    Before you accuse me of censorship, maybe you could at least take the time to explain. Throughout this thread I've been more than willing to hear out arguments and change my mind. Not once have I shut anyone down. I didn't shut anyone down above. . . I explained my reason for not currently including the quote. That doesn't mean I can never be persuaded otherwise. I'm not going to add what I see as a superfluous, useless quote without a good rationale for it, though.

    Several people have made great arguments for why that particular quote shouldn't be included. The point of the index is to bring some clarity to frequently recurring forum issues / topics that Rich has given us an official word on. Adding this all-too-brief remark seems like it would only bring confusion. . . when we have a fuller and more nuanced expression of Rich's views elsewhere, why should we go with this very brief, old response?

    "And yet, will we ever come to an end of discussion and talk if we think we must always reply to replies? For replies come from those who either cannot understand what is said to them, or are so stubborn and contentious that they refuse to give in even if they do understand." - St. Augustine
