Re: You can't make this up.
And I never claimed that you made that claim. My response was to a different poster and I merely summarized what you wrote, not much differently to how you summarized it yourself.
I thought my point is pretty obvious (although addressed to a different poster), and it sounds like you did get it. My point is: "The problem is "true life incidents" aren't a story."
But if that wasn't obvious enough, I used the example of someone suggesting that I write a screenplay based on a single, true, real-life incident and how I explained that wasn't a story to that person.
I even said that I may have misunderstood the intent of the OP and apologized if I had. Not trying to be belligerent -- but I think covered all the bases in that post.
