P1: Water doesn't make hot tea when combined with tea leaves.
P2: Yes it does, see <points to directions on how to make tea>
P1: Most people don't bother waiting until the water boils, they just pour it on from the faucet.
- giantg2 4y agoWhat a terrible analogy. If you want to make it analogous to what I'm saying, then your third line would have to be true, and that doesn't make sense for the example you chose.
- Eisenstein 4y agoMy point was that just because people do it improperly doesn't mean it doesn't work -- and it was a great analogy.
- giantg2 4y agoAnd my point was that the major issue with the MRSA outbreaks 15 years ago or so were because people weren't using them correctly. They even started looking into new types of sanitizers because they knew the people using them were using them incorrectly. So sure, it theory it can, but in practice it generally didn't. Hence the part of my initial comment about at least not at typical concentrations etc.
- Eisenstein 4y agoYour claim was that bleach doesn't kill MRSA at normal cleaning concentrations. It clearly does because bleach is rated to kill MRSA by the EPA. You are trying to weasel out of it by claiming that people aren't using it correctly, but that doesn't make it not kill MRSA. People who refuse to concede gracefully are insufferable.
