(GAVol @ May 20 said:One man's moot is another man's mute. :dunno:
Moot means obsolete, immaterial, it does not mean arguable.(OldVol @ May 24 said:A mute question is just that, muted.
A moot quesion, on the other hand, is arguable.
So, in this instance, mute question would be appropriate, because another disaster like 05 means the question is mute, or undebatable.
Now, if he goes 8/4, it is then a moot question, which allows room for discussion.![]()
