> Surprised as you may be, I never intended this to turn into a debate. One thing to learn quick about me is that if an argument doesn't make sense to me, I'll speak up and give an example of why. I'm just not a big fan of things being generalized in such a broad manner (even though I do this too). There is usually at least one example that will show otherwise. This is just something that I can't help but do. Don't ever take any of it personally or as an attack against you in any way. For some reason, I just have this natural ability to argue and debate even when I don't intend to. You'll probably see this a lot from me. Heck...I did the same thing on another thread below this one dealing with the boycott. The idea didn't make sense to me, so I gave specific examples of why. I'm just a details person who has a hard time seeing the big picture of an argument. Feel free to just ignore those types of posts from me. I won't be hurt. :-)

Thanks. I wasn't taking it personally. I used to enjoy debating when I was younger. Now it just aggravates me. It tends to go on and on with neither person ever seeing the other's point of view so I don't bother anymore. So hopefully there won't be any need for smacking you around. :-)K
