I am confused by this thread. Not sure if your special day has passed or not, but if it has, I sadly missed wishing you well.
Always enjoy your perspective and ideas. (although at times we vehemently disagree). I suppose even in those cases, when the "other side" posts as intelligently and well thought out as you most often do, I can't help to feel that these differences are somehow diminished.
Very Happy BELATED birthday, JAM.
