Trolling?? I'm not sure if that means looking for an argument on the topic,
but if so the answer is no. I'm honestly posting what I feel, and I expect
that others are doing the same. What I have a problem with in this kind of
format is that rarely are opinions expressed and left at that. Inevitably
the threads degenerate into bickering, insults, and rudeness. It'd be nice
if we could all remember these are topics of discussion, not arguments
between people. Less merry-go-round threads that way.

Throughout the day I've kept responding to the posts, but it's getting
obvious that new points aren't being raised, things are just being rehashed
over and over. Pretty much the answers I've posted all day are my
comprehensive feelings on the topic, so I'll settle back and lurk until
something new on the theme comes up, in interest of minimizing list clutter
of just repeating myself to different posters.
