i am unclear about what objection you really have here, pan:
to my mind, this turned out to be an interesting conversation.
it did happen in a strange place, but things that way go sometimes.
you might consider that the topic was fruitful, even.
as for this thread reflecting some larger problem with "getting things done"--i dont see it. if anything, i would expect that the conversations here would point the other way: that it is, in fact, possible for folk who disagree to at least come to some form of common ground. it is just not easy to get to that place. and it does not dissolve disargreement.
