You may not have noticed that “Nick” isn’t answering questions, just asking them and showing no indication he understands our answers. He’s talking around us, and that’s why I’ve come to the conclusion he’s a troll. I’ve had these discussions before, and I see the handwriting on the wall.
It's also possible that understanding what we're about takes more effort than he had in mind. I guess we'll see.
For me anyway, it's an opportunity to clarify my own thinking.
