I won't DDM. The whole point of a discussion forum is well....discussion. Whereas I don't agree 100% with everyone here ALL of the time, I do enjoy and find it educational to read posts from people who have differing opinions. I personally do like looking at all sides of a discussion so my opinion is a better informed one. I'll be the first to admit that I don't know everything, not even close. If someone has something to add, I am more than happy to read it even if I disagree. I'll tell you I do and why, *In a calm, and rational manner and as politely as possible* and add the information I based my opinion on. My hope is that I can get a response back so that I can discuss the topic further and explore it, maybe changing my opinion in the process.
I'm here to learn and discuss...and disagreement is part of the learning process I believe. If everyone agreed with me or I agreed with everyone, there wouldn't be all that much discussion!
Besides, DDM, whats right isn't always whats popular, and whats popular isnt always right.

Edit:
Wolfie, I agree with you!
