Cross posted, thank you Joe.

Keith and I disagree, about many things, but I admire him as an honest and free thinking individual.
The important thing about free speech is that you always try to be completely accurate in what you say and what you quote, and that your beliefs and reasonable and sincere....at least to yourself.

You are correct about the difference in mindset between many UKers and those from the US, I find your attitude admirable and positive, while many here practice a "faith" of political ideology, which is insidious and negative.

I salute you and your countrymen...and women.
