Personal position - 02/12/08
TO WHOMEVER MAY FIND IT OF INTEREST (not focused on anybody in particular):
My abiding interests are presenting and explaining whatever I can to help or to interest my friends here 'round the fire.
I have no interest whatever in defending or arguing any subject with anyone who's obviously determined to disagree, no matter what.
IOW, edifying discussion is vastly preferable (to me) to confrontation and contentiousness.
Even the most stupid arguments can be helpful by alerting me to points that I must be sure to cover or that I have to explain more clearly in my longer writings, so I often find 'em useful � but I'm not interested in bouncing BBs or buckshot off boulders here. So never be surprised when after a few posts I suddenly fall silent and post no more.
Fussin' 'n' fightin' ain't fun for me. Never were. Never have enjoyed watching others fuss, either.
