    The problem with the dynamic of conversation is that it involves two or more people and you can never account for the other person(s)'s personality.

    I personally think evidence is found in compromise. You have to be able to compromise to reach the common ground. My take on conversation is very Aikido-like. I let the other person drive the context and meaning of things because I know that I am willing to try and meet them even more than half way if necessary, which it usually is merely do to the inherent egoism of people(i.e. how can our perspectives not be one sided, when we are one sided).
