[QUOTE]Originally posted by The Explorer: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Grumman: [b]''At the very least, i.e. when putting the question of geographical precision aside, if regions are to be typified by latitudinal/longitudinal directional indicators like "north, south, east and west", then there should be consistency in grouping regions that occupy the same general latitudes and longitudes respectively, with a single standard respective to the said parameters -- which in this case, either are geographical in nature; likewise should be the case, when the "Sahara" [which for some "odd" reason, became THE main geographical marker/divisor in "Western" discourse, pertaining to African affairs] is applied as a [geographical] dichotomous tool -- for instance, one can't say that say, Nigeria, is "sub-Saharan" and that Ethiopia isn't. That amounts to applying a double standard using a singular parameter -- "the supposed location vis-a-vis the Sahara" as the basis of classification.''[/b] None of that is my argument.[/QUOTE]Never said it was. Can't sense when something is being argued or not, and when something is being supplemented? I was going to cite just Alive/what box when commenting, but since you were discussing the same matter, I decided to add on to your exchange. Hope that helps. [/QB][/QUOTE]
