The name of the informal logical fallacy Tim May has *not* made is 'argumentum ad hominem' (literally, 'an argument to the man'; attacking one's opponent rather than dealing with the subject under discussion; aka name calling).

Having said that, while Tim May has not committed a logical fallacy, neither has he advanced a logical argument. He has merely stated his conclusory opinion of the other person's comment. By itself, it adds little or nothing of substance to the argument.

Logos out

Uh logos... Deal with it. If I needed some one to walk me through a mailing list when it concerns constructive arguements I'd be requesting a moderated list and since I find moderated news groups to be nonproductive affairs I tend to find this mailing list perfect for my needs. As for judging if Tim has advanced the arguement or not that is for each person to decide not you. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: 2.6.2 iQEVAwUBMqXvk/+hzPlzwZAdAQF5Lgf/e3/99SUkd9aADGeS8UjYYcSxTuH8LxE5 AdvIRgLmv11BdTgcyK+q03MYV1gGjmZmtWtEuCiPN/O39gtMM4RYcz2/c5f7bMMA h8QwKP9h4RNA1dWgDDF54PQuKElMr9SBJJwLdyYwPddkjjVEs0tjFRoJv2MsEkmB nK3REFH75U6F7q0NZB8IHxBbYNDYbTejRcx5yfP+W1lg2cLK2lonis/G4X6Kj7gu BdNLn3PLS6qr1YgTB1gWQD5JzCN6FJ7Gw0snjALLFbG0QbiMLJd7TT/bWc8ExDoo HUg+U4OKZ/oPLzNMiZqvzn9gMjGKWz0+hQbi8kR1f8OT/5+bJ4CFjw== =xM3k -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
