Besides which, even when certain posters do mention logical fallacies in the pursuit of debunking, they then generally go on to explain why it's a fallacy--and what the correct explanation in fact is. It's not just calling out the names of fallacies as debunking tools. Sometimes, strangely enough, someone using a lot of logical fallacies is wrong. Who'da thunk it?
