Ditto :giggle:Wow...I just finished this book and noticed the same reference as well! I re-read it several times over. I even looked up the term "ad hominem" just to double check that I was reading his reference correctly. (I was). Kudos again to him. He recognized what went down.
(And on a side note, I finished the book on the flight into SFO just one week ago today...terrible tragedy)
ad hominem. Adverb 1. (of an argument or reaction) Arising from or appealing to the emotions and not reason or logic. 2. Attacking an opponent's motives or character rather than the policy or position they maintain.
Great word/term for this gang!!!! No reason or logic. Think we could also use it for a particular group of 12 we all know. :banghead:
