There you go again!

Tom, you're just going to have to be grateful I'm around to correct your hyperbole, save you from yourself, so to speak.

You don't have to agree with Chomsky, you don't have to like Chomsky, you don't have to respect Chomsky. And, you do yourself a disservice if you just call him nuts.

He's extremely bright, his points are well thought out, and he comes to logical conclusions. You don't have to agree with him, but to try to imply he's nuts is crazy in itself.

I don't like George Will, for instance. I disagree with the guy, don't have much respect for him. And, the guy is very bright, rational, and makes his points well. If I can't come up with an opposite argument which is just as rational and well thought out I would have to re-examine my position.

But to just say he's nuts would be crazy.

You're welcome, by the way. Always willing to help save a guy from himself.
