This thread is going better than I expected. While I thought there may be a few with the ability to discuss the topic questions, I gather they are doing their thinking on their own, don't give a small rodent's posterior, and/or too timid to enter the fray.

Still, I like the numbers. Some 700 views, with only 11 individuals posting some 30 dissents, which amounts to less than a half of one percent vocal opposition. Right now good ol' Bush would love those odds.

While RCU's "hits" do not measure the actual individuals viewing a thread, the numbers do represent that the dissenting posters are definitely a minority group. Hey, you minority people, you just might qualify for some kind of government handout.

Too bad there are so few of you. Your numbers don't suggest any immediate stock-rise in the crying-towel industry.
