Hey, Freddie,
If we all did what you suggest, goanet would be just
another bulletin board.
People in the middle-east are fighting and dying for
their causes. The Israeli-Palestinian dispute has
been going on since 1947. The caste system for
several millenia. So, the least we can do is talk
about it, if that's OK with you.
I don't know about you, but some of us, who started
miles apart, are coming dangerously close to agreeing
on certain points of fact. We can still disagree with
what those mean or what to do about them, but that is
what freedom is all about, don't you think?
Already, Afghan women are no longer whipped for
showing their ankles, Afghan girls can go to school
now, and Iraqis can even try to kill Allawi without
getting their tongues cut out or their women raped in
front of them. Slow but sure signs of progress.
Seems to bother some people no end. Wonder why.
If none of that is your particular cup of tea, use
your delete button. Mine works great.

Don't you guys think we should be bringing the above
debates to a halt? I'm not talking as a member of
the admin team here, but as an ordinary Goanetter
obviously feeling bad about everyone's mailboxes
getting battered and bashed with that
I-wanna-have-the-last-wordism.
Don't try too hard guys, we're not going to convince
anyone via cyberspace. Instead, just make your point
and leave it at that. You can at least convince the
silent majority about your intentions ;-)
