I'm going to stop arguing with pudge now. Not because he's convinced me he's right, but I think we both understand the other's point of view - we just disagree massively. Neither of us will change the other's mind, so it's a bit of a waste of time.
pudge says:
But I will gladly accept a root beer, either before or after my team beats yours in the next Quiz Show.
...so it's nice to see he's not lost his sense of humour :)
