Re: I suppose I ought to ask him

Ordinarily he'll be pretty open about not agreeing (and I totally prefer that Poet, how about you?).

I still think he was maybe distracted and chose the wrong thing to trot out. It's ok since he recovered instantly. But if he did mean "I hear what you're saying", I'd rather know.

I'm glad I'm not alone in disliking those euphemisms. I think "I understand why you'd feel that way" sounds a bit better than the others. It at least acknowledges that you're not just plain wrong. You have understandable reasons for being plain wrong. I suppose that's better?
