Thanks. I thought that might be the intent.

Any time discussions of politics, religions, sexuality occur face to face, there's always a chance of bad feelings arising. Doing it on-line increases the probability as readers haven't the subtle voice and body language signals. I believe that individuals stray onto these topics because they have both significance and history for them. Differing personal experiences yield different perspectives, each equally valid when viewed objectively. _________________________________________________________________ Add photos to your e-mail with MSN 8.
