> Bobb, what you wrote makes sense, but I just want to ask why you didn't just ask Lostboy to explain his reasons for his opinions--just ask straightforwardly and non-critically?
His stance did not seem to me to be that approachable. I got the impression he considered his position to be axiomatic. He did not imply an interest in offering further explanation.
The bulk of my reply was toward the anti-BBob slant that developed in the thread, my goal being to debunk stereotypes in favor of and in support of more thourough consideration of all people. Uppity of me, eh?
