162. So you didn't tell the truth
I have admitted characterizing what I saw and still see as "possibilities" as firm conclusions in order to make a point about jumping to conclusions.

You said it was a conclusion when it really was only a possibility, but when you intentionally stated it as a conclusion, it was not.

This may be a bit subtle for some, but it is not really similar to hiding what my true beliefs are and (eventually) admitted uncertainties are

I guess it's "subtlety" explains why you don't explain the difference.

I keep hoping that someone on this thread will understand and acknowledge this simple fact about the limits of typical human perception. So far, the other posters just don't seem to get this. They would rather trust the ESP that the original poster and her husband are effectively claiming.

Ahh, you can't read people's mind, but you know cally's thoughts well enough to know that her conclusion is based on ESP.

Nice.
