i learn things from the debates in here, actually.
enough so that i still take the time to play here.
which often i should not do....

even if i do not agree with the positions of almost any conservative, i find that working out how they think is interesting.
sometimes.

debating is like any chess game--if i make a mistake and get called on it, i'll find the mistake, think about it, and move on.

if someone brings data to bear on a question that i did not know about, i'll check it out and think on the matter for a while.

conceding defeat is not a problem.
without occaisional defeat, there is no learning.
