Lol. I actually put DC Tom in the category of "people with their heads on straight" but apparently he was too stupid or too butthurt to realize that. For example, I thought his comment about confirmation bias in this thread was spot on.
But oh noes! Mr. Free Time Southerner on the interwebz is threatening me with his Southern charm. Go ahead, waste your time. You're one of the other folks on here that I read regularly and often disagree with but genuinely respect. I know that's a hard concept for you to internalize but I genuinely think that's part of what it means to be American.
