Maybe the wiki is a good place to do this, since it is marginally harder to respond with another version of an old argument again. << The secret is to try to summarize not the entire discussion, but only the eventual conclusions. >> Well, of late there have been precious few conclusions that are worth summarizing, though just laying out the possibilities would be some help. The really important thing, I think, however is to lay out the arguments so that, when the damn thing comes up again (and it will, despite our efforts), we can just say -- as xod is now doing -- see paragraph 3 or whatever. Otherwise, each newby will think he has found a new objection and launch sos again. Of course, every once in a while someone does find a new objection and that has to be dealt with -- but it would be nice to deal with the new piece without having to refight the old stuff over and over.
