The circle, as a simplification but much better one than left-right line is accepted in political science in academic circles. Once you think about it, it makes sense. And if you don't think there will be hand shaking with opposite polarity extremists, you really don't know extremists in reality (which is probably a good thing for you!).
Sorry, I've thought about it, but I still don't think a circle is an acceptable model for what many refer to as the "political spectrum". Instead of telling me that it's an accepted model by some academics, and that if I think about it, it will make sense, why don't you simply explain it to me? I say, if it can't be explained, then it doesn't make sense. ;-)
Better yet, let's forget politics altogether and talk about Pentax lenses, cameras, and photography. :)
take care, Glen
