I think that we all know what you meant, Fernando; you have excellent  
English.

"Argument" is a beautifully flexible word, as Chuck as written; the  
meaning about which you were concerned is perhaps better described  
with the word "quarrel" ...

... even though "quarrel" also means the arrow (or bolt) from a  
crossbow ;-)
