I think everyone is posting on FR because they enjoy the intellectual stimulation and the company.

There, do I win the attributing motive contest? I just attributed motive to everyone here.

[Now who is making up my motives, when I ask for clarifycation!]

The difference between clarification and insinuation are slight, you need to tread lightly with that game.

Here is an example:

[Could you clarify if you have ever been a liar.]

Clearly that is an insinuation, not a request for clarification. So please don’t try to imply that asking whether I was for running Mormons out of Utah was a clarification when it is a rather low insinuation.

I won’t play that game.
