Really? I reinforced what? I asked you what you meant. -- You may not
understand how metaphors work -- and in this case it didn't work with me -- so
I asked what you meant.
Now if you were referring to my reply where someone made several disparaging
remarks on my post -- and you think that I was being argumentative for taking
the poster to task -- then call it anything you want.
