Bald Eagle,

I know that awkward feeling. While in real life I do not mind to have the final word sometimes, here in Mudcat I'd rather not have it. This has been dealt with in the first few posts of the Kiling the thread thread.

I for one was curious about your economic arguments and am glad for your post (I do not at all mind reading an opinion I do not share), but the many specific details are just bejond my knowledge and so I decided that's it for me (I hate dilettating on fileds where I have not enough knowledge).

Sometimes most is said and I do not at all mind if a political thread stops before the nasty posts start (seems e.g. that nearly all thread about US politics end with the gun question after the hundredth post).

But with your post and my post who knows, maybe there'll be a reprise of this thread.
