That phrase doesn't mean what you think it means.

It is NOT a *circular argument*.


** The term "to beg the question" has an important meaning that is now
lost because of continual misuse in the media and elsewhere.

Likely not one person in 50 could say with any accuracy what " to beg the
question " really means.

Oh yeah? I'd got an HP 8648A signal generator here which is more than happy
to produce FM at base frequencies anywhere between 100kHz and 1GHz. Output is
some decent fraction of a watt -- *far* more than enough to violate FCC part
15 regulations with any decent antenna connected to its output.

Hey, what do you call the GNURadio USRP (http://www.ettus.com/)? It's just a
pair of PCinterfaced DACs and ADCs after all. I guess they were completely
off-base in suggesting it could somehow be used as "a radio." You'd better
write them a message quick...

Note that there's software for it to make it an oscilloscope, signal
generator, FM transmitter, HDTV receiver... surely we ought to ban such
devices ASAP!

Telling someone off when you've lost a debate is not considered good form, you
know. :)
