I missed this ref, it's even better:

I'm in the 4.9% camp at the moment.

So it seems you Libertarians are a microcosm of the rest of our society on this
issue!  (Well, maybe if the rest of society were polled, there might be
substantially more than 8.8% in the indecisive or confusing category! :-) ) I
must say I am completely surprised that only 2.3% of you feel that it is not
the government's place to take a position on abortion.  I would have thought
this would be the view most compatible with Libertarian philosophy.  Why have
what is mostly a bunch of lawyers in Washington making decisions for us on what
Scott A. called "issues of conscience"?  I begin to see how, from across the
Atlantic, our views must seem awfully peculiar.

Anyway, thanks for enlightening me--

Maggie C.
