If your irony meter is malfunctioning, maybe I can help you. I think you have it placed too close to your own posts. When you claim that someone else can't read or write English, and describe them as "illiterare", that just plays havoc with an irony meter.

Sandman
I don't have a spell checker, since I post via slrn.

Tony Cooper
Then engage the brain. You should be able to look at a post before sending and spot great glaring errors like this.

Sandman
There were not "great glaring errors", only small spelling errors.

Why don't you engage your brain and spot enormous glaring errors before posting idiotic things like:

"No, you support a claim by making a sensible claim in the first place."

Eric Stevens
That's a good start. There is no possibility of supporting a stupid claim.

Sandman
True - but according to Tony, the support itself is always contained within the claim itself, if it is "sensible".

That's a twisted interpretation which I think you have made up to enable you to build a shonky argument on top of it. If I am wrong, please show me where and how you can justify "according to Tony, the support itself is always contained within the claim itself, if it is "sensible".

To test it, let's do this. Here is a claim from me:

"I drive a 2012 Dodge Charger SRT8"

Tell me, Eric, how that claim should be formulated in a supposed "sensible" way to contain the support for it being factual.

I know you can't answer that, and Tony can't either. That's what makes him illiterate. He can't express himself in a logical manner, nor can he read English and comprehend it.

"If it isn't stated, it's ignored."

Eric Stevens
Of course it's ignored.

Sandman
Incorrect. Or else you just ignored the color of my socks, the middle name of my wife and the age of my children. Why did you ignore that, Eric?

Because you never stated anything about them.

To ignore something, it must be known to you ...

Another of your self-serving definitions?

... and you then choose to refuse to acknowledge or take notice of it. The context in which Tony used this did not meet these requirements.

"Only Adobe can call a plug-in a "Photoshop Plug-in""

Eric Stevens
When you consider copyright law you will know that is correct.

Sandman
Incorrect. Especially given the fact that Tony's statement is that everyone else should use "Plugin for Photoshop", where copyright laws would apply the same way.

Calling something a 'Plug-in for Photoshop' is not the same as 'Photoshop Plug-in'. 'Plug-in for Photoshop' means that the plug-in is designed to work in/with Photoshop. 'Photoshop Plug-in' means that the plug-in is a component of Photoshop. The plug-in needs to be written or licensed by Adobe before it can claim to be a component of Photoshop.

"All of the plug-ins I have for PS work in LR"

No comment about this gross error on Tony's part? Shocking :)

"A requirement is what you want to do."

Eric Stevens
Of course, that's not quite what he said, is it?

Sandman
It's a direct quote, accompanied with a Message-ID.

But you quoted him out of context and made no mention of him later saying:

"Personally, I'll stick with "requirement" being only something that is "needed". That allows me to use it to mean a needed condition *or* a needed action." --
