BTW, Lizzie - Honestly not wanting to be confrontational or contraversial but have you ever considered that when people cannot understand some of your points - As happens with me quite often - It could indicate that we have a different way of learning ourselves? I, for one, cannot get through long passionate arguments that have no structure. It is just my way. To be labeled cold, indifferent or worse because I think differently is no different to being thought of as 'a bit thick really' for the same thing. In my opinion anyway.

Maybe we ALL need to change our views - Not just 'them'?

Cheers
