So you see Alan it is apparently OK to pollute the environment with=20
"sulfuric and nitric acid" as well as dispense garbage labeled as 'fact' =
as=20
long as his intentions are good...........
But then what do I know??

Nice post Jim, by the way. =20
Look folks, I've thought about it for a long time now, and it seems =
that there are just some things which should be kept off the list. For =
the simple reason that not only do we all have different opinions, we =
seem to live (sometimes) in different realities. Depends on what you =
read, and what you believe, but we really can, and routinely do, live in =
different worlds. Or at least we perceive our worlds from different =
perspectives. I was watching a debate on TV one night, and one of the =
participants said something like "I don't know what history books YOU'VE =
been reading, but they don't agree with what I've read." I thought, =
that's it exactly! When you accept certain things as fact, you act on =
that premise. I'm sure that some of the premises that each and every one =
of us has accepted could be fallacious. For instance, the issue of =
global warming; which scientist are you going to believe? The one that =
supports your own beliefs? In that case, you may have a different world =
view than I, and neither of us may accept a different view of our own =
particular reality.=20
Of course, you think "That idiot, can't he/she see the world as it =
is, it's as plain as day!" Sorry, perhaps that person lives in a =
totally different world, and trying to get them to see things your way =
would be painful for them, so don't even try.=20
Personally, I try to think objectively, not emotionally, and when =
presented with the facts, I can be pretty much counted on to admit when =
I've been acting on a false premise. But then, I live in my own world, =
so how could I tell?
