Perhaps this observation is out of place... not really directed at the OP or the topic generally... but I'll risk it because: my mood.
It seems very pleasing to me that everyone in the dialogue has been kindly disposed and apparently sincerely interested in the topic. There was always something in me that anticipated some kind of nastiness from a commenter who wanted either to dispute the conversation, or the subject matter... it had happened so often before in that other place that I was expecting it was almost an inevitability.
What I'm getting at is that you all have made me happy to see that we here at DI can have discussions that other places can't really pull off because of people who are angry, dissatisfied, or socially compelled to be negative and confrontational for kicks.
Thanks everyone... for being who you are... and allowing others to be who they are...
Carry on please....
