Two points: 1. The pollies are making the mistake of judging us, individuals all, by THEIR standards.

2. When the pollies ask these provocative rhetorical questions, they bait us into writing long, profound, defensive replies, all insightful and well done--which effectively prevent us from searching the Net or elsewhere for useful articles and information to post on this forum.

Old Bit forgot point 3: When the [historiclly-proven correct] ask these provocative rhetorical questions, they bait [deliberately misleading idiots] into writing long, profound, defensive replies, all insightful and well done--which effectively prevent [pathetic memetic doomers] from scaring innocent individuals, adding stress to families, and generally increasing the amount of fear, uncertainty, and dread on the planet.

Bad choice my friend. Bad, bad, bad.

First, #3 is yours not hers. You rail here becasuse she's effectively bitten you in YOUR past (she too was addicted to stuffing dirty laundry down dirty throats) causing you to entirely miss the point of her post.

"searching...for usefull articles and information" as opposed to wallowing in merry-go-round debate would seem a worthwhile effort for Oct '99. Pity, as she notes, precious time was wasted.

ps: AR, you're lucky she doesn't hang out around here.
