True, but the phrase you quote has a merely rethoric use anyway. The OP wasn't basing any of his argumentation on that broken thesis.

- davidw 17y agoNo, but it still takes something away from the whole when you know it's flat out wrong. It's like starting out "Since the earth is flat, we believe files should be too".
- euccastro 17y agoThat's a bad illustration, since the false fact is used in the argumentation. I find bad spelling a better analogy. If the OP's spelling and grammar were insufferable, it would have "taken something away from the whole" and still not be worth commenting on. That said, no big deal. I only felt compelled to reply to your comment because I found it strange that it was the highest ranked.
