I can't figure out how calling someone a weasel can be *not*
offensive...

My apologies.  Bad choice of terms on an international mailing list :(

Using "weasel words" does not one a weasel make :).  It describes a
use of language, or phraseology, not the individual.  Better phrasing
would have been "that's just another way of saying..."

Tho I suppose one who habitually employs weasel-wording might
reasonably be suspected of being a weasel :)

Regards,
Jim
