Con (and others)-
Of course there are always exceptions that prove the rule. And I'll further
admit that I wrote the original comment in a state of exasperation, so of
course there is always the risk of hyperbole creeping into such remarks.
That said, I offer as a weak defense of my previous statements one word,
three syllables: GILEAD by Marilynne Robinson.
All the Best-
Brian
