Doyle;
This is the classic example of what is wrong with Pen-L.  You label  
this as a fruitless sub thread.  That disses me in an 'emotional' way  
since I have tried to answer you in a non attacking way.  I don't have  
to answer anything you wrote in response to my last response which  
might be of interest but if and only if it fits the narrow confines of  
permitted discussion here.  Your attack on irrationality is an  
adherence to a form of communication that is 'enlightenment'  
influenced impossibilities.  Bias can't be worked out of the  
discussion.  The arguments can't go on without emotional energy.  the  
functionality of discussion is really based upon irrationality as you  
call it.  What I object to is attacking people, and the more or less  
goal less discussions that don't accomplish much.  The lack of real  
working relationships between people to accomplish something besides  
showing off clear thinking.

Anyway, doesn't mean I don't appreciate your replies.   Thanks for the  
last come back anyway.
yours,
Doyle Saylor
