It wasn't clear enough, wasn't it?
Maybe I just misunderstood. Could be my fault, could it not?

Why must it be someone's fault but instead only a misunderstanding?
Do you want to rephrase that?

Terminated.
I thought that was essentially what I wrote; was it not clear?

That would depend on how one phrased the definition, then wouldn't it?
Or on how one phrases their question, correct?

There is too much meta-uncertainty in this thread; shouldn't we define precisely what a question is?

I agree with you. I found a definition as such : "a sentence worded or expressed so as to elicit information." -- I don't know if that precisely defines anything though. What do you think?

What do you think it defines?
Would you agree that the definition above is not appropriate for this this thread, where a question is supposed to elicit another question?

I should think so, don't you?; but it will soon be party time here as well and a good thing I think; how about you?

I think the better question will be "how will you be", correct?

It's not morning here
What time zone are you in?

It is now 1 pm (1300 hrs) here as I am in Central Daylight Savings time and is that not a good place to be?
