Guys,
Don't you think that this has gone on for long enough now? The debate is
spiraling further and further away from anything that means something
and everyone has probably put to much effort in to concede. If you must
carry on, maybe you could do so in private?
Please remember that every message you send goes to hundreds/thousands
of others besides yourselves and ask yourselves how valuable people are
going to find this debate.
Thanks,
Dean
