SRS let's let it go ok? You obviously just don't want to see my point, and that's okay too. We are approaching the book from entirely different perspectives, that's all. And I do recognize long-winded, tedious, second-hand scholastic arrogance when I see it. I avoid it like the plague whenever possible.

They say that Canadians have the tendency to respect diversity, to harness discontent (and use that energy to create the new), to agree to disagree. So I agree to disagree with your assessment of this book as 'trash'. If you choose to base your views of the world on other people's opinions instead of on direct experience, that's your 'sacred' choice. I choose differently, that's all.

PS you don't know me AT ALL, and I'm not fond of blowing my own horn or name-dropping, by the way. I have no reason to explain who I am, what I've studied, who is in my family tree or who I've worked with to someone who can't resist attacking everything I say. Why would you believe it anyway? Just a waste of time, IMO.

What I've said comes from the heart, and it is my truth. And now I'm off to enjoy my day!

Peace
