DMB sees offence and accusation as a source of mild amusement. As I said - water off a duck's back is the problem - ignorance of the issues, possibly, as you go on to suggest a kind of "macho" stance of the "real" American. Being offended is for wimps. Thanks again Matt. And it's so left-brain, so rationally autistic, that I cannot understand why someone as intelligent as dmb - with his history addressing the mythos - doesn't see the immense irony in the MoQ context - this is not just "any" discussion list. This is the real "offence".
