     We call that a stump, Platt.  Without
cooperation, it is then a debate, and in a debate your
on your own, and when in a debate if you don't address
the pertinent points, then it is assumed you have been
stumped.  You don't know how to answer Arlo's point. 
Now if you tried to cooperate with Arlo, and tried to
find out the answer to this questioning together,
well, then that would have been a different story.
