Firstly, how can I disprove a legend? Am I also going to prove that bigfoot doesn't exist? After all, nobody has proved bigfoot doesn't exist, therefore he must, right? The whole notion that I should provide evidence that it does no harm is a logical fallacy of appealing to lack of proof of the negative. This is a well known logical fallacy. Moreover, I am not promoting using shaving cream. I am pointing out that the assertion that shaving cream harms tombstones is without evidenciary basis. If I point out that saying the alphabet backwards is not dangerous, am I also promoting people saying the alphabet backwards? > Write something > with shaving cream on > your own vehicle or the side of a brick and watch > the results. We are talking about tombstones, not cars. There is no need to pretend that I said it was safe to put shaving cream on anything imaginable. What I said was that there is no evidence that shows the claim that shaving cream harms tombstones is true. Brock Way __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam?
