      Through what mechanism is that apparent? Inference? Surely I am not responsible for whatever random ideas pop into your head

        Likewise, I am not responsible when others imagine I said something I didn’t. Thank you for making my point for me.

          I’m glad we are both in complete agreement that it is definitely impossible for any meaning to be conveyed other than a literal interpretation of the exact words being used.

          Your contribution to this discussion has been very valuable and I’m sure everyone is looking forward to hearing more from you

            I never said that, but that’s never stopped you from pretending I did, or imagining any other contribution. Why bother for me to participate at all when you’re clearly capable of carrying on both of our parts by yourself?
