What's wrong with being labelled a hypocrite?
Me, I have opinions. Sometimes people come to me with new facts, and I look at them, and think "oh, based on that, I'm wrong. Guess I'll change my mind." So I do. And sometimes other people come to me with more facts, and I change back.
If that makes me a hypocrite, sign me up. I'd much rather people thought I was a flexible thinker who's open-minded enough to be amenable to new facts, than think I'm the kind of person who has an opinion and sticks to it through thick and thin regardless of any new evidence which is brought forward. That way Creationism lies...
(welcome to h2g2, btw. Hope you enjoy it here as much as I do - it's great! Click on my name, there will, I hope, be at least one thing on or linked from my personal space which will raise a chuckle)

Well, I'm not really afraid of being labeled a hypocrite. I just don't often express an opinion on a subject until I've studied it enough to form a well grounded argument in favor of my opinion.
I wrote that in sort of free wheeling, half stupor. I needed something there. I saw pages like your's, and knew I had to put at least a little ramble. As I learn GuideML it will evolve into THE BEST DAMN PAGE ON THE NET!!! **diabolical laughter here**
