16. Avoid the usual mistakes. Don't just negate, reframe. 17. Once a frame is accpeted into discourse, everything else you say is just common sense (note RLA!) 18. Never answer a question framed from your opponent's point of view. 19. Be sincere. 20. A useful thing to do is to ask a rhetorical question: Wouldn't it be better if...?

I'm here because I think agreement is overrated and that critics can be your best friends: they keep you from getting sloppy or careless. At any rate, I think there are things I can learn from you. I don't expect you are all agreed on anything--I expect there is a lot of diversity of opinion here
