I will. I have good reason to do so.

>Facts based on silence -- now what are you babbling about?

Your use of "Did you notice he said nothing about" appears to be an
example of drawing a conclusion from silence.

Your use of "now what are you babbling about" appears to be an attempt
to engage in a personal attack rather than having a rational discussion
of the subject at hand.
