Hey ya'll...though I hoped otherwise, I figured he would be in here at some point to defend his internet honor. So much for wishful thinking.
It was indeed an honest inquiry into the terminology used, and as I stated in both this thread and the catalyst thread, I figured it was a matter of semantics, and it was. That was the point in the other thread--the words themselves don't mean anything...
I just wish he could have answered the question the first few times it was asked, then this thread would have never needed to be created.
But with that...thanks again for the elaboration, it's appreciated.
"I don't know if anyone is known with the art of "sitting on your couch" here, but in my eyes it is also to be a martial art.
It is the art of avoiding dangerous situations. It helps you to avoid a dangerous situation by not actually being there. So lets say there is a dangerous situation going on somewhere other than your couch. You are safely seated on your couch so you have in a nutshell "difused" the situation."
