Paul, I think it is is cool that you are willing to rethink it, and not just because it supports my position, honest. Not to get too maudlin, but this list has caused me to think harder, and more deeply about many of my positions. I have changed on some and on those I haven't I'd like to think engaging on this list with you guys had made my position sharper and more well thought out.
