Honestly, is it your mission in life to make bricks look insubstantial?

Wow! Hardly! After all of the above serious indictments, you respond only to the one piece where I am the champion of the tangible, objective , empirically evidential world and the admin here (DQ anyway) has refused to even answer my challenge, "How are you not a solipsist?"
Actually as a part time stonemason/bricklayer, I have a better than average appreciation of the tangible and substantial nature of bricks. So your reply here strikes me as totally off-the-(brick) wall....
Not suprising, tho. Your only and repeated reply to my post about the admin.'s woman-hating as an indication of seriously abused childhood was labeling it "tripe" and other derisions without substantial rebuttal.
You've only ever relied on name calling here in reaction to any/everything I've presented. A piss-poor excuse of an admin. for a forum with such a lofty title.
And I've spoken only Truth-as-I-know-it here!
