Oh... I don't blame Ken too much... The thread was becoming stagnant, and more patisan than normal... We're not unlike the journalists out there, in that we need "news" to sustain our debates.. We've pretty much played out most of the eventful news of the day and the lines are drawn.. And now we were spending more time on off-topic subjects and domestic politics.
