I've already seen too much of that. I agree with you that many people are rigidly adhering to one view or the other, but I say, there's room for both!<br />Thanks for your reply.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06151823918670971538noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1076209360001263019.post-52162271110747648162011-07-12T10:14:29.019-05:002011-07-12T10:14:29.019-05:00My heartfelt thanks to you, pauldail.

What a wonderful venue you have to discourage the use of this awful word! You are in my book of heroes!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06151823918670971538noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1076209360001263019.post-10287748585808484562011-07-07T16:00:00.376-05:002011-07-07T16:00:00.376-05:00Personally, I agree with you.

I am still going to buy an ereader simply because there are so many ebooks out there that won't ever be a physical book. At least I don't think so.<br />But you know, what they say about opinions and well... nether regions. XD<br />But yes, people tend to be very close minded and only see things in black and white. Everyone who thinks they are anyone with a mind for technology will only cast out their regurgitated opinion of the future because they cannot see the grey of any ideal or situation. So sadly, you're going to get lots of people having pissing contests (forgive the phrase) all over your discussion. :(Mel Chesleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08200734886454147170noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1076209360001263019.post-30411331318581148802011-07-07T15:54:12.250-05:002011-07-07T15:54:12.250-05:00p.s.

As someone with a brother with Down Syndrome, it's very offensive. And as an English teacher, I won't let my students use it. I tell them that I'm sure they don't mean it as an insult to people with disabilities, but they need to be more intelligent in their word choice.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1076209360001263019.post-30505393712016420642011-07-07T15:50:54.952-05:002011-07-07T15:50:54.952-05:00Hey Joseph, just started following your blog.

It generated some great (and generally friendly) comments. Would hope you would check it out at www.pauldail.com. It's a relatively new blog, so I would appreciate your support, as well. This week's post will be up tonight. Look forward to communicating with you.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1076209360001263019.post-53663806163960637342011-07-07T13:44:15.783-05:002011-07-07T13:44:15.783-05:00Comments box = Pandora's boxComments box = Pandora's boxAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
