I'm really not in the mood to get deep into this discussion. Simply put, whether you agree or disagree with me, there is a 99% chance that you will not change your mind. As such, I'm not adding my 2 cents to the aforementioned entry. I will, however, give a half-hearted apology for starting it with my reply to
policho. In hindsight I should have just left my opinions be without responding to his remark. But what's done is done.
