I have attempted to read this thread and follow some of the arguments contained therein. I have some concerns:
The thread is too long and long winded! A forum is no place to write a book! Mr. Ex-Nihilio, while I appreciate your right to have a soapbox, and also thoroughly explain yourself, I want you to try and edit your thoughts and main points into more concise, easily readable entries.
Purpledawn seems able to have smaller posts. Lets keep this topic short and to the point so that people will actually want to read this stuff!
