[Contrarian]

<<<It is possible to be contrarian with a modicum of class.>>>

So true, and I count many Amati contrarians as my good buddies --- Mike Angelo, srvhap, Mark Lewin (at the outset), and even Salim who calls once in awhile, have been contrarian at different times. Yet no antagonism, no personal jabs, no misrepresentation --- just healthy skepticism.

Our current contrarian (this is for you SteveG) reminds me of autistics who can quote whole volumes of Shakespeare but haven't a clue why the Bard wrote, ". . . it is a tale/ Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,/ Signifying nothing."

Shakespeare gives more clues than life on any given day, but they go beyond the simple function of the brain. All part of the mystery that makes the journey so compelling. And why the rules of civil discourse apply here as much as anywhere else.

Just my take.
