I thank you... and wish to inform you that I usually do read most of your
posts as well.... for the wit, and rhetorical value... or at the very least
a balanced counterpoint to debate.

ah I see now. You see, I didn't read jl's post.
You may take pride in the fact that while I may not read all others, I
typically read (most of) your posts. Hence, I was not aware of the
reference (i.e., I took it out of context).

Excellent!

Taking question 3 as the control.... it would follow that my initial
response to jl was in effect not only justified, but followed in rhyme &
reason to his comment.

Thusly.... my reply to you that it 'rhymes' was not entirely out of
bounds or incorrect.

Mooron logic.... not for the faint of heart or those who think within
the box. :-D

I'm sorry, I thought you were just busting my stones.
Ok then.
#1 - agreed, since rhetoric implies persuasion via reasoning.
#2 - agreed, since I said it before I can't disagree with myself now.
#3 - disagree, since the case can be made for their coexistence (e.g.,
if I want to convince you that we should sail tomorrow, I might reason
with you that the "pink sky at night is a sailor's delight" [assuming
the sky is indeed pink this particular night]. So my reasoning is both
rhetorical and a rhyming!

We'll require an example Jon!

I disagree with #3. Rhyme can have reason and reason can often rhyme.

No... it was an auto-responder verification check.
Please indicate if you agree with the following.

1.]-Rhetoric vs Reason = not mutually exclusive / often synonymous
2.]-Sarcasm vs Satire = not mutually exclusive / often synonymous
3.]-Rhyme vs Reason = mutually exclusive / not synonymous

but they're not mutually exclusive terms CM, and are often
synonymous.
