Nice try at redirection, but as we say around here: "that dog won't hunt".

I requested (twice) a cite from a recognized, authoritative source, such as a dictionary. I even explained what I meant by that in case you had trouble understanding.

Instead, you offer someone else's opinion and claim that should be good enough.

As the one who makes the assertion, it is up to you to back up your claim, not me to disprove it. I see that you cannot.

This, or course, calls into question all the other assertions that you have and will continue to make. Looks to me like you just make stuff up out of whole cloth when it suits your purpose.

Kinda funny, really.

"Instead, you offer someone else's opinion and claim that should be good enough."

Why isn't it? It's probably good enough for everyone else on this forum.

Besides, you were simply wanting an assurance that I wasn't making it up. I gave you that assurance with the link.

"it is up to you to back up your claim"

I did! What's wrong with my cite? I stand by it unless you can tell me why it shouldn't be used.

Otherwise, this crap can go on all night -- I give you a link, you say no good, I give you another, you say no good, I give you another ...
