Phil Marks' reply to Tetsuo Tomiyama begins: ``Very interesting...that we
should get such an opinion from a Japanese'' [the dots are his]. I can
think of nothing more offensive in a discussion than using a person's race
or national origin to ridicule his position. It is the worst kind of ad
hominem argumentation.
