It's painfully obvious that my statement was pointed at both sides of the issue. The fact that you read it as being pointed "AT you" leads me to believe you could be. Reactions to statements can be quite telling.

You said "from both sides", and at that point in the thread, I wasn't aware that anyone else was arguing on my side. It was just by default that I thought you were referring to me; not that I took offense to what you were saying. No, I'm not an extremist, but I guess I'm asking you if you think I am.

I find it difficult to believe that this thread simply refuses to die a natural and dignified death of its own accord.
Look at the numbers. Give up and let it go. It's simply beating a dead horse.
