Hmmm...where I come from (grew up in Rochester, NY), we have some rather, um, "interesting" names for that "news" paper.
There's a good reason why most Rochesterians also subscribe to either the Washington Post or the New York Times for their news.
Sure, my mom gets the D&C, but only for the Sunday coupons.:-)
As for the discussion, well, I'm in total agreement with Yehoshua. I wonder if those people even know what the phrase "attempting to sound erudite" means, since that's the only way to describe their prattle. Sorry you had to go through that. Don't worry, you're points were clear and well-stated, theirs were the convoluted ones.
