CJ,
If we didn't have this discussion I would have never learned about East Timor.

and if it weren't for watching 5 years of pissing i would know nothing about american politics instead of very little ;-)))

I conclude that pissing is the proper path to learning. Witness that as the piss dies down, the conversation turns to espresso, beer, and popcorn. Personally, I'd rather piss and learn than talk about food and drink.

I don't think this thread has fully died down yet
but yes, i agree that as with every heated argument there is a calm that follows where (some of) the participants realize how much they almost agreed all along.

For the record, you said to me "I find your posts insightful and thought provoking ... but" which is the same sort of technique you refer to above. Should we both retire it or continue on? I kind of like it myself and also thought it clever when you used it - even more clever than the way I used it

retire or continue the technique? or the discussion?
i doubt we could stop it if we tried! LOL
