You what with CellBioGuy..?
Should be "ADBOC" -- "agree denotationally, but object connotatively". (ygert is probably thinking of "disagree" instead of "object".)
Ah, thanks. I usually think of such things as "technically correct but misleading" -- that's more or less the same thing, right?
Yes.
Yes, my mistake. I was in a rush, and didn't have time to double check what the acronym was. Edited now.
I think I could make an argument that "object" has a semantic advantage over "disagree" but one advantage is that "adboc" can be pronounced as a two-syllable word.
