everyone that has an occasional drink,or has even one periodically or even a pint a day ,because they feel like it is an alocholic now,ms gray must be one too,since she goes to the pub and makes alternative arrangements,

Oh, brother. You know that's not what I said.


however [as founder of parc] I hardly consider her to be someone who is viewing the situation with impartiality, any more than I consider Healy Rae to be impartial

As someone whose life will be affected by the new law, you aren't viewing the situation with impartiality either. One would assume that you started this thread in order to hear the views of impartial observers.... but apparently not, judging by your final comment:


Sharon,stop digging.

I'm not "digging", just pointing out the holes that already exist in your arguments sgainst this law. If you mean that you want me to stop looking up information on this subject, sorry but you're the one who got me interested in finding out more about it. If you mean that you want me to stop posting comments to this thread, then is it not okay for anyone else who disagrees with you to post comments??? Either way, ordering me to "stop digging" accomplishes nothing; I am under no obligation to obey your order.
