Re: Fw: incapable

Argument from personal experience, Sundeep, is more or less valid when
you think you're dealing with someone roughly capable of the same
experience. In other words, I don't think Scottie's a moron, so I
assume he's just not trying hard enough.

I suppose this experience is foreign to you, as you immediately grasp
everything you read?
