Horror! for once I may agree with you, as it does not surprise me either, as there seems to be far more openness in this forum than I would have expected. Also there must de an element of dissatisfaction to drive one to new ways of thinking, and the smug self-satisfied types that sit on the sidelines and carp very rarely are up to any sort of self examination, or inventive thought as such they tend to adhere to very dubious traditional ways of thinking.
