well, how about _you_ think for a minute and see if you can actually
match your claims of "sure"ness then?

Come on now, what you wrote is completely out of order.
Either come up with reasons, or let it go. you cant have a valid
argument with your statements above.
And putting the word "reasons" in quotes, is playing semantic games,
instead of discussing the issue rationally.
either they are valid reasons, or they are not.
Putting "" around them doesnt make them any more, or less, valid.
Deal with the reasons on their merits, please? Let's have a factual
comparison of arguments for each way.
