Well, it's obviously the sore thumb sticking out, but that doesn't mean |
| 10 |
we "otta" make it two sore thumbs! =8^) |

In any case, just because I'm supporting what may be a compromise doesn't |
| 13 |
necessarily mean I support the convention one side was arguing, as the |
| 14 |
second-person "your" (whether singular or plural) would indicate. I'm |
| 15 |
more or less neutral on that, personally, only supporting it here as a |
| 16 |
way to work with the people for whom it seems to be an issue. |
| 17 |
Personally, if it comes down to the "It's a list of flags, called |
| 18 |
'RESTRICT' only due to historical reasons" argument, so be it. |
