my lord. To think I’ve wondered at this when you were that accessible all this time… thank you so much. You have no idea what it means to me.

Hi @Banno

Around 10 or so years ago, I participated often in the philosophy forums. At the time, you had a quote, something to the gist of, “seek to interpret someone as optimally as you can as to influence agreement.” It was absolutely not that. I was wondering as it has pondered me for the last decade… do you have it written down somewhere? Do you know what I’m referring to?
Sorry to fail at your game. I just couldn’t message you and at this point it’s become important to me to find the original phrasing… if you’d be so kind.

Thanks — don’t even remember what my old username was
