"I don't know" would have been acceptably mature response, but hey, I can appreciate bland rhetoric, too.


Bland rhetoric? You are just accusing me of redefining a word beyond usefulness for refusing to compromise standards for the sake of historic revisionism. How is "I don't know" even a response to what you wrote? You didn't ask a question...

You never answered the question. Indeed, you refused to answer it.
