Little Hawk...I can't decide whether some of this is fun, work, knee-jerk response, moral duty or programmed response to on-screen **error messages**....

What it ultimately is, is my attempt to clarify my own thinking and opinions using the best tools I have available, and to leave at least one reasonably coherent set of alternative views about some of these issues for others to read. Max claims these posts may be around for years yet, and who knows...I might be famous! ;>)

I do know we are being collected by Google's spiders now, as I looked up the phrase "self fullfilling hypothesis", and found one of my own recent posts as the 3rd to last hit!....I guess your opinions are at least as easy to find, if someone puts in the right keywords.
