuation of the talk with kuresu, and maybe I can coerce you into removing those references, and just presenting the word 'theory' as the first word for 'study'. You don't have to put all your eggs in the first basket you find.
I will wait for your final changes, and give the other admins a chance to protest.

Re: Definition of words
Dear Rob, it is far too long.
You don't have to write everything at once. Mention that you want to discuss the word 'theory', and let the trial begin. All the evidence does not need to be presented in the opening statement.
I don't care how personal things are with kuresu, but the point is that anyone reading a thread for the first time should be able to follow the train of thought without past references to people who may or may not still be here. A thread should not be contingent upon one person's participation, and if it is, it should be a GD. I don't want this to be a GD, it is not worth it. I would only be willing to do one thread for random semantics in Coffee House.
I want to give you one exemption before your vacation, and promote, but I really think we could do without the 'God is reality' etc., and stick to the first few sentences.
ABE; OK, I am doing it just this once as is, since others seem willing to participate.
