Regards,
If you don't feel strongly in favor of them, why are you trying to
make a case for them so strongly? Just for kicks? We don't need a
"devil's advocate" at this point in the discussion...
Hi Larry,
I don't *feel* strongly in favour or against them, but can see
advantages and disadvantages on both sides. Feeling strongly is not the
same as having a strong argument for your point of view, so just because
some people have expressed strong opinions against, I don't see why I
shouldn't challenge their reasoning, even if that does mean playing
devil's advocate.
Which is better: basing the decision on the gut feeling of a handful of
people who happen to be here now, or basing it on sound reasoning after
thinking through the implications?
Regards,
