This is a hot button issue but please keep the forum in mind. Which, loosely translated, means keep the disucssion focused on the issue, not the poster. Passionate opinions are welcome but no hitting, spitting, name calling or giving dirty looks.  
Just a general reminder, doncha know.  
::ahem::  
Carry on.
