I just deleted several posts in this thread. Before I lock it, let me just remind folks to keep the left-right ideology OFF OF THIS FORUM! I now that isn't always easy, but consider (and appreciate) this: There are a number of people in this world whom I greatly admire and respect, but you will never see me post about them here because I know they would envoke a negative reaction from people who don't share my ideology. I certainly COULD post about them because, after all, this is my forum. But I don't out of respect for the members whom I know would have a viseral reaction. It would be a very quick way to cause the atmosphere here to go down hill, so I try my darndest to keep my ideological musings to myself. I wish others would show the same consideration.
