John P - I am truly puzzled by your post of 26 Feb 12 - 01:51 PM . You seem to assume in it that you and I disagree on a whole lot of fundamental stuff that in fact we agree on.

I don't get that.

I feel like you're arguing with someone else whom you have mistaken for me...or you think that I am someone very different from whom I actually am. It just doesn't connect.

You ask rhetorical questions that have no bearing on my actual position...although you clearly think that they do. And that sure does puzzle me. Perhaps you are mistaking my tone of voice or something?
