What, pray tell, is "a truly appalling level of ignorance". Is that good or
bad? Do we want that or want that to go away? Do we want a high level? Or
a low level? Hmmm you pick words carelessly I think. You should consider
sticking to OT. We are more forgiving there.

I thought that was a very perceptive observation--and an accurate one.
I've
seen many, many posts here--from both extremes of the political
spectrum--that
display a truly appalling level of ignorance. I'm not going to throw
stones on
someone because they hold opinions based on faulty data or fallacious
reasoning--but these discussions invariable descend into namecalling and
ill-will.
