I think we're talking about more or less the same thing. My point is 
simply that "What do you mean by that?" is likely to get a better 
response than "Let me tell you why what you just said makes no sense at 
all."  Obviously that's an extreme version, and I'm _not_ implying that 
this is how you personally would approach the situation. OTOH I have 
seen others from the technorati approach similar situations in just that 
manner, to the detriment of all concerned.
