On that note, we're still waiting for your opinion on eating elephant
dung - good idea or bad?

Bad. Very bad, indeed. Personally, I wouldn't do that. Your mileage
may vary.


I presume you have practical experience eating elephant dung on which
you base that opinion. I know you wouldn't express an opinion if you
weren't qualified to render one...right?


John:

I've had the experience of smelling elephant dung, and since the sense
of smell is directly related to the sense of tast, my "experience" made me
realize that the elephant dung would not make for a particularly
wholesome and appetizing meal. OTOH, people who have never learned
and used Morse code have no alternative experience from which to base
their objections to code testing, since they haven't learned, first-hand, of
it's operational benefits and advantages. The "elephant dung" argument
is purely apples-to-oranges.
