I am fully capable of laughing, although the thought of Hawaiians on skates playing hockey is more frightening than humorous. But you wrote: "That was a rhetorical question, not the first line of a joke." Now you imply that you meant it as a joke. I can't keep up. Anyhow, I took it as a rhetorical question, because that's what you indicated, but one that required a response since it was predicated on a misunderstanding of what I had previously written.

Just to be clear, I never supported my position with a single word about making money. That was someone else's post. If you go back and read all of my contributions to this exchange, you will not find any reference by me to the money issue.

I really want to be done with this exchange, but your point above only confirms my point. Those children can play soccer/futbol as you describe because the nature of the game ("nature" being the root of "natural" -- an important word in one of my earlier posts in this exchange) is such that those sorts of conditions and equipment allow it. Ice is a natural part of hockey. By the way, I would like to see artificial turf eliminated from all baseball.
Oh, what have I wrought by writing that?
And see, I can laugh:
