Now there you go bashing Detroit! Being down on the street in Detroit does not equal danger or mugging! I think I am done with this issue since I am really failing to express what I am trying to say and I am very concerned that I am, as you have aptly pointed out, been defensive on all this. The inability to express a worthwhile idea is mine, and I claim my failure here, it is all mine, and I am going to shut up. Not because of anything you say, Bob, to be sure, but because I am feeling like Pauline Kael advocating a movie that she adored (and she could go on and on, although with far, far greater skills than I) while also feeling like the Grinch because I am underwhelmed by Travelogue I have heard thus far, and I need to, as they say, peace out. > Vince wrote: > > and that others will differ with me, that is way cool because the value of > > this community is the 800+ insights, not any one person's opinion. > > > Bob responds: > There you go - even if 797+ of them disagree with you ;-) > It would really scare me, and cause me to reconsider everything that I believe, if 797+ agreed with me!
