 Nah.  No sarcasm in that question, nor any implication that you
 are not "truthful".  She just wants to know if there is maybe,
 perhaps, the slightest possibility, mind you, that all the information 
 on which you base your statements is *not* 100% correct.  That's all.  
 No biggie.  
 
 I also saw no implication by her, one way or the other, as to your 
 *intent*.  Don't know how you inferred that, but that's beside the 
 point.  You project yourself as being an open-minded person.  By 
 speaking to you as if you are, she is paying you a compliment, 
 'Course, me and whatisname Miller, might be wrong.  
 
 I'm also reading your statement above as just a simple question and 
 not a personal attack intended to change the subject.  I'm also 
 assuming that you are a thinking person and your question was made 
 from an inquiring and curious standpoint, and that you didn't ask it 
 in anger or from a defensive standpoint, like a closed-minded person
 would, because of your earlier references to wanting to keep this
 on a debate level.
 I hope this helps.
 
 So, the question was:
 SB> Charles, is there any possibility that you are not 100% 
 SB> correct in all SB> your beliefs?
