I claim no monopoly on truth, if you believe one or more of my claims is |
| 17 |
insufficiently supported by my arguments please note it, and explain your |
| 18 |
reasons for a contrary view, I'll either explain my self better, or admit |
| 19 |
that I was wrong. |

Thank you, I consider that a more enlightened response than I've received |
| 30 |
from some posters. The truth is that I've enjoyed this debate, and though |
| 31 |
the course of explaining my position, have actually looked at some of the |
| 32 |
facets of the argument I'd not considered before. |
