Well, I give up. :smile:

I think "no" is an answer, "Are you accusing me of murdering Father and Mrs. Borden?" is an answer as well. A suspect could choose not to answe at all, his / her silence is another type of answer. And this doesn't prove nothing.

An anarchist could choose not to answer to the authorities, because of his political philosophy, and could be meanwhile the most innocent person of the world.
Franz, is it obvious that you and I interpret Lizzie's response differently. It's OK, we can agree to disagree, can't we?

Certainly, we can agree to disagree. I think this should be the most important principal of our forum.


BTW, I learned from you an idiom: "until we are blue in the face". Thank you. Oh it should be very cool, anyway, ahahah :color:

I agree, this should definitely be the most important principal of our forum.

You're welcome!

Here is the definition for the idiom, 'till you're blue in the face': If you do something till you're blue in the face, you do it repeatedly without achieving the desired result until you're incredibly frustrated.
