Maybe there should be a heading for arguments like this one, the "grounding
through quickenings", and others in the FAQ. Then when one finally
meets FASA people one can whip out the FAQ (yes, I do carry it with me
all the time, don't you?) and get definitive answers (ha! like they
could really give them). It would be neat to see how short a time it
takes to get ten pages of these things, and it would also act like those
questions you're supposed to ask from aliens, once you meet them, to
check if they really have knowledge humans don't.... :-)

That'd have to be a seperate FAQ. Probably worth creating, though
if somebody's got the time (hint! hint!)
