Just a short note to say that I've followed these tete-a-tete jousts very closely .... for the most part very educational and intelligent thoughts have been expressed and more importantly, presented without animosity or name-calling. All parties in this thread have made excellent legitimate points. One of those debates where no one is right.... no one is wrong-type discussions... as far as this reader is concerned.

It was enjoyable for me to simply take on the role of a "lurker" in this instance.
