Doug I think you are being silly..do you really have a strong need to get hits? I must admit I love your sense of humor-but why the provoking bombastic people..and flooding the thread with dribble.. You seem to like to stir up the pot why not just start asking a lot of questions? stir up discussions where people are forced to think rather than follow. that wasn't nice of you concerning Zeev..he tries his best..I have a hard time following his posts though..he seems to come out with non sequiturs..ie yesterday for instance he implied that Hutch didn't know the difference between trade deficit and budget deficit..I wasted time to try to figure out what the joke was..I couldn't find it.. It is interesting that yesterday I did post to him that it is very dangerous for people to appear as "gurees"..(although Burt dolhmen might be a great one-guru that is) As one of my friends said most people don't like to think for themselves and prefer to follow somebody who shows total confidence.. it makes people feel comfortable as they are led off the cliff. then they usually get furious when they are drowning and blame it on the other.. I once took a social psy course given by a French professor..boy did we have trouble understanding his English..his course dealt with that..so when I used to watch Reagan non blink..and his karisma(sp) another ingredient the professor saw was mandatory..I used to smile.. If you don't have karisma..you won't get the blind leadership..
