Nice analysis, Dave. Indeed, I wouldn't want any of the options listed; my
preference is for each to ignore the other, but that's beyond my power (and
apparantly, their power). Lacking my favorite choice, I have pretty much
chosen to banish myself for the most part in the last 6 months or so. I
started reading again right a bit after the 11th, because there was some
good strong debate going, with little noise. However, it seems to have
again degraded into Guns, God, Scott & Larry.
No point in listening to the radio if all you pick up is static. (No matter
where the static is coming from, or how well-informed it is.)

James
