Don't forget what my purpose here is. It's to stimulate debate, and by
doing
so, cause people to think. I donąt much care *what* they think, so
long as
they exercise some mentation. That's why I'm very, very hard to insult
and I
don't really mind being wrong (though I seldom am). I never take it
personally because I know that sometimes it necessary to pierce the
Usenet
persona to get to the real truths involved, and sometimes that takes
vigorous and even contumacious debate to get beyond the sneering veneer
and
to sort out the Netwits (of whom there are many) from those with some
modicum of wit and intelligence (who can be quite hard to find).
And most of my intended audience are the lurkers, of whom there are
also
many, if my private email is any indicator, who enjoy the give and
take.

I think that's Scott's way of saying, "Whoops! I was wrong on that
issue. frtzw906 was right."
Thanks, Scott.
No, it's my way of saying it doesn't matter to me who is wrong or right.
It's the journey that's important, not the destination.
