UPON FURTHER REVIEW: COMMENTATOR IS RIGHT

Having reflected upon the positive suggestions of a recent commentator, I have to agree. If I am trying to encourage the exchange of ideas in a mature fashion free of invective, then it is counterproductive to use loaded names, however well deserved. Accordingly, the "Witch" (terminology) is dead.

I thank the reader, or readers, for the thoughtful comments.

No, my opinion hasn't changed. I'm just going to describe her behavior instead of using shorthands to refer to her.

I'm not against elevating the dialogue, if that's possible in this area and this topic.

We'll see.

Not arguing with you, just not using any such terminology henceforth.

Thanks.

I agree... the tone of the debate has gotten too fucking shrill.
