You may be right, up to a point.  The opinion I expressed was just
that -- an opinion -- and it may have been wrong.  I tend to be wrong
about as often as I am right, sometimes more.  However, I have no
sinister plan to shut down debate, which is what you seem to imply.
Debate away, please.  When I made my admittedly dismissive post, I was
of the opinion that the issue was akin to flogging a dead horse.  I am
still half of that opinion, but am feeling gently dissuaded.  Who
knows what tomorrow will bring?
