(...) I made it up myself. ::rant mode set at 11:: My point would be that the traditional, and especially current, uses of the words "radical," "conservative," "liberal," and etc. are so abused as to no longer make any sense at all.

But since I've had the "privilege" of riding in a taxi driven by a Cockney I know that for the accent to be even close to correct it has to be completely unintelligible to an American. (...)

		Re: The position of authority (was: Handgun Death Rate)
Could you clarify this paragraph for me, please? (...) This confused me.

		Re: Why the founding fathers limited government scope (was Re: Rolling Blackouts
Dave, I don't have a particularly tight rebuttal to your issue with the roads. I do believe that the nature of our world/nation/whatever would change with the coming of Libertopia.
