But then you'd normally say something like "this has an interesting angle", "Not sure I agree with this article" or similar. And if not, and it was something controversial or not matching your earlier opinions, you'd probably be queried by others to see if you agreed...

Any post wants to bring something to a wider audience: I think most articles posted without comment, especially on an opinionated thread like this (and when they seem to side with a poster's previously expressed views), are here because the poster agrees.

I know, generalisations are always wrong <g>

Or because it's a subject on which my position is not clarified and I want to stimulate discussion. While I recognize that people often post articles the way you describe, I think it's risky to assume it.

Thanks. I do like to consider both sides of an issue. One would think that this thread, "A View From the Center", would be interested in more than one perspective.
