How about a truce? I've been trying to ignore the lower points of this
thread for days, but since it shows no signs of fading, I propose that the
controversy be moved to the level of a structured debate. This could be
done online with a panel of judges chosen from among neutral lurkers, and
equal representation of midwesterners and outsiders. Two teams, ten
exchanges, ending with an online handshake. Where else but in cyberspace
could logic and emotion meet more equally, and in the process serve to
educate the rest of us to these important issues? Who's up for it? Bruce,
if this violates any NANFA bylaws, I will respectfully withdraw my proposal.
