Owen Abrey However, I was appealing to your intelligence not from the whimsy of a Television show. We all know or suspect a profound bias there.

Joe R A Wilson never be silent Owen. You make people think, on both sides or better said, all sides of the debate. My brother and I have always been hard to change the opinions of, it's in the blood.
