I'll concede that my statements are hastily made and likely 
ill-concieved. I have recently become much more stressed out with 
mundane matters (even before we get into the global politcal 
situations), which leaves me way less time for forethought and research 
when participating in newsgroup discussions. I'll just drop out of this 
one now before there is egg on my entire face.
