This argument is a very broad brush, about the only specific is
that the NYT is full of ****...but we already knew that.

Did we?

All sane rational people do. Feeling left out?

Of a group that you consider yourself a member of?

Not at all.

I'm quite sure your definition of "sane" and "rational" are different
than everybody else's, though.

So is my definition of everybody.

So is your definition of "definition" apparently.

Confusion is your apparent expertise.

I admit I am cunfused by one thing: what worries you more, 2pid?
Global warming, or illegal immigration?

with three more walls to build (atlantic, Pacific and Gulf Coasts)
this is a moot point.

Excellent point, Clyde, but I'd still like to hear 2pid's response.

Or will 2pid (as usual) try to obfuscate and dodge? Or will he focus
on the typo I made spelling "confused"?

I anxiously await his response. I'm sure his reasoning will be
brilliant, whichever of the two is more important to him.

i will give you my response
i am more worried about illegal immigration
something can be done about that.
gw, questionable as to its extent,
its causes, and societal costs of remediation.
and effectiveness of any remediation.
a cure that won't even work might be worse than the disease.
but i have more serious concerns than both of these two items, anyway

Iran getting the bomb
who will end up controlilng the Pakistani bomb
wahtever Al'Queda might be up to
and whether tomorrow'sQ'Doba shells are gonna be nice and crspy.
