fwiw, I never thought you were irrational in the slightest. I just think its easier to attack critics of their own irrationality than defend on point. And even easier when there is the posibility people are actually irrational, like on these forums. Its just in my case, I have absolutely no misogynist bone in my body, thank you very much.

total political pandemonium this way lies.

I was so sure of the inevitability of lessons learned that I convinced my wife content were she was to come back with me to the states. Who was it that said no one ever went broke underestimating the american people? I wonder how many people have gone broke over estimating them.
