| Dec 13, 2011 at 20:32 | comment | added | alcas | +1, though I want to emphasize that "almost" and "all but" are not really that synonymous. An "almost convinced" person is quite a bit more skeptical than an "all but convinced" person. If you are all but convinced, you don't really need any more convincing; if you are almost convinced, however, you do. | |
