I can't blame you too much for wanting to leave this discussion. Many have
been inhospitable and personal.
You did start this particular thread with a comment that I doubt you can
defend though. I've made specific criticisms of what you've written and I
don't think you've addressed any of them in a substantial sense. If you can
see your way past my directness, I'm interested in understanding the basis of
your viewpoint; no name calling, no personal attacks.
If there's an inner circle or clique here, I want nothing to do with it. At
times you've made generalizations about MTBers that really don't hold in my
view. I see a evidence of independent, reasonable thought from a significant
proportion here. Ignore the others and give us a chance. It would be a cop out
to assume I don't agree because I'm toeing a party line.
