You might feel better in yourself if you stuck to chatting agreeably with self-confessed fascists.

Goss isn't a fascist.

Sorry, but your "I wonder" by definition is a question, because it implies a respons in the form of an answer. Obviously your language education is or was deficient, because you have been unable to answer two questions, thus G=G+1

Question 1 is why did you post the issue of a Frenchman writing in French, if not a question or a crit.

Question 2 what evidence to you have that what I call a question from you is not a question.

Adding --- why are you persisting in this thread diversión, when you already have my answer to your off topic rabbiting on about your stupid question in the first plae.

This system was supposed to be a force for information.

Instead its become a sink for consumerism and spitting hatred at suntans.

In the case of Jennifer z, an opportunity for isolated egotistic individuals to ignore questions for which the answers might be embarrasing to fragile egos.

I agree with what you say, Zarknorph was asking a question.

A rather bizarre question since the article here says nothing about the letter being in the French language.

I know! That's what I said!

I didn't.  I simply mused aloud about the fact I never knew why all the Olympic statements were said in French and English.  You proceeded to attack me for my stupidity in a question I never asked.

"Sam wondered why the two men were fishing in the rain"

What evidence do you have that the above sentence is a question?

You CANNOT re-word the sentence to MAKE it a question.

Because, as a teacher, you have to accept that you might be mistaken.  You refuse to even acknowledge the possibility that you might have made a mistake.

You refuse to have your word questioned.  You call people stupid.

This makes me think that you are not a good teacher.  And worse, your students are learning that they can NEVER question authority in any way.  Do you call your students stupid?  Do you insult them during your lessons?

That is why I will "rabbit on" about this until you answer the question I asked.

What was the question?

You wanted to know (in relation to an article that didn't mention "France" or "French") why the letter was in French.

Ideally, the way you phrased it, you should have answered your own question.

Without that completion, it was a question.
