Your comments are fine with me. But, if you feel uncomfortable talking about general subjects here, and would like to get something off your chest, consider going to our very own "political" thread: Subject 55221 You won't get as many "eyeballs", but who cares... ;-)

OT/That wasn't a rant, hawkeye. Way too short and mellow <g>. However, I'd simply add, before Shack scolds us all, that "bias" is defined by our own biases.
