That's one thing I'm learning in life -- that if there's a "group" you tend to be critical about, just get to know someone closely assosiated with that "group," look for the good in them as a person, and you'll start feeling less critical of the "group" they're assosiated with.

I think there is definitely a time and a place to approach an issue when there is a "distance". If there is something that we sincerely have a problem with, is there even a place to sit back and say/do nothing? Not sure on that one, but often, the sit back and do nothing is our natural response. I find it interesting that this came up at this time, because there is this website that I have gigantic issues with. I finally read one thing too many and e-mailed the "editor". Some fascinating dialogue followed. Through that period of correspondence, I gained a different perspective of the individual's "work", as well as a new respect for him. Not that we see eye-to-eye or agree, and neither of us changed where we stand on the issue, but I saw the other side of the coin.

I am beginning to think it is completely unfair to make bombastic assumptions of one's work when I have absolutely no idea what the driving force is behind what they do. I may not change my mind when I do know, but I think it does us good to see what their motives are for doing what they do.

Probably the first time CLP has ever gotten "props."
