Mike R: Thanks for all the good sense, as ever . .

As for Grab - he said he wouldn't use "Nazi" as an epithet ('cause he could always do better) - then proceeded TO use it in his last line. So he's either a bird of little brain or a deliberate troll (my money's on the latter).

And - LonesomeEJ - you miss the point on "reserving" words; Nazi DOES refer to Hitler's hoardes . . what we're saying is we shouldn't loose sight of that and allow its meaning to be diluted.

Also - like others here - I take it as self-evident that any view I express, unless I cite evidence to support it, is seen by everyone as "IMO".
