Yes, I know. I'm trying to figure out how to quell this useless behaviour. I don't seem to have figured it out yet. It is a part of the overall solution the extremists' danger, though. > I have learned a lot from the few >*reasonable* posters in this thread, both those I agree with *and* those I >don't...and there are even a few people in the discussion with whom I >disagree but they still showed respect for my opinion.

You do understand that the ones who cannot (and I mean that they are incapable) think objectively and discuss all aspects of a problem have to speak this way. They also have to appear to be a member of what is currently perceived as the majority. This week somebody has decided that I must be portrayed as stupid. The first line written had to associate me with Bush and Cheney. I found this extremely amusing and interesting, albeit sad. In order for me to tweak out my hidden assumptions, I need to have discussions with people who have a different perspective. /BAH

Not only is it a threat, but it has already begun to alter my lifestyle. My goal is to ensure that it alter 100% of my lifestyle, if I'm allowed to exist. /BAH
