I think the argument that blah blah blah is well thought out. However, it doesn't take into account yadayadayada. Because of whateverwhatever, the original argument is not complete. It is very strong though.
If ABC is correct, do we have to accept XYZ?

Good question, Oony. Yes, I agree that we have to consider yadayadayada. That is going to open up a whole new can of worms, though. We can get into it, but I also think that the truth or plausibility of blah blah blah still stands. We can get into it later.
I think we still have to, or have good reason to accept XYZ because XYZ is prior to, so not dependant on ABC and there doesn't seem to be anything about ABC that nullifies the priciple of XYZ.

By the way, please take a moment to answer the poll. Thanks Ok, now it's not clear if it is oony or real world who is talking here. I guess I'll click on reply and see... oh wait! There is no reply button. Hmmm, madness! Ok, what happens if I click on create post at the bottom? I can guess, but I will state right now that I believe this is the admin (real world) and not the member (oony)

Ah ok. Not quite what I expected. So, what is the difference between reply and quick reply? Lets hit post quick reply like we were at first and see what happens!

I know there are replies because I (the admin) sent them, yet I am not receiving any notifications. I have two opetions: One is to click the reply button at the top right. The other, which I have been using, is to click on post quick reply at the bottom left. Will we find clarity or will this become even more opaque? Lets hit quick reply first...

Ok a few things. Now I do see what the admin had sent before. Also, we see that clicking on quick reply just posts my message and then allows me to send another. This time, I will click on reply at the top right...
Well now this is interesting. I clicked on reply at the top right, the window opened at the top right without actually posting my message and has allowed me to add to it. In addition, and this is where it gets really kinda crazy, I have a word processor at the top of this window, so i can change the color, font, underline, etc and add attachments. Who knows what kind of in depth and meaningful communication might ensue given all of these options??
Also, I have create post at the bottom of this window so it looks like members are also allowed to create a post. but does it remain on this board? thread? That would definitely rule because I want students to be able to make their own comments and have others comment on them ie to start their own threads. Want it? I will require it. Oh, by the way, when I say I I mean the admin but this message is being typed in a member window...don't let that confuse you... Ok, click on create post...

Ok, back to the admin. It looks like a member can create a post; however, aside from some fun editing and attachment abilities, there doesn't seem to be much difference from just clicking on quick reply. I think what needs to happen is a third party has to enter the conversation. What we want is for a Facebook style thread to materialize. By that I mean you can comment on the original post, another person can comment and so on to infinity and each new comment will appear beneath the previous one in chronological order to produce the thread. We have that here, but I want it to be such that you can comment not only on the original post but on any individual post in the thread. I am sure you can, but in this format it looks like there won't be any indentations to indicate that. ok lets just quick reply this and go back and try to focus on an earlier comment on this thread...

The admin added a comment and I received no notification; however, clicking at the top of this page on 'argument', the name of this thread (board?) updated the entire thread. quick reply...
