A philosophy tutor of mine once said that the views of anyone who has not studied the subject they are discussing can be pretty safely discounted as of no value.

Autolycos's law of astrological ignorance states that anyone who is a fierce adverse critic of astrology is certain never to have made any kind of serious study of it.


Exactly. And that's why I'm taking Clinton's last comment with a big grain of salt. Anyone who has seriously studied astrology for even a short period of time knows -- not believes, but knows (there's a mighty important difference between those two words!) -- the valuable truths and insights it has to offer.

And yes, I do know all about wordiness and Gemini Rising, Ivor. Gives a bit of the "jack-of-all-trades" syndrome too, at least in my case.
