I see an opportunity for a fight with mikeh:

Double followed by 4D is logically forcing!

I may have to explain the logic to my partner though. :(
Please note: I am interested in boring, bog standard, 2/1.

If I stay unlurked, it will be because I don't fight anymore. I may debate. I may even argue, but I won't fight....if I do...I'll be gone again. I really didn't like reading some of my old posts, and hope to never get back to that way of posting again:)

And of course, I haven't actually expressed an opinion on whether double then 4♦ should, could, or shouldn't be forcing. I simply don't know, which is why I selected a different start rather than run the (forseeable) risk of having to guess how partner would read it. Life has taught me that if I don't know what I mean (whether bidding or in real life) the odds are that partner won't know what I mean either:)

I think you should stay unlurked.
... that would still not be conclusive proof, before someone wants to explain that to me as well as if I was a 5 year-old. - gwnn
