And yet it's from a source that you directed me to and cited approvingly.
You are quoting incorrect data
"And yet it's from a source that you directed me to and cited approvingly."
"it still means that if $31 million in imports was consumed by the north, the other 90+% consumed by the south and it again fails the common sense test."
90+% consumed by the south? No source that I provided said that. You and your pal 'non' conjured up that data as an illogical straw man argument, threw it out, and wanted to argue its fallacy.
Since you were so hell bent to have the data, you are now either wanting to change the subject or playing little "blemish" games rather than discuss it. So, it appears that you have no personal or scholarly interest in the truth. So be it.
Hey guys, you were right. They won't consider anything except their little arguments.
