Debate and discussions have always been so thrilling to me.At the tail of every discussion i could either get the subject lucid or my partner.Constructive were those days of debates. All they did was put your view on the table. And even without the disclaimer 'NOM', it used to work pretty well. We were debating on the subject; the subject was not debating us. I recall the days when on the heat of discussiobs people used to defend themselves, not with baseless facts, but with beauty of language.
Off late, i have started hating debates whichhas become solely defense.Often it runs into a moot and apparently there is no light at the dawn, but just resentment that irritates for a few minutes. And as i sit through yet another bootless fight, i am silent coz i have planned to divert my energy to something substantial.
