Lelia opened the floodgate with her ill-chosen comment below her
signature. Gene's screed was merely in response to that. But I quite
agree that the subject, while vitally important, really has no place
here. Please keep those discussions private for the sake of the list. I
would LOVE to make point by point rebuttals myself to posts that have
already appeared, but I will not. I encourage similar restraint in others.
