No, Sqrl, if Kissinger says he wants to open very high level negotiations without conditions, and he intends for low-level talks to take place first, then that is my definition and not yours. [edit: Or at least it seems to clearly be that way to me and thus if I am wrong I am in dire need of correction.]

You also misunderstood my mall analogy. Triviality wasn't the point, it was that of course you would park in the mall parking lot.  Putting gas in the car isn't trivial, either.  Although I can imagine scenarios of going to the mall without parking there, most of the time (unless one uses public transportation most of the time) you would park at the mall and not even think about that as being a necessary condition of going to the mall. Thus I believe it is with Obama and the Iran talks. And if something happens and the mall parking lot is flooded or Iran is completely beyond reason, well then you have a problem, but it's expected that things will proceed.

My advice to fanboys: Brag about stuff that's true, not about stuff that's false. Predict stuff that's likely, not stuff that's unlikely. You will be happier, and we will be happier.
