Well, yes...
I have found that I am generally smart enough for most the things that come up in my life including this dicussion. That is why I said what I said. I have problems with PC too but in the context of the current issue, as to appropriate conduct in here vis-a-vis the 'turn-off' factor, perhaps the distinction between being 'forthright' and being rude should be discussed seriously by someone other than those of us who like direct talk without the frills. I don't suppose for a moment you think I am incapable of or shy of being very direct!:shock:
Just saying that if political discussions are going to be a feature here it may not be approriate for some of us to be setting the rules of engagement. I believe in proportional force in kind, but am not about to suggest that as a categorical imperative.
I know what your saying and have no basic problem with it or you-but maybe we are not the right ones to be contributing to this issue.:nod:
