Here's a question for you (for anyone actually)

Can you have a conversation where both parties are playing devil's advocate. The Doc says he was doing so while at the same time I was doing so. Surely one person has to mean what they're saying.


No, when both parties are playing devil's advocate each is advocating what the other believes :-)

Look at it this way, it's like an old-fashioned duel with pistols at dawn - the duellers take ten paces away from each other and fire - thing is, they don't actually turn round to face each other so there's obviously no possibility of a hit ;-)
