Thoughts on Steel Manning (and who on Yahoo Answers) does it best?

A straw man is a misrepresentation of someone's position or argument that is easy to defeat: a "steel man" is an improvement of someone's position or argument that is harder to defeat than their originally stated position or argument.

    Don't know, don't care since all the chicks tell me, "Nobody does it better.".

    I don't keep track of such things, and this is not a forum for debate, but some users act like it is

    No one really improves anyone's positions here for "defeat", as this isn't a forum for debate. People ask a question, and others respond. There is extremely little back and forth. Most things are forgotten as soon as you click off the page... like this question and answer for instance.
