   Reminds me of an old riddle.   
   How many legs does a sheep have, if you call   
   its tail a leg?   
      
      
      
      
   ......................   
   It has 4 legs. Calling its tail a leg doesn't make   
   it a leg.   
      
   I guess I failed to raise the level of discourse high enough.
