Aaand I'm getting into an old argument with the bro about emotional vs quantitative arguments.

Heh. Neither, really. I slip easily from quant to emo, but recognize when I'm doing it. What I get into it with him is that emo plays SO HARD with most people, more than quant. And since that's Not Logical, he wants to blow it off.

You can't counter it with facts, you have to appeal to its roots.
He just wants to beat you with spock logic.
