48. As a reminder of something I told you recently: I do not play those types of call-and-response games.

I don't spoon-feed information to adults. I don't waste my time providing answers to questions with obvious answers, or with answers that can be found by anyone who's ever heard of Google and who has the language skills to construct a query. And as a rule (in case anyone is ever tempted in the future) I also don't waste my time responding to bad-faith "sea-lioning" questions; and I don't do research for anyone who pretends to not understand; or who tries to convince me that they need clarification with self-evident facts and concepts. So... I'm afraid you'll have to figure it out yourself, Emile.
