"Where do you see the self interest on the PfP thread?" However, I agree that "self-interest" IS the theme of the PFP thread. The founder is an unabashed disciple of the prophet Ayn Rand. For example: see #reply-19922289 where he states "I operate from the position that all actions are selfish ones. " LOL! Nicely done. Tom

"self-interest" is synonym for "point of view" - Then all points of view are merely self-interest including yours and all those expressed on Stockman Scott's PDP. Actually your equation of self-interest as point of view is pretty close to the Randian outlook you quote all actions are selfish ones - your version would be all points of view are selfish ones. Lindybill may have absorbed a bunch of that (silly IMO) Ayn Rand philosophy over the years but I don't see that that has anything to do with PfP. OK the above was my reply to your first five sentences. After that you veered off into an incoherent rant. You obviously have a great interest in the views expressed on PfP so continue reading - maybe you'll pick up something - and I'd suggest laying off the mind-altering substances.
