Erik, I don't think this is intended to be a place for such debate. We don't have any structure on the list to manage it, although your call for a referee would head us that way, which is not necessarily a bad thing... but it would be a rather large leap from an almost-anything-goes discussion, which I regard as brainstorming, to some kind of formal disputation forum, as DB says. It's something of a relief to see a bit of a flame war crop up without the participation of the usual suspect, but hey, guys, can you both try to lower the heat level? I see name-calling and there's no call for that. It's dangerously close to being personal attacks. And now, a completely personal request... could you each state your positions in brief? I'm lost.
