Can you see that it's a pun using the word " blind " two different ways? Let's not get confused here. Re Silver: >I don't mean to sound harsh but I'm beginning to think that Larry isn't intelligent enough to see that. Silver L.E: Well you do sound harsh, and mean-spirited and insulting as fits your character as you well know. And to say you don't mean it is just more hypocricy and lies.
