Actually, greymule, I wasn't thinking of you during my latest post on this thread: in fact, I kinda presumed that you had become, however reluctantly, convinced [which, it appears, you are, if not by anything I wrote]. I was thinking of the dolt who wrote "BR IS forced to 1st", without even an attempt at logical reasoning, in the middle of the thread, despite the prior citations of rules by myself and others. It is true, I have little patience with folk who "reason" along the lines of "I think this, so it must be so, and if the book says different, then the book must be wrong." While hardheaded, you do not appear, so far as I have seen, to be one of those. However, I stand by by comment that I have NEVER heard or read a LOGICAL argument for "BR forced @ 1st" as it applies to anything other than whether BR is out is the base is tagged before BR gets there.
So, if I offended you, I appologize.
