I'm trying to understand what you are saying. Do you mean I made a loud statement in English deliberately directed at no one, confident that everyone at the table either is not paying attention or doesn't understand, but forgot that you are able to hear and understand me ? Or do you mean that I was having a conversation with you ? Scratching my memory, I don't remember that we talked at all during this dinner, except this: I asked you to who Shredder lost in Paris, you didn't remember, end of conversation. >In other words. It's your word against mine. >Just like all the world championships where you seem to join. I have no idea what you mean by this. Actually I was trying to say that there should be witnesses, but now that I think of this, your word against mine sounds good enough for me Vincent. I am also curious to know: Why am I supposed to prefer Ferret over Shredder ? Amir
