Disclaimer: These are opinion pieces and as you know, opinions change. Dennis is not claiming these opinions to be immutable (or even remotely correct), and indeed he constantly re-evaluates what he thinks and what he believes, as arguing for something purely because you did in the past is folly. Also the views and opinions expressed do not necessarily represent the opinions of yafla, and should never be construed as such.
