Carrol -- I think you are right a lot of the time, and often
insightful even when I think you are wrong, but I swear to God you
must have some version of this assigned to a macro on your computer.
It's all well and good to note that such things live in contexts, but
I would be much more interested in your thoughts on whether it was the
right thing to do *in this context* than in your just saying we have
to judge it within a specific context. I'll leave it up to you to
decide how to frame the context. I also get Lance's point about
finger-waving, but this is serious business, and I have to admit that
it feels to me like dodging the question. Maybe that's me being
bourgeois or something, but there it is.
