When I speak with my fellow engineers one of my comments is the one must realize the 99% of the people don't really know what a wall switch does. But in mixed company that does not go over very well. I am amazed at the absurdity of some of what I read. My daughter just sent me a copy of the O'Reilly Factor book. I have on several occasions disagreed with Bill. I thought that as I read the book I would find some places with flawed logic or rational. I must say that about 35% thru it I'm amazed at all the good advice and well reasoned arguments I've found. I also had my position flipped on the legalization of some drugs. And I'm not easy to flip on many issues. I was favoring making some drugs legal. I still have differences with some of Bill's positions but I'd recommend this book as a very good collection of stories and ideas that show wisdom and common sense. I am very impressed with Bill's ideas. The book has confirmed to me that O'Rielly is honest. tom watson tosiwmee
