The Queen:
Certainly, I anticipated this question, and am happy to clarify my earlier statement. In that post, I noted at how, by appearing to avoid the question, despite being prompted, Avi K seemed to be acting in an evasive manner, something he has done before during this discussion. He has at times acted disingenuous, and by so doing he was acting in a manner similar to a particular type of poster, a type I described as waffling, indirect and evasive. I was not, however, saying he perfectly fitted the profile, merely that he was in danger of doing so. I think he deserves slightly more credit than that, as he has, at times, been reasonably fair and thorough, if occasionally being frustratingly evasive and indirect. For example, in his answer to Brisker’s question, he seemed to be point-by-point and fairly logical, not that I’ve examined it closely. That’s why I didn’t accuse him of ‘specifically’ possessing those traits, as hasn’t, as of yet, been all that bad. I think he just holds a very difficult viewpoint to defend, which is a difficult task to do.
