Of course I would go, I would much rather find her interesting and enlightened. I see you only clipped my crudest remark - what about the other remarks I made? I did not just decide not to like her for no reason. I dislike her because she promotes a non-just system that is based on poorly conceived notions regarding the rights of people in this country.
I would love to talk to her and be wrong, I would apologize and correct my thinking if shown to be wrong.

I wonder if you might feel differently if you had the chance to talk with Oprah over dinner a couple of times? Or are you so disgusted that you wouldn't even go? Reed --------------------------------------------------------------------- Reed Konsler
