Why does it make me happy to know that somebody on this list has a son 
who does NOT write for a left-wing rag?

I really wonder how many of those nutty fruitcakes who, supposedly, 
believe all this tripe, are actually brainwashed / manipulated
into this, and how many have convinced themselves.

I feel extremely sorry for the former, and feel that a few classes in 
simple logic (a.k.a thinking things through in a sensible fashion)
would have done the latter a power of good.

As for the hoteliers of Bugarach; good on them; they made a fast buck 
and didn't give the suckers an even break :)

Quite honestly if you want to believe that the world is controlled by a 
sixteen foot, blue-and-green speckled sausage, go and believe it;

BUT; as soon as your belief system starts conflicting with observable, 
verifiable reality (and belief in a transcendental, blue-and-green 
speckled sausage is not empirically verifiable or refutable) it is time 
to take stock, and, just possibly, ask why God and/or evolution has 
provided us with
brains that can sort out the wheat from the chaff.
