  Re: How to conduct an interview and not actually listen
 
It's more of a debate than an interview. Two people who can't define their terms cover ground rapidly while discovering how much they dislike each other. I found the remarks by Card to be in character for him, a character I've paid attention to (...) (23 years ago, 19-Aug-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: How to conduct an interview and not actually listen
 
(...) Agree wholeheartedly! She tells how she attempts to get the answers she wants, and complains when she doesn't. Although it's interesting that she actually recognises this & documents it. The interview would probably look a lot better if all (...) (23 years ago, 19-Aug-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  How to conduct an interview and not actually listen
 
(URL) I think that is about the most self serving piece (and worst interview) I've ever seen in Salon...(1) IMHO this interviewer epitomizes much of what's wrong with american journalism in one nice neat package. Agree/disagree?(2) 1 - which is very (...) (23 years ago, 18-Aug-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

  Re: Free Speech versus Trademark?
 
I heard about this on the radio here in the UK. Parallels where drawn with this case which was settled out of court between Hirsts and Humbrol: (URL) was inferred that Humbrol’s case would have been thrown out of a US court. Scott A (...) (23 years ago, 17-Aug-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

  Re: Gun Control in the UK
 
(...) Another liberal myth shot down in flames. What's that you say? America has a higher per capita death rate in gun violence? That just means we're more proficient shots. Drat - there's that USMC brainwashing coming out again. }:~D Bill (23 years ago, 16-Aug-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Excellent article
 
(...) That's a fantastic question. But not specifically. The several books by Adele Faber and Elaine Mazlish are considered classics by those who believe that 'freedom without license' is the way to go, but they are actually somewhat more (...)

  Free Speech versus Trademark?
 
While reading MSNBC today, I came across this interesting article: (URL) too much of a hurry now to develop my own thoughts further, I'd like to pose a question. Recalling issues like the Concentration Camp sets, Spite Your Face's 2001 LEGO parody, (...) (23 years ago, 14-Aug-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Gun Control in the UK
 
Just ran across this article: (URL) . What I thought most interesting in the article was this "Police fear that the increasing use of guns on the streets, now almost an everyday occurrence in boroughs such as Hackney or Lambeth, is spilling over (...)

(...) Do you have any references to good books that describe your ideas about child-rearing? Especially how to handle a transition from an authoritarian regime to one such as you describe? Thanks, /Eric McC/ (23 years ago, 14-Aug-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Excellent article
 
I'm not sure if i'm not clarifying myself well enough or if you are simply prodding me. I think I've said all that I need to on this topic, but I'll mull it over for a couple of days just in case. In short, i'm not trying to change your mind, simply (...) (23 years ago, 12-Aug-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

  Re: Excellent article
 
(...) If you mean that you think I'm being too general, then we disagree. If you mean you think that what I meant was something more specific than what I wrote, then that is not correct.

  Re: Excellent article
 
(...) Of course children deserve love and fair treatment, but it doesn't make sense to me to say we (adults) shouldn't tell kids what to do. Perhaps you're being too general with that statement. Parents ARE here to tell kids (and show them) what to (...) (23 years ago, 12-Aug-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: DMCA
 
(...) You're missing the point. If it was a copyright infringement to play music at a club, there would be no independent clubs in operation. The only legal clubs allowed would be properties of those same copyright holders that prohibit movies from (...) (23 years ago, 11-Aug-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

  Re: Excellent article
 
(...) Sure. I'm deeply disturbed by the seeming perception that the only two states that a child can occupy are a) subordinate inferiors and b) overindulged family tyrants. Why is it so tough for people to grasp that there is an actually fair way to (...) (23 years ago, 11-Aug-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
