Freix -

Yes, what you say is true. However one still needs resourses from which to gather the information which will ultimate shape and establish their own opinion/position.

You are probably much more aware of the structures and operations of these internet boards than I. Perhaps there is much more control excersized than what appears to be on the surface.

People, obviously, do establish their opinions in many different ways. And while some may not ever think for themselves and resort to just believing and quoting others, many do consult and search for appropriate information which will result with, hopefully, a more informed decision regarding the opinion they chose to support.

There will always be people who choose the shortest and easiest route to answers. I don't because I know in the end those types of people get exactly what the deserve. Nothing in, nothing out.

Thanks for the response, your words/comments/opinions, while sometimes provocative, are always stimulating. You're no doubt a very competitive person. "A player" as they say.

Always remember this axiom about life: We're just passing through!

Peace -
