To late... I already flamed you! ;)

Heh.

You do raise a good point though. I hope nobody on this list takes
offence to my debating of the issues. Only through a vigorous debate are
we likely to uncover the relative strengths and weaknesses of the
positions we hold on the issues in question.

If we all remain flexible in our views and adjust them accordingly this
can only help us strengthen our positions. And th, when we meet "the
dark side" in a debate, we can be persuasive and convincing!
