: Hi Butcho
:
: I have written that there is a good chance
: that I have been mistaken about everything
: that I have written. That includes the
: double-walk. And therefore I conclude that
: you might be right.

: Secondly, there is a differnce between
: prescriptive privileging and descriptive
: privileging. Descriptive privileging merely
: states that "if I do A, the result will
: be B."
:
: For example: "If I pour water on my
: head, my head will be wet." There is
: no "should" in this case. A
: "should" would make it
: precsriptive.

rat,
As a general rule I don't think you should pour water on your head unless it is on fire. There are other exceptions but I don't want to appear silly.
