Oh My GodQuote from oktiri:
The fact that the mechanism was "induction" doesn't mean I should have used the word INDUCE ? got it ?
"I can deduct you're a Vancouverite" is more appropriate AND CORRECT in this case than "I can induce you're a Vancouverite".
It is a fact that the process was inductive and yet it is not incorrect to use the wrong word to describe it???
If you arrive inductively at the conclusion that I'm a Vancouverite, it is more appropriate to say 'I deduce that you're a Vancouverite'?
I'm begging you now, please... stop it. Just log off, oktiri and I promise I won't post the link to this abortion of a debate in your next PC thread. The right will have a field day with this last claim of yours, that what you say doesn't matter, it's what you meant that counts.
By the way, will you please stop misspelling 'deduce'? It's not deduct, son.
Wow, just goes to show you what happens when a single 35-year old sits at home watching cartoons and trolling message boards.
