It's too late at night here to discuss DoF. Besides, if we're to
discuss the depth of French then Phillipe will have to be involved and
he's probably gone to bed by now.

"Didn't" is what places it in the past. What if I change the
sentence slightly and add quotes? Didn't McLuhan say: "The mangle
is the message." Adding "that" doesn't seem to fit at all there.
I didn't perceive that Chris implied that "that" had any particular
relevance.
"That" in that context seems to be a conjunction or perhaps a relative
pronoun
depending how you read it.
Let's have another DOF thread, shall we?
