(I know your comment is in jest, but it give me a chance to say this.)
The fact that our debates can include a variety of views - even from opposite poles - and still remain civil, gives me hope.
My impression is that last year you got a lot of strife from being a heretic (my favourite kind of person) and there was a period when you disappeared. Your contributions recently, imo, have been important to raising the level of debate. So - good to have you here ;-) You can't be me, I'm taken
