Re: [EVDL] OT
I am amazed that this baloney of political correctness has inserted itself
into this list! Calling something stupid in no way affects anyone's
self-esteem; if someone's idea is stupid, I believe in calling a spade a
spade, and not pulling any punches about it! My self-esteem is not based on
whether anyone else thinks that my idea is stupid or not. Many brilliant
people have been thought to be stupid - Edison is one that comes to mind!
