I wouldn't even think of using my style with you, RADZ, Modulous, Dr. A, cavy, Cora, PaulK and I could go on for ages. You folks I ask questions and hope I hit something profound by accident.
I think my style works best with non-opponent, pro & con participants and lurkers.
I don't think any style works with those I choose as
targets opponents.
P.S. As an improvement I'd suggest some kind of pledge that direct questions will be answered directly. There is of course no way to make that workable.
H.S. Dr. A's style would work on me if I recognized even the tiniest splink in my argument. Mod's works on me whether I recognize a splink or not. Unfortunately for me one of the extremely few things I envy I've neither the skill nor temperament to emulate it. The style that will never work on me is "I've discovered something very special that I want to share with you." To "special sharing" I say "Die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die." or of that ilk.
