It turns out not -- hell I even said 'But we can say what we think about it!' at the end of the second post.Okay, I may have put too much emphasis on the rather categorical statements at the opening of the post which certainly appear to proscribe the very idea of having an opinion on any voluntary and private transaction. That's certainly how it was taken by the recipient of the message, and that's how I read it. The caveat at the end didn't seem to carry nearly as much wait, but it was meant to. Sorry for misunderstanding you
Quote:My sidelong opinion is also a part of the discussion, regardless of if it is a popular opinion or not -- turns out it's not! At least, assuming it's read correctly. And I find it particularly intriguing that I'm being called out on for invalidating someone's opinion (which I have not -- it's good to recognize an opposing stance for what it is)...and then told in the same post that the idea that I have expressed here doesn't mean anything.Haha, I suppose, in a sense! Sometimes tautologies have a purpose... :-]
I've also enjoyed your opinions on the Au Ra as expressed in the rest of the thread!
