hrmmm...is that so?
There's a short little adage I tell my students who try and insult or start an argument with other students over a solution to a problem in class (we do a lot of creative problem solving)....some of the kids try to make the others seem stupid or invalid in order to prove THEIR opinions right. (What does that sound like?
) Anyways...it goes something like this:
If you don't have a better idea -- then keep quiet, because you're compromising the work on what is, apparently, the best idea in the classroom.
They often don't like that...but they accept it, because they quickly realize I have no time for peanut galleries/backseat drivers/etc. Be constructive to the cause, or step away until you can be....
Anyways, I can adapt that a number of ways, depending on the situation.....in this case.....I'd simply say:
If you're not an engineer...on the Camaro team...at the drag strip the day this time was achieved,
yet you maintain this time is a lie/not possible, etc...I suggest a bite of humble pie, because chances are you have no idea what you're talking about. These people may be enthusiastic...passionate....proud even! (God forbid!!!).....but they're
not liars.
I haven't read through the thread entirely to see any of those comments you're referring to, Htron....but if I saw one - that's probably what I'd say.

I wish you could see how hard that made me laugh.
