Lindy, you've proven yourself capable of forming a compelling argument, both researched and supported. That's when you're at your best, and that's when I really enjoy reading, and am challenged by, your contributions here.

Anyway, the personal attacks you sometimes make, the pronouncements--as above--that positions with which you disagree have no meaning...such things just don't find traction, and are major distractions from your otherwise thoughtful arguments.
