Perhaps a virtual inundation of substantiations was meant to imply a metaphoric onslaught. ...maybe a flood, or even a plethora of substantiations might end up described so?

Sandman
Or maybe just a large quantity of substantiations that Tony has had a hard time coping with? I.e. what actually has happened everytime I've used the word.

Only the times when you use an inappropriate word.

Sandman
You are free to point to any such time, Peter. Be my guest. I am happy to be corrected when I make mistakes. Be sure to point to the post of my inappropiate usage and substantiation for how and why it was inappropriate.

I'm waiting.

PeterN
Just look at and read any of your postings in which Tony orI corrected your English. And that's as far as I go with you English lesson.

The Popinjay will never admit to error.

He uses a Catch 22 form of logic in this area. For example, he maintains that to substantiate a claim that someone ignored a valid point in a post, you must cite something in which that person declared they were omitting reference to that point.

In other words, you must show where the person acknowledged the point to show that the person ignored the point.

We are no better off than Yossarian in following this kind of logic.
