I greatly resent Big Mick's calling this "controversy" a "tempest in a teapot" in his post above. I derive a substantial portion of my livelihood from the sale of teapots. A well executed teapot is the epitome of the potter's art. Calling this bit of idiocy a "tempest in a teapot" is an insult to teapots everywhere. If you must use a "tempest" metaphor, please refer to it as a "tempest in a toilet".
