This is exactly the problem with Paddy and people who think like him. For them the 
world is divided into supporters and opponents. Supporters are supposed to applaud 
each other and opponents are supposed to abuse each other. They cannot conceive of the 
possibility that someone on one side of an argument would commend another on the 
opposite side just because he/she makes a valid point. 

To me Allwyn is doing a splendid job because he raises substantive issues that can be 
debated in a civilized manner. He has done it regarding bogus therapies, and also 
regarding what constitutes historical fact. I agree with him on the latter issue and 
disagree with him on the former. I don't care if he is my supporter or not. To me it 
is not either with us or with the terrorists.

Cheers,

Santosh
