Dear Ryanamur,
I wanted to say, just for the record, that your post "made my day" yesterday! There has been little for me to get my teeth into lately, and I got to get on one of my "grand posts." Anyway, I appreciate it, and I appreciate your point of view as well.
I think it all comes down to a matter of semantics. To me, the word "cheat" means something underhanded and filthy that hurts someone. To call me a cheater is like calling me a thief or a liar or a fraud. Other people may not have the same definition. My point was that many people that I know "share" this connotation of the word...that was all.
But once again, thanks for a great session for a debate! We need more out there.
Cheers,
