Aurino, I disagree.

Anyway, I thought you had finally figured out I was right in principle- re: children?

But I'm not here to convince Dick of that particularly; I was just hoping he would return to some real debate like in the past, he has shown every ability to debate with Harv.

Harv even offered to step aside and give me a turn. I am frustrated by how much money it costs me to get some response from Dick.

If it didn't cost me money, I would be under much less pressure over this. Of course I don't have to try for the short cut of talking directly to Dick; I could slave over his paper and try and figure it out line by line. But he does not insist Harv do that; so it cannot be a necessary ingredient to discussing the paper.

I thought I had got somewhere in understanding it. An expert mathematician has looked at his paper and confirmed that I am on the right track. I'm not used to being treated so unreasonably; so I have been reluctant to believe Dick would never be considerate of my plight.

If Dick was right in every way, he would not be so logically inconsistent.

I do not subscribe to Dick's religion.

You have not addressed the complaints I made about his inconsistency.
