Pedantry
Posted By: Narcogen <narcogen@rampancy.net>	Date: 10/6/05 12:03 a.m.
In Response To: Ahem. (kapowaz) : Like I said, dismiss the content if you will, but it certainly isn't a : 6-month old article. The rest is mere pedantry, my friend. I never said the ARTICLE was old. I said the NEWS was old. If Bach says the same thing today as he said yesterday, I hope to God somebody isn't going to report it again as news, because it isn't. And even if Bach came out like Gates did and said "Halo 3 comes out tomorrow" it's STILL not going to be news, because he's not in a position to say that. Any more than Gates, despite his position, is able to conjure Halo 3 out of thin air by decreeing it. Since I bothered to point out that I knew the ARTICLE was dated the previous day A MERE 10 MINUTES after posting the original, and HOURS before anybody even bothered to post a reply, I'd have thought it obvious that I understood the distinction.

Fake Halo 3 Script Unconvincing
