<snip> An excellent example of a fanatic at work. "I give now quarter because I am Right. No other point of view has any validity, is is JUST PLAIN WRONG." I could do that too, but I prefer to discuss the matter. Sometimes, I am wrong. Oftentimes, there is merit in my opponents point of view. He might be wrong, but I can't tell that before listening and understanding what he has to say. Then, perhaps we can discuss it further and maybe come to an agreement: if not, then we can part on good terms, each understanding the other. Fanatical ranting with never persuade anyone with the ability to think, to question. -- Cheers John Summerfield -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
