In which Steve offers a mea culpa

This is twice now that I have followed someone down the rathole of a splintered argument. My self discipline is slipping.

I have also been guilty of following a circular argument for more than one circuit. Bad Steve. Bad, bad Steve.

Finally, I have committed the sin of reacting to a non sequitur. I am so ashamed.

I'm guilty as charged, I'm sorry and I promise to do better.
