LH--

All of a sudden it's a "petty verbal victory". So sorry it offends you to be asked for evidence of a cherished belief around here. That only makes it clear that you have no evidence. But maybe somebody else does.

It's only a quest for "victory" in your mind. Not every question is a contest--though it may be for you. That attitude shows more about you than about anybody else.

I know it may be hard for you to grasp, but sometimes people actually would like to learn something about a world issue--in fact I would--and as I've said, I don't claim to have all the facts. I've learned a lot on Mudcat--including from you.

So perhaps you could just let it go and see if somebody else has more evidence than you.


Frank--

I would agree there are many who see shades of gray--but Don's observation is valid for some Mudcatters. Obviously not you--as anybody who reads your posts can see.
