>>"That's what I asked you. What's your name?"
>>"That's what I told you. Watt's my name."
>>A long pause, and then from Watt, "Is this James Brown?"
>>"No, this is Knott."
>>"Please tell me your name."
>>"Will Knott."
>> YOU LEFT THE TALKERS AT A POINT WHERE THEY WERE TOTALLY CONFUSED.

>>"Why not?"
>>"Huh? What do you mean why not?"
>>"Yeah! Why won't you tell me your name?"
>>"But I told you my name!"
>>"Didn't you say you will not?"

>>"Watt's my name."
>>"How the hell do I know? I am asking you!"
>>"Look I have been very patient and I have told you my name and you have

>>"I have told you my name so many times and it is you who have not told me
>>yours yet."
>>"Of course not!"
>>"See, you even know my name!"
>>"Of course not!"
>>"Then why do you keep saying of course Knott?"
>>"Because I don't."
>>
>>[Pause]
>>
>> "What is your name?"
>>"See, you know my name!"
>>"Of course not!"

>>"So why didn't you say it before?"
>>"I told you so many times!"
>>"You never said Wright before"
>>"Of course I did."
>>"Ok I won't argue any more. Do you know my name?"
>>"I do not."
>>"Well, there you go, now we know each other's name."
>>"I do not!"
>>"Good!"
