There's a big difference! The question you asked in the journal is NOT a yes or no question.

well i dont get it.

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003

ok, now i don't either!

How did you understand it one minute and then not all of the sudden when starship didn't? The question itself is understandable BUT it does not go along with the poll. A question that starts with "Is it or is it not.." cannot be answered with yes or no. Because your yes could either mean "it is" or "yes it is not"
