When I first got on the net last year, sci.psychology was in the midst of an acrimonious flame war about the same topic where no one (as far as I could tell) was allowed to consider it seriously. I have been somewhat reluctant to mention it ever since. Thanks to you all. Has anyone saved these postings? I didn't think of it until too late but I would like to have them and summarize them. If you've got 'em, send 'em to me and I'll post the wrap-up. -christopher-
