Boys - Thanks for the comments.....I love this sort of lively debate (am I sounding like Michael Landsberg yet?), even if I did have to risk appearing closet-racist like. Not that there's anything wrong with that - oh wait, there is something wrong with that.

I will try to flesh out my thoughts in light of your (all very different but related) opinions on the subject, but can't do it today. Strangely, I am being asked to work.
