Good. Then neither of us will. I wasn't going to follow up in any case, regardless of reply. The lists have been around the block on this too many times already -- but I can't let a reference to abortion go by without at least mentioning the point. And I got a new formlation to use out of it. I like your "The real issue here is power." Of course I presume that recent events in Toronto have made you specially sensitive to the uses of power (and the terrors of non-power).
