Oh yeah ok I remember now

@ActiveMind

Silly mistake by me.

Was it a mistake? Im thinking probably people who are ok at reading and writing can pick up:

Re: my quote. The subject of it is whether @ActiveMind made a mistake about something. I say “something” cuz it’s kind of hard to talk about this part of our convo accurately. I don’t wanna misquote.

I think that “something” was about whether “Hank” or “Rearden” refers to Hank Rearden all the time in the book. I know that @ActiveMind and I concluded that it isn’t a mistake like we haven’t refuted that “Hank” or “Rearden” in the book only refers to Hank Rearden.

The subject of my quote is about whether @ActiveMind made a mistake or not about a statement he made in the convo. Here’s the statement I’m talking about:

@ActiveMind

Whenever only “Hank” or “Rearden” is used in AS it’s actually a shorthand for “Hank Rearden”, they’re always referring to the specific person which is Hank Rearden.

Quote #2:

@Dface

Im thinking probably people who are ok at reading and writing can pick up:

@ActiveMind

Oh, obviously “Rearden” could refer to his family members. It’s a shorthand to “Hank Rearden” only when it actually refers to Hank.

without having it stated to them directly.

My part of the quote is talking about how ok readers and writers can understand @ActiveMind’s quote above without having it stated to them. That sounds like I’m talking about the discussion.

Quote #3:

@Dface

I think im inexperienced at how to reference specific people by the use of their last name in a book or essay

My quote is talking about how qualified I am at a discussion. I think that means how qualified in the discussion taking place. That sounds like talking about the discussion.
