More like a desperate struggle for freedom at work, I would say.>> I'm officially bowing out of this conversation. There is no point in discussing a subject with someone who blatantly ignores and irrationally refuses to discuss requested source material when it is placed in front of them. There is true futility in debating with someone who irrationally refuses to agree on set definitions of the terms being argued about. If I remain in this discussion, it's going to devolve into a rather venemous flame war, and I won't be responsible for that. It also may allow me to lose the nasty taste in my mouth everytime I read list posts these days. To those who remain mentally and emotionally involved, I will make a simple plea: Attack the topics, but not the person speaking them. It may seem to easy to call someone a 'Nazi' or something similar, but it's wrong to do so. You don't call someone names because they disagree with your political position. And if you don't like that reason, consider this one: name-calling only weakens your position, not his (or hers, as the case may be). IAAMOAC Jon [EMAIL PROTECTED]
