I was neither defending nor attacking. As to labels, these are meaningless to me. I certainly am not going to change my behavior to satisfy someone else's arbitrary sensibilities. Ultimately, this forum's debates are just like every other forum's debates. The same drama plays out.

That would be like stating your religion in a sea of zealots. It might be fun for some, but it is ultimately futile. -- Dave Hayes - Consultant - Altadena CA, USA - dave@jetcafe.org >>>> *The opinions expressed above are entirely my own* <<<< It is only knowledge that will destroy bias.
