English doesn't work that way. "What" and "it" are both placeholder pronouns in this context. The question "for what?" was answered unambiguously with a single noun phrase, so whatever follows the 'for' in the answer is now now the referent for...

You can play all these games you want. I have conversations with people every day and to me, in context "I don't know about it" refers to the report mentioned by the reporter. If you think differently, then give evidence that supports what you...

Using fizzBuzz's apparent "'it' refers to the most recent noun phrase" logic, then 'it' is the school, not the report. Of course, Trump's claims of not knowing about something are just a overused, and by now quite stale, deflection technique...

I have no clue what he's going to do. It's not like Trump to apologize for anything. I just know that I look at these things honestly and from the way the question was asked, it's obvious Trump was referring to the report, not the incident. "I...

I am stuck on the claim that the incident lasted 15 minutes. When I first read about this case, I assumed it was closer to 1–2 minutes. And while 15 minutes might not sound long, it's actually an extremely significant timeframe. Over 15...

you're picking on it because you're petty and hypocritical. usually you try to demonize me constantly for taking an off topic comment someone made and answering it. you accuse me of "there goes deirdre again derailing the thread. you always do...

Thanks for the link. I just wrote a long comment on there pointing out all the errors he made (ugh). Although, he does say he doesn't think they saw aliens. He strawmans the puppet hypothesis and gets lots of other details wrong, unfortunately...

Was about to post something similar. Testing the level of initiation in the audience is not only essential when communicating - it's also fun. Drop the odd shibboleth here and there and see who's still talking about UFO's and ET. Mrs McCasland...
