For a number of reasons, I think it is much healthier in a discussion, if we express our own ideas on an issue, without attacking the ideas of another. I understand this is contrary to the Internet Code, but I think it makes for better discussion. I admit that I'm guilty of violating my own suggestion at times. I think that oftentimes when we actually understand what others are thinking, we can come to an agreement. But too often, we get fixed on the battle rather than on the ideas. It would be nice if we could be a little less aggressive and a little more open-minded in our discussions here. -Joe-
