LEJ--

A quick look at the other threads dealing with this subject are already showing that the time for worthwhile, rational discussion is over. It happens every time.

When the loonies and hysterics begin to dominate the threads is precisely when I pull out of the discussion, because no meaningful discussion can then take place.

Of course, people are free to carry on conversations with loonies and hysterics--it is, after all, the internet.
